Sleeping Giant Coffee Roastery (NO DRINKS - ONLY BEANS)

Crema's Take

This is a beans-only roastery where Jesse and Lauren have earned a reputation for some of the best coffee in Connecticut, particularly their Colombian and Ethiopian single-origins that roasters across the country are jealous of. If you're serious about home brewing—whether you're a pour-over purist or espresso fanatic—the flavor precision here is worth the drive, and the small-batch roasting means you're getting beans at peak freshness. Skip this if you want coffee to drink on-site, but if you want to dial in exceptional coffee at home, this is the real deal.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Quick-grab spot.

One of the best coffee roasters that I have come across in the US. The Colombian and Ethiopian beans are to die for.

Great spot to pick up freshly roasted coffee beans! Small operation, with great quality beans. I'm not sure if the individual I interacted with was an employee or owner, but he was very pleasant and helpful. Great service, and great coffee. Shop local!
