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 have visited most of them and fortunately all of them (and many more) have a roast to order service with one or two day delivery.
It’s fun to experience different roasters and beans as they are so easily accessible here.
