Our Roaster

Vortex Roasters

Pittsboro, North Carolina

We are outdoor enthusiasts and adventure travel addicts who have experienced a broad spectrum of coffee experiences over our careers and our travels, everything from gas station thickened drip reductions after midnight to elegant and sublime cups enjoyed in hole in the wall local cafes in foreign countries. As our appreciation and search for that elusive perfect cup expanded our knowledge, we regularly became coffee ``tourists``, searching out the best roasters and the notable cafes in nearly every city and town we visited. We became enamored by the art or roasting, the science of coffee bean selection and the intersection of those elements in creating the beans for the ideal cup.
