isadorah Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I would play along, but it's kind of pointless since I have never tried the local roast. could be a good excuse to sample the local roast. cup of joes was quite nice back in the day when i was in college, the one on hillsboro street not the one in the strip mall on avent ferry.

poppydawn Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I would play along, but it's kind of pointless since I have never tried the local roast. Get out there and try them! Geez. There's nothing quite as lovely as having a cup of coffee in the same room where the beans were roasted. Unless they're burning a batch of beans. Then nothing is quite so vomit-inducing. You know what's really bad? Being hung over in a neighborhood with a Folger's factory on a day when they've burned a batch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jenbobblehead Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I've tried my local roaster, and I don't like their coffees. So I confess I'm a Starbucks girl. I always enjoy their custom blends that have a short run ... I'm currently using my last batch of Black Apron Exclusives, the Columbia Narino something or other which I really like, and now I don't think it's available anymore. Oh well, back to Cafe Verona for the time being. you know, you could find some cool online thing, or pick up some coffee when out following the Wilcos, and then you'll GET some cool coffee to try! surely there MUST be more than one roaster in the area, Wendy!!!!

Three dollars and 63 cents Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 That works out great I didn't sign up sooner because I've been traveling for most of the last month. I'll be home at the end of next week, though, so I can go pick up beans to send then. I know just the kind to get, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
