My daily driver!Full time traveler here (@whatrvdoing)! Being on the road has its challenges. There are so many coffee shops that do not produce quality roasts. That said, and thanks to these guys, I have been able to get my beans delivered anywhere in the country. Big shout out to Ryan from customer service, he is amazing. Go for the single origin 2 bag subscription so that you have variety in your daily brew. My personal favorite is Kushikama from Kenya.

Hey folks very interesting place from the outside you would never know that all this wonderful coffee comes in to the world from this location well a few other locations as well we met Candace today and unfortunately we didn't read to see that they were close, but she was kind enough to let us in and take us on a little private tour And she gave us some coffee. We had a great time. Thanks Candace for letting us in and can't wait to see you guys on Friday

I visited this fantastic coffee wholesaler a few weeks ago for their coffee concentrate event! They have manufactured a prepared coffee concentrate that can be diluted and used in everything from lattes to espresso martini. They plan on selling to shops, bars, and restaurants. They drizzled some of the coffee concentrate onto ice cream, which was amazing! I can't wait until they start supplying local stores. Hopefully, it will be available in stores for customers in the future!

I went to taste coffee at Friday morning 10:00 am. The shop had a cheery and relaxed vibe. Add great coffee plus a knowledgeable host.

Yo my local coffee roasters. I picked up a bag of your big trouble beans at Whole Foods and just made the best latte I've ever made. Y'all are awesome. I wish I would have given you a try sooner. Looking forward to trying more of your lineup.

This is definitely a place for a true coffee lover because they don't play around with their coffee and there's no where you can add milk! I came on Friday morning where they have the coffee class and they first greeted us with a cup right when we walked in to wait for everyone else. Then we sat on the steps and they shared more about the culture of coffee and try a couple of their blends. It was really cool to also hear from the other attendees and get feedback on what they think of the coffee. They don't sell coffee here but you can still get some when you do the class. They also did an expresso demonstration after which i was too hyped up for more but it was cool to see them make it. Overall a cool experience, especially if you like coffee or just want to learn more.

Went here for a tour not too long ago. The coffee I sampled was really good, probably better than most types of coffee I've had including Dunkin', Starbucks, McDonalds, Pete's, Panera, and many coffee houses. The people who work here are very kind and their presentation is definitely unique. They have a good coffee product.

I purchased a new Baratza Encore coffee grinder based on positive research. Next, I researched coffee brands and settled on Lavazza Classico whole bean and Counter Cultural Apollo. The Counter Culture was my favorite. I took two sips and new it was a perfect match for my taste buds. No bitterness or aftertaste and it truly compliments breakfast foods...especially Cinnamon swirls. My last thoughts at night are looking forward to my Counter Culture coffee the next morning. Great organic Ethiopian beans from the land of coffee and surprisingly they are roasted in my home state of North Carolina. It’s a win-win!

If you're a coffee lover, Counter Culture Coffee is a must-try! I've been buying their Forty-Six blend regularly for almost two years now, and it never disappoints. As someone who prefers darker roasts, Forty-Six has become my go-to after trying many different blends from other roasters during the pandemic.Counter Culture roasts their beans and then immediately ship them to you. I live in California, so it takes a little bit for the beans to arrive, but they're still super fresh when they do. And the freshness really shows in the taste. The hints of tobacco and dark chocolate in Forty-Six are just heavenly.While I haven't enjoyed their Big Trouble and Gradient blends as much as Forty-Six, I still appreciate the effort that goes into creating such diverse flavors. And their customer service is pretty good too. I've had to email them a couple of times, and they've always been prompt and helpful.All in all, if you're looking for high-quality coffee and exceptional customer service, Counter Culture Coffee is the way to go. I highly recommend giving them a try!

Finally made it to a Shift Drink today!I loved the Pink (Peppercorn) White (Chocolate) Mocha that was the signature drink today and obviously it's for a good cause too

The coffee is so so (even their dark roast doesn't seem as rich as other coffee brand beans), but their packaging is extremely cheap! Good luck trying to reseal a bag once you have to destroy it to try and open it. Too bad they don't have the aluminum foil coated bags that the more established and successful brands use.
