Contrabean Roasting Company

I placed an order here to try out a different local roaster and liked it so much I started a monthly subscription as soon as I was a week away from running out of that order. Amazing quality! I do local pick up so I cannot comment on the shipping process in any way, but everything else about this company is amazing. Transparency and traceability are extremely important to me and this company is doing it right!

Great coffee

I have a coffee subscription from Contrabean, and both the coffee and the consistency of the service have been wonderful.

I purchased both the Nicaraguan decaf and the Kenyan peaberry and both were fantastic in pour over and as Japanese iced coffees. I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of roast date as it was a home business but the peaberry was roasted the day before. Pick up was easy and contact free in these COVID times. Would definitely purchase from them again.

My partner and I started the monthly subscription in January 2022, so we've so far received 4 different bags of coffee. I've honestly been going to bed earlier because I'm excited to wake up and drink excessive amounts of Contrabean in the morning! The power of great beans! I became really interested in single origin coffees quite recently when I, like many people, discovered James Hoffman's YouTube channel. Ron's subscription has been like a crash course in the big fragrant beautiful world of coffee. This month's beans are a beautifully rich and balanced Colombian and my personal favourite so far, a Guatemalan natural process coffee. It's like drinking a blueberry dessert! Who knew there was this much variation possible within a black cup of Joe. Very impressed and excited for next month :) highly recommend!
