I first bought their merchandise while I was in Anchorage Alaska
visiting my family a few years ago. Then when I further inspected some
of the products in the grocery store I also noticed that it had CJ and
then got really excited. I've got two of their coffee cups and a
t-shirt. Not to mention that their coffee is rather good. They have a
nice web site to buy from so I can grow my collection and buy gifts for
family and friends.

On their website I see that they offer not only the mug with this logo,
but
also t-shirts and more.  

The trademarked slogan for the Skookum blend is "kaupy kahkwa koosah"
(coffee like heaven).  The first phrase of CJ ever to be trademarked?

You CJ people will also notice that this coffee company, though their
store
is in Ketchikan, ships all orders from Tumwater, Washington...another CJ
connection.
