So, how do we make sure you can get some of this fresh coffee?

Our "Roasted On" stamp All of our coffee is roasted to order and is stamped with a "Roasted On" date. We recommend using all your coffee within 6 weeks from this date. This is to guarantee that you get the best tasting coffee possible.

We roast in small custom batches Come visit our Roasting house; you won't see much roasted coffee just sitting around. That is because we are continuously making sure that we are delivering the freshest coffee possible, even if that means roasting only small batches. Freshness is a goal we strive for.

We have small minimum orders We don't believe in having a large minimum order, that way you don't feel pressured into buying more coffee than you can use in a month's time.

We use special packaging Since all coffee begins to deteriorate in flavor from the moment it is exposed to air, we put our fresh roasted coffee in a special bag that allows the carbon-dioxide to escape, but doesn't allow the oxygen in.

It doesn't mean that you can't drink the coffee past the 6 week date, but that it will taste flat, and not "quite right". To some coffee aficionados, the coffee will taste rancid. It's akin to eating a bagel a week after it's baked- it's not nearly as good, but it's certainly still edible. (But there'll be some New Yorkers that will disagree with that!)
