My favorite roast from the tiny touristown roaster where I used to live.

Organic, fair trade... I get 5lbs of beans at a time, last me about 5 - 6 months and is a better deal than the five or six roasters' products from around here and only two of those offer fair trade coffee. I'll spend a little more to support fair trade and local small businesses.
