Welcome to Shepherdess Coffee
Delivering the freshest roast with the fullest flavor

Fresher is better
Coffee beans are the most flavorful as soon as they are roasted. We roast in small batches to ensure your beans are fresh and packed full of flavor.
- Our fluid bed roaster provides a cleaner cup of coffee than a traditionl drum roaster
- This type of roaster removes far more chaff, so the cup is much gentler on the stomach
- It's also more energy efficient!
Someday, we'll replace this text with something profoundly meaningful. You'll be so in love with these words, that you'll come back to read them time and time again. Each time you take a sip, you'll remember these words, and the roastmasters who wrote them. But for today, this is just filler text.
