Freshly roasted coffee beans online

Weepsie

Isn't Forsa Gala their espresso blend in the shops? When I worked in the IFSC, it was definitely my preferred coffee over Bear Markt, 3fe, Laine my Love (stupid name), Full circle (don't know if it's still in Jacob's inn) and 7 wonder who were at one point the only place to get some form of okay coffee in the area.

Yes, and it's a bit cheaper than a lot of other espresso blends as well.

I'm waiting on 2 bags to be delivered tomorrow, probably should have just went with the 1KG option.

B&D Order slow enough

Ordered on Monday and still not received

They also charge for delivery which seems out of step.

Do they not all charge unless you go over a large quantity? Any roasters you can recommend who do free delivery?

Vice on Abbey St have Square Mile amongst others

Weepsie

How Northside? Driftwood in Finglas have upside. Place in Smithfield also have Square Mile. Bang on the door of 3fe's roastery in Glasnevin or 3fe have a van outside Bernard Shaw in Phibsborough. 2 Boys brew would probably have some decent beans and I think a place across the road uses Full Circle

Hodors Appletart

3fe roastery is closer to me than driftwood

might chance that

Damo 2k9

Yeah I forgot about 3fe Van, grabbed a bag of beans there last week and it was roasted 3 days previous. Not sure youll have much luck at the roastery?

Weepsie

I had a bag of Ristretto that had been roasted within 3-4 days from Driftwood last time I was there.

There's also Bua on Mobhi Road now, but not sure what beans they use and if they sell them. Bang Bang sell Silverskin coffee too. If you're in Glasnevin/Finglas/Phibsborogh there are some half decent choice not a million miles away.

Kennedy's sell imbibe, but they haven't opened their Phibsborough shop in a few months

Hodors Appletart

I have a spiritual avoidance of BangBang, I'm sorry, I cannot and will not give business to a Bohemians-associated business

I also never frequent Des Kelly's for my carpet needs

Hodors Appletart

Ristretto is not a roaster I'm familiar with

Hodors Appletart

also, I've had an order in with B&D since Monday, and had a fairly snotty reply to a query I sent about

Nice as their coffee is, I won't be ordering from them again.

It costs nothing to be nice to customers asking about a delayed order. Nothing.

From up North. I hadn't heard of them either, but a boards search a while ago seemed to suggest they were once fairly popular and one of the limited choices on the island for single origins and stuff, a bit of a forerunner so to speak.

I have only tried their burundi, and seem to remember enjoying it black, but I then also got the Coffee Collective Kieni about the same time and enjoyed that one so much that anything else wasn't as good to me.

Got my order from WCC, ordered a kilo of the Fafa Reis as was lovely the last time I had it and a bag of the Halo Beriti.

Still amazed how they manage to get it from Cork to Dublin the day after roasting when I've had orders from Dublin roasters take several days.

Weepsie

There's a larger volume of stuff to be organised from within dublin before being posted out again tends to be the issue I think.

Same with An Post. I've sent stuff to all ends of the country and had it arrive quicker than things I've posted inside the county

Ponaire have lovely decafe. Mahers coffee in cork also do one that's decent, although the ponaire is the preferred one in this house.

Imbibe started doing a decaf recently, available in 250g or 1kg quantities. I've never tasted it, but as a rule I really enjoy their stuff.

West Cork Coffee's decaf is a big hit in this house and fairly good value.

Weepsie

The dreambeans/green bean roasters decaf is very nice too. It's nicer than at least 2 of the caffeinated ones I've tried.

The Cloud Picker decaf, I didn't like.
