Will order some tomorrow.

Unclebeanz, Killerbeans, and all the online retailers are about that price, give or take a few bucks.

The best thing to do is try to find a local roaster near your house.

Here, there are a few and Whole Foods roasts a few times a day and does a great job and there is no shipping when you pick it up yourself.

CCM coffee in Tampa is also a family owned business and has been for years. I beleive they are from Cuba, were recommended to me by Mr Moo.

I buy lots of green beans from them and they also roast and sell that way.

Great prices and normally the beans arrive the next day from Tampa.

Edit:

Wow, just checked roasted beans and there Colombian Supremo is around 6 bucks a pound! That stuff rocks.
Also, my mistake, they are from Spain.

Thanks.
Will give CCM a shout tomorrow.

I have a Whole Foods in Boca.
Didn't know they roasted their own.

Whole Foods by me has a huge roaster and several bins with beans roasted that day. I'd imagine your does too.

The staff is great and will always recommend stuff.

I don't have a Trader Joes here, but hear they do the same.

A quick search revelaed a Cuban Coffe roaster very close to your house....

Wow.
That is literally down the street from my old office location.
Thanks.

Pete,
That place you found near me is neat.
Just went on their site.
$9 a pound for two of the three espresso blends.
One is a special one at $19 a pound.
Will probably go by there tomorrow to check it out but won't buy any until I get my grinder.

Pete,
These are nice folks.
Just spoke to them.
The location near me is the main plant but he said to stop by and he will take care of me.
When I introduced myself and notices his accent, we went off in Cuban Spanish.
He told me he will give me samples of all their stuff to try.
Looking to head over there in a while, around lunch time.

Glad to hear, but not surprised.

Coffee folks seem to be a lot like cigar folks; eager to share and exceedingly kind.
