Vermont Coffee Company Information

A FRIEND'S PHILOSOPHY Here at Vermont Coffee Company we try hard to be a good friend—locally and globally. Our motto, “Coffee Roasted for Friends®,” is more than a slogan, it’s really our mission, our reason for being in this business. Coffee is a social stimulus that brings people together to share ideas and stories, and when people come together, a community is formed and friends are made. We’re a small-town roaster located in Middlebury, Vermont. The big flavor and complex character of our coffees are highlights of our unique style of slow-roasting our beans in small batches—a process that founder Paul Ralston has perfected since the company began roasting commercially in 2000. As of April 2018 we're roasting all of our coffee using 100% renewable energy. ABOUT OUR COFFEE All of our beans are 100% certified organic. We source them from the great coffee-growing regions around the world, seeking out big flavor and bold character in the beans we choose. We've developed a unique style of slow-roasting our coffee in small batches, which caramelizes the beans and brings out the semi-sweet, chocolate flavor. WHERE TO FIND OUR COFFEE Our coffee is sold in chain grocery stores, local markets and food co-ops throughout the Northeast including Hannaford's, Market Basket, Shaw's and Costco. Products are sold nationally via the company's online store. Our visit us in person at the Vermont Coffee Company CAFE.
