Coffee cup

Welcome to Asheville's premier roaster of specialty coffee!

"We buy pretty good beans and roast them as well as we can."


  • Mountain City is a micro-roaster of specialty coffee. We roast coffee to order and place the Fresh-Roast® date on every bag so you'll always know when your coffee was roasted.

  • If you're brewing your own at home, remember that we sell to everyone at the same price. There are no secret wholesale prices you have to log-in or have an account to see. Our prices are posted on-line, just go to our price list page. If you think coffee is getting too expensive in grocery stores and coffee shops, we agree.

  • If you have or perhaps want to open a coffee shop, we can help you select equipment, help train your staff, or show you how to brew the best tasting cup. Even try to talk you out of the idea.

They used to tell me I was building a dream, and so I followed the mob, When there was earth to plow, or guns to bear, I was always there right on the job. They used to tell me I was building a dream, with peace and glory ahead, Why should I be standing in line, just waiting for bread?


So you think things are bad now? Could be worse. To help out though, we offer our Recession Fighter Beans, a special value roast to ease the pain of difficult times.

Remember -- we can make your coffee taste better.
