JBC Coffee Roasters Unparalleled quality, a human story, sustainability. www.jbccoffeeroasters.com Unparalleled quality. A human story. Sustainability. Cup Tasters, 10th place U.S.

Unparalleled quality, a human story, and sustainability – that’s our coffee philosophy. We won’t buy a coffee unless we know that it will inspire you. Often times a producer’s story gets lost in the coffee supply chain. It’s our focus to provide a seed to cup experience, honoring everyone involved. We purchase coffees directly from producers and through brokers who share our goal of making coffee

a sustainable commodity. Financially and environmentally, the coffees we purchase seek balance. Premiums paid for quality far exceed fair trade premiums and afford a more sustainable, honest model. Combine our coffee philosophy and passion for exceptional coffees with our down-home Midwest hospitality and that, in a nutshell, is JBC Coffee Roasters. We can’t wait to share our coffee passion with you. Named one of the top 25 best coffee roasters in America. ~Gear Patrol, Nov 2019

A rare opportunity to support female coffee growers in Rwanda! This special honey process coffee was sourced solely from women-owned farms belonging to the Abadatezuka Cooperative in Rwanda’s Western Province. Each contributing female to this special microlot received additional quality-focused premiums rewarding them specifically for growing exceptional coffee. This coffee is so velvety and winey with tasting notes of lime zest, apricot rose jam, raspberry, and cinnamon graham cracker. We highly recommend this coffee for any and all lovers of fruit forward, winey cups (think a Kenyan profile with a little Rwandan flair.) It’s just a small microlot, so grab some bags while supplies last!

A new syrupy and juicy coffee from Burundi! This particular lot is part of Kibingo Washing station's microlot program where specific coffees are isolated out due to superior cup quality. Our new Kibingo Burundi embodies all that we admire about the classic Burundi profile-it's bright, juicy, and laden with complex dried tropical fruit notes. This coffee boasts tasting notes of ginger peach puree, honeycrisp apple, panela, and lemongrass. We highly recommend for lovers of Rwanda and/or Burundi coffee profiles who appreciate gingery tropical fruit notes in their morning cup. It's a great summer coffee!

Flor Blanca Geisha is back! Just like its proceeding lot of coffee from the 2025 harvest that scored the #1 coffee of 2025 and an astounding 98 points at the Coffee Review, this new lot is likewise extraordinary. It is in one word: elegant. It exemplifies all the beautiful notes that we have come to love from the classic Geisha profile. It’s so floral (think lemon blossom, lavender, and jasmine), creamy, and vibrant, with tasting notes of jasmine, lemon vanilla layer cake, kiwi, and red berry compote. If you are a lover of the classic Geisha profile and want a coffee that represents all that is special about this coveted coffee variety, this lovely coffee is for you. We highly recommend snagging a bag while supplies last!

Wilton Benitez Pink Bourbon is back! Our most talked about coffees come from renowned coffee producer Wilton Benitez and this unique variety is one of his signature coffees. The Pink Bourbon coffee variety was first discovered and grown in Colombia and is known for its intense floral notes and pleasant acidity. This special coffee variety also has a higher glucose content which produces a sweeter cup and silkier body. Couple this unique variety with the meticulous and innovative processing at the farm level and the result is a delicious and memorable coffee. It’s juicy, sugary sweet, syrupy, and silky with tasting notes of guava, strawberry kiwi, blackberry buttercream, and lemon drop martini.

Sunburst is back for the summer! This limited edition seasonal blend is designed specifically for summer coffee drinking and really shines in a cold brew or iced coffee preparation. A blend of our Quqana Ethiopia and Asobombo Colombia and composed of the coveted Pink Bourbon and Ethiopia Heirloom varieties, this coffee is such a fun summery drink boasting tasting notes of lemon lime popsicle, s’mores, and magnolia. It’s delicious in any application but really shines as a flash-chilled/cold brew beverage with a nice syrupy body and refreshing summery tasting notes. Snag a bag or two today, put your feet up in the sun and get refreshed.

Our first time working with famed coffee producer Linarco Rodríguez and we couldn’t be more excited! What he manages to execute beautifully, is letting the coffee speak for itself while subtly and expertly enhancing the natural characteristics of the coffee with a unique aerobic oxidation and white honey processing. This refined coffee is so delectable and sophisticated with tasting notes of apricot, jasmine, cranberry tart, and sarsaparilla (think cola-like with vanilla, caramel, and wintergreen notes.) It displays all the characteristics that we adore about a classic Geisha profile (think elegant and jasmine-like) with a slightly enhanced fruitiness that is also effortlessly sparkling and clean. It’s silky, delicious, and comes highly recommended from our cupping team.

Our extraordinary Wilton Benitez ultrasonic SL-28 is back and we are so excited to announce that this same exact lot was just used this past weekend to win 1st and 4th place at Colombia's national barista championship! Edwar Rivas is Colombia's 1st place barista champion (no small feat in an ultra competitive competition featuring some of the world's best coffees), utilizing Wilton Benitez's ultrasonic SL-28. You know a coffee is impressive when JBC owner Laura writes bold caps on her cupping form, "Damn! What is that?!" and the cupping team says things like "Whoa, Whoa, Whoa" and "Holy Cow!" This unique and intense coffee comes from Wilton Benitez's competition series (the ultra special coffees he singles out for use in national and international barista competitions) and along with his unique anaerobic fermentation/thermal shock processing techniques, this specific lot was also treated with ultrasound. The result is pure coffee magic from the master Wilton Benitez himself. It's winey and super complex with tasting notes of cherry bubblegum, pink champagne, freesia, and huckleberry jam. Enjoy!
