Remember all the fuss over Murky Coffee’s Capitol Hill location closing? (The D.C. tax office seized the property and fined the manager $427,000 in unpaid sales taxes…) Well, the dream of fine coffee and free wi-fi in SE DC is not dead yet.

Former Murky manager Ryan Jensen bought the lease for the old Murky-occupied space and is set to open a new cafe with his wife, Jill. Fun fact: Ryan and Jill first met at the DC Murky, and married two years later.

Peregrine Espresso is the name of their new cafe, scheduled to open Summer 2008.
