Friday 5: Mark Whitney of Reve Coffee Roasters

Mark Whitney is a SCAA/BGA Level 1 Certified barista at Downtown Lafayette's Reve Coffee Roasters. What that means to laymen like you and me is that the man makes a mean cuppa Joe! The St. Martinville native is all for spreading the java joy around town.
