Sorry Starbucks, but on any given day we’d rather go to an indie coffee shop—especially one where the coffee is roasted on the spot. And luckily, we’re spoiled in OC: Kéan Coffee, Alta Coffee, Javatinis, Laguna Coffee are just a few of our favorites. We’ve discovered San Francisco-based GoCoffeeGo.com, an irresistible, uber-hip, one-stop shop for coffee lovers that brings together for the first time top award-winning roasters all on one site with one easy checkout. All coffee is roasted to order and shipped directly from the roaster to the customer. Nice.
Two passionate coffee connoisseurs, Elise Papazian and Scott Pritikin, created GoCoffeeGo.com for the novice coffee lover and the fanatic alike. Roasters featured on GoCoffeeGo.com include the award-winning roasters from the specialty and small batch roasting world: Equator (seen above and the exclusive roaster for top chefs including Thomas Keller at The French Laundry; Traci Des Jardin at Jardinière; and Pascal Rigo at La Boulangerie), Terroir, PT’s, Klatch, Higher Ground, Zoka and Metropolis Coffee, and the hottest in the new wave coffee roasting movement: Ritual, Novo, Johnson Brothers, Barefoot, Atomic, Coava, Cuvée and Verve Coffee.
One of the fun aspects is GoCoffeeGo.com’s Auto-Ship function, which is a Netflix-like queue that allows you to set up a list with the frequency of coffees ordered—and you’re charged once the coffee is
shipped.
