About Us

October of 1995, we began Dawson Taylor Coffee Roasters in response to the need for a local roaster of exceptional quality coffees. Dawson Taylor Coffee Roasters is named after our son, Dawson Taylor Ledgard.

We have been sourcing, buying, roasting and blending specialty coffees for over 15 years. We utilize traditional European-style drum roasters, and strongly believe this hands-on method ensures that our coffees are crafted to perfection, resulting in maximum flavor. We roast our coffees daily and deliver or ship it within 24 hours.

The environmental and social concerns about coffee-growing regions are significant, and these concerns are of paramount importance to Dawson Taylor Coffee Roasters. We source green coffees directly from the farmers as often as possible. Personal relationships and visits to the farms ensure the quality and availability from crop to crop.

We know that like fine wine, great coffee can provide a virtually limitless flavor experience, and it is our intent to bring that level of quality to our customers via a true artisan coffee experience, with special attention to grinding, brewing and serving coffee to precise standards.

We invite you to join with us on our journey to reveal the essence of specialty coffee and the exquisite culinary experiences it can evoke. We trust that you will be completely satisfied should you select Dawson Taylor as your coffee roaster.
