For the unaware, this is a mom/pop coffee company owned/operated by poison...
Ordered a pound each of the Ethiopian and the Guatemalan as a little birthday surprise for the special lady friend, who's a coffee connoisseur. Order shipped from CA to MA in two days... Contents smell phenomenal, and I could tell by palming the bags that the beans were extremely fresh and still oily.
poison helped through PM and answered a couple of questions for me so I could choose the right beans for her, so I just wanted to draw some attention to the company itself, as well as the customer service.
Have to hold off on brewing the first cup 'til the 23rd, but I'm looking forward to it... Will happily supply reviews of each.

I used to be in a barbershop quartet in Skokie, Illinois. The baritone was this guy named Kip Diskin, big fat guy, I mean, like, orca fat. He was so stressed in the morning...
Aside from quoting one of my favorite movies, this thread is relevant to my interests. Why you no plug your company Poison? I am a big fan of some gourmet coffee.

Wow, this is unexpected, ha. I'm glad you got the coffee OK, smitty....my suggestion is Ethiopia. I'm in love with that stuff.
I've been roasting for 8 years now. I apprenticed with a master roaster for 2 years, and have had my own business going for 5 years or so. I don't mention it here because it's not a coffee forum (though coffee IS the original preworkout ). But smitty let the cat out of the bag now, I guess. My day job, I'm a bodyguard for Hollywood celebrities, but I dream of beans. You ever see The Rundown, with The Rock? He's sitting in front of a mansion in his pickup, listening to a cooking show on AM radio, taking notes about chantrelle mushrooms or something, then it pans out and becomes apparently he's a bodyguard, sitting outside some rich guys house. That's me, except I'm smaller, poorer, and less handsome. I roast ever batch to order, and send it out by 2 Day USPS. I'm buying beans other roasters won't even think of buying, cost 2-4 times what most roasters use.
I've answered a LOT of questions in the misc about coffee gear. If anyone needs a new machine or grinder, etc, just ask. I don't sell it, but know what's good.~ Roast Master, Resident Coffee Warlock~

*Analogy time
Smits= _Smitty_
SAN rep= poison
West Coast Roasting Company coffee= poison #2
Dr. Feel Good= Rohypnol
A long time BB member known around here as Smits is a kind and caring gentleman. Unbeknownst to his lady friend, he surprises her with some of the best coffee known to mankind for her Bday- West Coast Roasting Company. A very convincing SAN rep persuaded Smits into buying this with his deception and pimpery. This SAN rep then slipped a Dr. Feel Good into both parties' coffee drinks....and well....if you have a dirty mind you can imagine what happened from there.Last edited by Supplement-Slut; 08-19-2011 at 02:16 PM.
