    ITERRUPTION OF SERVICE: GOOD DOG COFFEE IS MOVING OPERATIONS NEXT SATURDAY APRIL 21, 2012 TO THE STATE OF GEORGIA AND UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE NOT BEE ABLE TO SECURE THE NECESSARY PERMITS TO CONTINUE OUR ROASTING OPERATIONS. WE ARE EXPECTING TO RESUME OPERATIONS IN MID-MAY. SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE. COFFEE CLUB ORDERS FOR THE MONTH OF MAY WILL BE SHIPPED ON APRIL 21.

    Good Dog Coffee Micro Roasters is a small family owned business. I grew up in Puerto Rico where coffee is one of the most important things of our culture and way of life. I spent most of my life in the coffee region of the island, between the town of Orcovis, Ciales and Jayuya. There, as a young adult, I worked in coffee farms and family-operated coffee roasting companies. I loved it! I was part wildlife biologist (my mayor at school) and part coffee-roaster/salesman (that's where my hart is!).

    My career as a wildlife biologist took me to Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland. I can't grow coffee here but I certainly can roast it! So, that's how all it started back in 2003.

    Now, although we are still operating out of our garage (yes indeed!), we are the leading coffee roaster and local brand of custom-roasted specialty coffees from Puerto Rico, Colombia, Nicaragua, and Bolivia. We custom-roast our Shade Coffee, Organic Coffee, Fair trade Coffee to order, meaning that we will only roast your coffee only after you buy it. It doesn't get any fresher than that!

    Why our name? Well, many people ask this question. It is simple. We love coffee and we love dogs! We strongly believe that dogs are a gift to us and have a vital role to play in our lives, both as companions and working members of society. Without them our lives would simply be incomplete.

    Just like our K9 friends that protect us, cherish our presence and complete our lives, we must do the same for our environment. That's why we only sell 100% organic coffee because after all a good dog would want to protect the environment. We only buy shade grown coffees because they protect the fragile Rain Forest canopy that supports threatened bird and plant populations. And we only buy fairly traded coffees from small farm coops because we believe that sustainable development can only emerge from good working conditions and wages. All that means that we deliver only the finest coffee in the world.

    On March 11, 2010 we received the Green America "Green Business Seal of Approval." Green America is a nonprofit membership organization dedicated to harnessing the economic power of consumers, investors and businesses to promote social justice and environmental sustainability.
    As a consumer, you can feel confident that business bearing this seal operate in ways that support workers, communities, and protect the environment.

    You can contact us at any time with your ideas or needs. We will do whatever we can to help!

    Sincerely,
    Leo Miranda
    Your coffee roaster

Personal Endorsements of GoodDogCoffee

The service and coffee are just the best! Hard to pick the best taste from the sampler as I loved them all

We are so lucky to have GoodDogCoffee at Bonanza. Leo roasts the best coffee around! Where else can you get your coffee beans roasted to your own personal taste? He has great customer service and is the one of the nicest people you will ever meet. Leo is always positive and pleasant and carries an outstanding product!

I purchased this coffee for my brother in law who loves good coffee as much as I
Like Mikey He Likes It!!!! I will order some for me as soon as I finish my store.Fresh is best .

Leo is a great Customer and Coffee Roaster! He has been so helpful with all my “quirks,” gone the extra mile and been most gracious with all our correspondence and interactions.
Our family owned a small coffee shop in the heart of Colorado Springs and it has been hard for us to find beans we are happy with. Raw beans are impossible to come by in Northern Montana, we are SO LUCKY to have found Leo among the Bonanza family. Our household (4 regular coffee drinkers) are most picky about coffee and we will not hesitate to continue to pick up our beans from Leo.
Leo even went the extra mile and sent us a sample of his fresh roasted beans. I could not wait to try them and we enjoyed every to the last drop. That pound of coffee only lasted 4 days.
If you enjoy a good cup of proper coffee, you need to give this seller a try!

Highest Regards for Leo of GoodDogCoffee. This is simply some of the finest coffee ever, and customer service…..perfection.

I made the first pot at my business this morning (**Oh My Goodness……Thank You for rescuing me from the coffee filter pre-made packs I have delivered regularly). So as I sit writing this endorsement…I’m having my first cup of this excellent coffee and the only way it could be better is for me to go and sit outside and enjoy the beautiful day with my coffee.

Thank you Leo, very much, and for anyone reading this…. I too am a big coffee drinker… and would recommend purchasing from Leo of GoodDogCoffee…. a wonderful Bonanza seller.

If you love coffee then look no further. I just this morning finished the last of my first order and I am now on my way to purchase a bigger bag :o) I highly recommend this seller of fine coffee.

This seller was gracious enough to send me some of his coffee to try out. What a treat! I am sitting here drinking a cup right now, enjoying every sip, both through it’s flavor and the way it invigorates me as I work on some very tedious reports that have to get completed today.

I highly recommend this seller and their products. What a great cup of coffee…and you must be a coffee connoisseur like me or you wouldn’t be here seeing this endorsement!

It doesn’t get any better than this! Mmmmmmmmm~
Wake up and smell the COFFEE!
