Always on the lookout for great roasters (I generally buy a bag of fresh roasted when I am visiting someplace). So who is your favorite local-ish (not necessarily around the corner, but at least within a reasonable driving distance) roaster?
For me:
- Virginia (northern): Cafe Kreyol
- Virginia (eastern shore): Eastern Shore Coastal Roasting Company
- Virginia (Hampton Roads): Pale Horse Coffee
I’m in the Portland area and am partial to espresso, I have had some of the best luck with Stumptown and Autumn.
Same. Stumptown
We also drink our coffee sideways up here in the upper left. The 45th parallel is crazy.
