White Tale Coffee | 90 followers on LinkedIn. Every good book deserves a great cup of coffee! | We got our name from the classic Herman Melville novel, Moby Dick, and the quest for the white whale. "White Tale" is a play on words: white, from Moby Dick the white whale himself, and tale because we're inspired by the tales of our coffee and of literature. We hope to create a community of adventure-seekers who love hearing, reading, and creating stories!
