We select only the finest beans from growers around the world, often cupping samples from as many as 12 different importers. Once we have chosen the beans which are up to CCR standards, we fresh roast and blend them each day, roasting only enough for orders shipping to customers that day.

Is this a lot of work? Yes. Does it make better coffee? Yes.

Keeping coffee as fresh as possible is the key to great coffee. When you go the extra mile to purchase only the best quality coffee, you want every cup to be perfect. If Chicago Coffee Roastery's name is on it, you can expect it to be "a cup above the rest".
