Our Coffees
Good Dog Coffee Micro Roasters provides you with a “birthday” date in every bag of our custom-roasted coffees. Yes, each and every bag of our premium coffee beans will have a Roasting Date. This is the date when our master roaster actually roasted and bagged your coffee beans. In fact, this date will be hand-written and initialized by our roast master each and every time. This is all possible only because we roast our coffee beans one order at a time. So, each and every coffee bag is roasted just for you! Our expectation is that with this information you’ll be able to enjoy the best quality coffee you can have.
Many of our clients ask us if they should refrigerate the coffee beans or ground coffee after opening the bag. You don’t need to refrigerate the coffee beans or ground coffee at all. Just keep the coffee beans or ground coffee in a dark dry place (like the credenza) and this should work just fine for your coffee beans. For best results, we recommend that you use the coffee beans or ground coffee within 6 months of the roasting date and within 30 days after opening the coffee bag.

Bolivian Coffee – Our Bolivian coffee comes from the Yungas region (Caranavi, Apolo and Alto Beni). Most of these high-altitude, shade-grown coffee beans come from Colonias San Ignacio, Calama and Siete Estrellas. These beans were produced under the shading canopy of native trees. Beans were depulped and washed using pure Andes glacier-melt water, sun-dried on wooden table tops and hand selected by "Palliris" (Aymara Indian women food graders). This coffee is proudly custom-roasted by Good Dog Coffee Micro Roasters. Bolivian Decaf beans are decaffeinated by the chemical-free, water process, the preferred decaffeinating method. The water process (sometimes by the trademarked Swiss-Water® process) removes caffeine from coffee beans without the use of solvents or chemicals. Traditional decaffeinated coffee uses Methylene Chloride (MC) to remove the caffeine. So if you do not want artificial chemicals in your coffee, make sure you chose the naturally water decaffeinated coffee, even if you have to pay a little more.
