I'm a current Tonx subscriber, and I bought Blue Bottle when you could only get it from that hole in the wall on Linden Lane.

But for some reason this announcement still feels like a loss to me. It's probably my aversion to all those SF people who rave about Blue Bottle, but get drinks that drown out the coffee flavor with milk and sugar.

But it'll probably work out for the best.

I agree. The beauty of Tonx is that it's all about the coffee itself. No milk, no sugar, no dilution. Blue Bottle seems more about the coffee drink and less about the coffee

The Blue Bottle siphon bar in Chelsea (NYC) is a bit of a step back in the direction of "coffee itself". The brew methods are on the fancy side, but you can get the flight of two siphon coffees and compare the different qualities of the beans and such :)

That actually makes me feel much better about the matter, good to know!
