Enjoy the Best Coffee a Nite Owl Has to Offer

WATCHMEN photographer Clay Enos has enlisted his Organic Coffee Cartel (OCC) to produce a first-of-its-kind movie tie-in coffee for WATCHMEN, the upcoming film adaption of the celebrated graphic novel. OCC has introduced Veidt Enterprise's "Nite Owl Dark Roast," a limited-edition confection and collectible designed for fans and organic coffee gourmands alike. A portion of the proceeds from the special roast will be donated to charity.

One side of the uniquely crafted steel can resembles artwork straight out of the WATCHMEN universe; the other side features Enos' striking black and white portrait of Nite Owl, played in the film by Patrick Wilson.

"Making an imaginary coffee into something real seemed like a fitting and fun way to honor the multi-layered world of WATCHMEN. And having a majority of profits go to charity seems a little like something Adrian Veidt would do," Enos said.

OCC is also sponsoring a contest for one customer to win two tickets to the Los Angeles premiere and after-party for WATCHMEN on March 3. Orders must be placed before February 26, 2009. Full contest rules here.

"Zack Snyder and the other filmmakers got behind the coffee idea early on and suggested the contest to me. I am so excited by the idea of making someone's day not just with great coffee but with an opportunity to be a part of the celebration for the highly anticipated film," Enos added. "It's a dream in the making."

"Nite Owl Dark Roast" Coffee is only available online while supplies last through the OCC's webstore at http://www.organiccoffee.com.
