Rich is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about coffee from farm to roasting and it really shows in the quality of his product. Thanks Rich!
Stopped by for several bags of coffee to giveaway to friends and family. I must of spent over an hour chatting with Richard about coffee while he gave me a tour of the facility. He is very knowledgeable about coffee and has a true passion for his craft. Needless to say the coffee is excellent and very flavorful. Will be visiting again!
The coffee can’t be beat and Richie is amazing! I’ve been a customer for a few months now and won’t be going anywhere else to get my coffee beans. Great variety and selection of freshly roasted beans at a great price!
East Coast Roast has great, fresh beans expertly roasted and I haven’t found a bean I didn’t love. Richard is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, and also super responsive and accommodating to order requests. Great place to shop local on Long Island!
I have been looking for a local roaster since starting on my coffee journey and today I visited East Coast Roast in nearby Island Park. Richard is amazing. He gave me a tour of the facility and an education as well. Such a friendly guy!. I purchased two types of coffee, one for espresso ("MOORSE CODE ESPRESSO") and one for pour overs and french press ("COSTA RICA - TARRAZU"). I eagerly drove home to taste them. First the pour over. Wow! this is just what I had been looking for, a full body medium roast with a smooth and delicious taste and no bitterness at all. I normally drink pour overs with milk and sugar but this was so good I drank it black so as not to mask any of the full coffee experience. Next I brewed a shot of espresso and made a latte. Again I'm blown away at how good Richard's coffee is. I've found the best source for my coffee beans going forward. What a gem this place is.
Not your regular coffee beans from store. I used to order online medium, dark roast. After making few espresso and cappuccino from ECRC my wife and I will never come back to regular store coffee bags. Mild aroma of the arabica with long lasting oils and distinct flavors will get you hooked. The owner is a very nice man, patriot of his country and coffee guru. Come grab a bag.
High quality, fresh coffee, at a fair price. A lot of options to choose from
East Coast Roast is the best place to go for your coffee. Has a great selection of different rams from around the world. The beans are fresh and have a lot of flavour. Morse Code espresso is my favourite. Richard is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the different beans and process of roasting, and is a pleasure to speak with.
Exceptional coffee!! this is proper coffee. I brew single cups in an aeropress, typically 11g freshly fine-ground beans to 200g 185-190 degree water. pour water, use plunger to seal to brew for 2 minutes. gently swirl, leave for an additional 30 seconds, then slowly press. with this brew technique, all of the 5 flavors i tried are the best coffee i think i've ever had. Rwanda may be my favorite, but they're all excellent. Full of flavor, complexity, zero off-putting bitter or unpleasant tastes. incredible product, very highly recommended.
I got the Tanzania and Costa Rica beans. These beans are up there with the best, we love making lattes each morning. I highly recommend! Great coffee!
