OUR ROASTING PROCESS

No Two Beans About It.

For amazing coffee, you have to start with the best beans. Only the highest quality green coffee enters our roasting facility. Our grade 1 Arabica beans, imported from the worlds best regions and finest farms, are meticulously inspected for quality and consistency. We offer a huge variety of single origin, signature blends, Fair trade, flavored, organics and decafs for every discriminating coffee drinker.

We specialize in traditional roasted coffees under the personal supervision of our two Roast masters. No two beans have the same characteristics; therefore, we roast individual batches of varietals and origin. Our roasting style is European, using cast iron gas-fired drum roasters that are strictly air-cooled, never water quenched. Additionally, we only roast for our standing orders, never stocking our shelves and running the risk of sending out stale beans.

The Perfect Blend to Match Your Taste.

Saxbys Coffee chooses only the best green beans to use in our gourmet roasting process. The beans are delivered to our roasting facility and roasted only after an order has been received. This means that all of our customers are receiving the highest quality, freshest beans available. Below you will find a brief description of all of the whole bean coffees offered by Saxbys Coffee.
