Review: Square Mile Coffee Roasters Ethiopia Mormora (London, England)

I believe I first heard of Square Mile Coffee Roasters back when I used to do a lot of browsing on the CoffeeGeek forums, to do research for notable roasters and to gather advice for what kind of grinder and espresso machine I should invest in. I don’t have a lot of time to visit […]

Review: Dark Horse Coffee Roasters Odd Harmonics Blend (San Diego, California)

I stopped into the Normal Heights location of Dark Horse Coffee Roasters on a recent weekend visit to San Diego. All of the bags on the shelves were very fresh, but this particular bag called out to me because I liked the art… I don’t tend to buy a lot of blends, but the combination […]

Review: Ruby Coffee Roasters Ethiopia Gesha Village Bangi Gori Gesha (Nelsonville, Wisconsin)

This particular coffee, from the Ruby Coffee Roasters website, intrigued me as soon as I read about it. I haven’t had the chance to try too many Ethiopian Geisha (also spelled Gesha) coffees, and this one was pretty reasonably priced, in my opinion ($23 for 12 oz). Most of the Geishas I’ve had have come […]

Review: Ruby Coffee Roasters Kenya Kiangoi (Nelsonville, Wisconsin)

Ruby Coffee Roasters came to my attention when I saw the Thrillist list of the 21 Best Coffee Roasters in the Country, published at the end of 2017. So far, I’ve tried coffees from 13 out of the 21… going to continue chipping away at this list in my own time! Nelsonville, Wisconsin is a […]

Review: Patriot Coffee Roasters Ethiopia Worka Co-Op (Lakeland, Florida)

Patriot Coffee Roasters came to my attention last year when they sent me a bag of their Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Idido and I absolutely fell in love from the first sip. It ranked #1 in my Best of 2017 list, and I definitely marked them as a roaster to watch. Before I had a chance to […]

Review: Cuvée Coffee Ethiopia Cuberow (Austin, Texas)

I found this bag of Cuvée Coffee at a different Whole Foods location than I normally go to – they had a slightly different selection than my local store, but this was the freshest option. I had just had the Cuvée Brazilian, so I wasn’t really keen to buy another bag from the same roaster, but this […]

Review: LAMILL Coffee Ethiopia Wote Konga (Alhambra, California)

A friend of mine recently told me about LAMILL Coffee and how she and her husband loved getting their coffee back when they used to live in Los Angeles. This friend has great taste in everything culinary, so I didn’t need any more convincing to check out this roaster! Little did I know that I […]

Review: PT’s Coffee Roasting Company Ethiopia Gedeo Natural (Topeka, Kansas)

Kansas might not be the state in the U. S. that first comes to mind when thinking about states with great coffee roasters, but I’ve been wanting to investigate coffee from PT’s for quite some time now, after seeing them mentioned on multiple “best of” lists over the past couple of years. It’s a new […]

Review: Heart Coffee Roasters Kenya Gachuiro AB (Portland, Oregon)

Oak Lawn Coffee isn’t super close to my home (around 30 miles) but I count myself lucky that I’m in that part of Dallas often enough that when I feel like treating myself to beans from Heart Coffee Roasters, I can just pop into the shop and grab a fresh bag. Heart is one of my […]

Review: Methodical Coffee Ethiopia Guji, washed (Greenville, South Carolina)

There’s no real system I follow when choosing coffees to review; some are sent to me by roasters, some are gifts from friends, some are coffees I seek out and buy directly from roasters’ locations or websites, and some just jump into my path while visiting coffee shops at home or in my travels. This […]
