About the Roasters
For more than 15 years, Asheville Coffee Roasters has been roasting
the freshest beans for local residents, restaurants, special events
and loyal customers on both coasts—from New York to Seattle.
Andi O’Gorman and Greg Bounds founded Asheville Coffee Roasters
to provide a fresh alternative to stale, shelved and mass-produced
coffees.
We started as an artisan roaster, hand-roasting small batches
of the best varietals from around the world. We continue this tradition
today, cooling and packing our specialty roasts daily in foil-gusseted
packages with de-gassing valves to preserve freshness.
Over time, we‘ve perfected the French roast that is now our signature
coffee, Pitbull on Crack. We roast our organic beans at a
high-temperature listening for that important first “crack.” We
sample the lightly roasted beans to ensure a quality roast but
leave them on the fire until the second “crack,” which sounds decidedly
French.
