Crema's Take
“Aromatic Roasters is a coffee lover's dream for those who crave variety and quality in every cup—their monthly subscription service delivers rotating single-origins that feel like gifts, and they've mastered both the classics (their espresso and pour overs are stellar) and creative challenges like genuinely excellent decaf iced lattes. The vibe is refreshingly low-key and laptop-friendly, perfect for settling in with a quiet morning or lingering over a meticulously crafted Kenyan pour over in their pleasant, unhurried atmosphere.”

I love this roaster. I get coffee on a monthly subscription, and it is like Christmas each month when the coffee arrives! Always something different, and ALWAYS high quality. Ethiopia, El Salvador, and MY FAVORITE Jamaican Blue Mountain make excellent espresso, pour over, and cold brew. Easily worth the money each month. I bring it to work since i cant consume 8+oz per month and the small office staff loves it. I even needed to make 'Welcome' gifts for my church to welcome new people to the community and they made individually wrapped bags with their stickers (i asked them to put their stickers on it). Thank you Aromatic Roasters for this wonderful product. I do, and will continue to recommend this to all my friends and businesses i use.
Its hard to find decaf iced coffee, but you can get it here! Ordered a salted caramel decaf latte and it was amazing. Caramel can be too sweet sometimes, but this was a wonderful blend. I could taste the bitterness of the espresso and the sweetness of the caramel, without one overpowering the other. Highly recommend!
Nobody in line behind me so I say “Hi” and am met with a blank stare. She halfheartedly said “what?” And then I proceeded to order an iced americano. She asked 4 shots and cream? I asked “this is for a friend, and she didn’t specify. Is that the standard way they’re served?” The cashier said “it depends on the person” dead-eyed. I told her I’ll go somewhere less angry 😅
Cool place no longer on a brick and mortar location. Very nice people and staff. I am a cold brew drinker, so for me it was not the best, but their lattes and other coffee types looked amazing.
Delicious coffee in a very pleasant atmosphere. Had a nice quiet morning here with a great cup of Kenyan coffee.
