☕🦜 The Legend of Tutu the Cockatoo

Long before she became the face of Bodéga Bean Co., Tutu was a curious little cockatoo residing in the charming town of Murfreesboro, TN. Every morning, she would perch above the café stalls in the bustling downtown area, captivated by the steam rising from mugs and the lively chatter that accompanied the sun’s ascent. Tutu wasn’t seeking crumbs—she was drawn to the enticing aroma.


One crisp autumn day, a gust of wind carried the harmonious blend of freshly ground coffee and steeping chai directly to her beak. It was a magical experience—warm cinnamon, roasted beans, and a hint of vanilla. Intrigued, she followed the fragrant trail to a quaint corner coffee cart operated by a traveling barista who noticed her fascination. With a playful wink, he presented her with a tiny cup of oat-milk foam, just for her. From that day forward, Tutu became the cart’s unofficial greeter, gracefully dancing and fluffing her feathers whenever a new brew was prepared.


Her pink bow? A token of appreciation from a tea merchant who believed she brought as much joy to the market as his finest Darjeeling. Her name? Inspired by the graceful twirl she performed whenever the kettle whistled.


When Bodéga Bean Co. heard her captivating story, they recognized her as more than just a market mascot—she embodied the essence of what coffee and tea enthusiasts cherish most: the ritual, the warmth, and the sense of community that arises around a shared cup. Now, Tutu carries this spirit into every sip, reminding us that the best brews aren’t merely tasted—they’re experienced.
