Mother Lode Coffee Roasting Co.
Truly Fresh Gourmet Coffees
Steve and Linda Ritz established Mother Lode Coffee Roasting Company to provide you with the best and freshest coffees from around the world. Our love for specialty coffees and our desire to see that perfect cup of coffee led us to begin roasting in 1993 in the Sierra Foothills of California. Gourmet coffees have been compared to the making of fine wines. Purchasing only top
grade arabica green beans is essential. Arabica is a botanical name for the kinds of coffee that are grown at a higher mountain elevation and produce a higher grade of coffee bean. Each bag, or "lot" of coffee must be sample roasted and "cupped" (tasted) for quality. (Most canned coffees are usually from a rougher quality bean called robusta.)
The roasting of coffee can be compared to that of a Master chef. Steve has mastered this art of roasting and is able to offer you the finest in coffees perfectly roasted in our small batch roaster. Many of the coffee beans are brought to a Full City Roast which brings out their smoothness and richness. Darker still than Full City Roast, is Italian Roast, and finally, the darkest roast, French Roast.
With a great deal of care, Mother Lode Coffee Roasting Co. offers you the finest for a satisfying and delicious cup of coffee.
