Hey everyone,
I thought, as this is a pretty small community, it would be interesting to have a discussion on everyone’s favorite rosters in their region/country and what kind of coffee you like best from there.
In Belgium, I really like Mok Coffee in Leuven. They have some solid Ethiopian roasts.
I really enjoy Black and White coffee roasters of of Wake Forest, NC. They experiment with a huge variety of things. I choose from their single origin options every time I’m low. From clean to funky, I really enjoy getting a new experience with each new bag.
I subscribed to them a few months ago, they are fantastic. Some of the tastiest and unique coffees I’ve had.
Nylon Coffee is skate or bicycle away from home.
They also drop freshly roasted beans on a vending machine so I can pickup beans anytime. I prefer african/floral variety so skipped their South American heavydeliver-to-home-subscription.
I’m in USA,
They’re not close to me, really, but same country.
But when I order, I get coffee that was roasted within the last couple days. Good variety of roasts, and I’ve never disliked anything I’ve tried, all high quality.
edit Oh, this post is 2 years old. Well it’s still a good question! Hopefully this community picks up with all the new users.
I’m a former employee. My experience there wasn’t great. Owner treated employees poorly.
OTOH you aren’t going to beat their prices anywhere else, but the main reasoning for that is they try to keep costs as low as they can and push the employees to get everything out same day to keep orders coming in. It was pretty exhausting and there was a high employee turnover.
If you’re on a budget they’re fine. If not, go elsewhere.
Well that’s a bummer to hear, maybe it’s time to check out the current options again.
