You could even change roasts on a monthly basis with a blurb in the magazine about the blend...they have more than enough, and almost all are outstanding (no Daybreak for me!).
From Wikipedia:
"In 1990, on a trip to Denali National Park in Alaska, Caribou Coffee was imagined by newlyweds John and Kim Puckett... Following several years of mixed performance, the Pucketts sold their controlling interest in the company to Atlanta-based Crescent Capital, which has since changed its name to Arcapita.
"The First Islamic Investment Bank of Baharain has a large financial stake in Arcapita, Caribou Coffee's parent corporation, and in 2002 Yusuf al-Qaradawi's involvement with the bank led to a protest of Caribou Coffee. That same year al-Qaradawi stepped down as chairman of the bank's Sharia board."
