I just heard about this new coffee shop in Tucson called Sparkroot. They have a small web site up at sparkroot.com, and it looks like they’re serving Blue Bottle Coffee (from San Francisco) — the first in Arizona.

The shop is owned by Ari Shapiro, and is still under construction. It is located at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Congress Street. They’re planning to open in July. Ari also owns and operates Xoom Juice, a Tucson juice company with 4 locations.
