brown & jenkins coffee roasters

Best place to go to learn about how coffee is made and where it comes from. It smells absolutely amazing here and so welcoming! Very inexpensive place to stop while on the road for some fresh brewed wares. Not a tourist trap and definitely worth the stop. I wish I could find it back home in NJ or as a K Cup. In the meantime, I'm going to fight my Keurig laziness and try to brew in a k cup converter. :PCan't get back fast enough!!!

First, I am a huge coffee drinker. I drink at least a full pot of coffee every morning and then a cup or two in the evening. From the minute I walked into this place I loved it. They have many, many coffee choices and the young lady at the counter was very helpful and knowledgable of the coffees and flavors.I bought several pounds and sampled a bunch of different types of coffee. I settled on the Black Ice and another robust bean. We also got an Ethiopian blend for my wife, who prefers a more mild coffee.DON'T MISS THIS PLACE!!!!!

We stopped in on a sort of chilly overcast day. We really didn't know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised once inside. This unassuming coffee company has a huge variety of coffees available. There is truly something for everyone. The day we were there we were lucky enough to be able to talk to one of the previous owners and get a full tutorial on how he roasts the coffee. I love coffee but I can honestly say I've never had the opportunity to stand over a batch of it as it is being roasted and cooled. We got a few bags of beans ground the way we liked it and made ourselves some coffee to go. They even have and interesting selection of coffee flavored seasonings and food to choose from. Definitely worth a stop...particularly in the winter when it is so cold out.

I was having a bad day, so my husband suggested we go find coffee. Well, when we got there, the gentleman who was roasting (he said he was the previous owner) told me to make myself at home, prep my iced coffee the way I wanted (and I learned a new trick...I freeze coffee and use that as cubes so it doesn't get watered down). That sea salt caramel iced coffee was fabulous. You wont find starbucks drinks, but you will get some freshly roasted coffee. We also bought some biscotti...maple walnut so good. My husband had never seen roasting coffee before so we stayed and the man explained everything so patiently to us and the other people there. I could not pull my husband away he was so fascinated. I usually hate the way the smell of coffee lingers on my clothes...but all day long I could smell the divinely roasted coffee on my shirt. We will be buying the reusable k-cup for our Keurig now and ordering our coffee from Brown & Jenkins!
