BEAR MOUNTAIN COFFEE ROASTERS    Mahopac \ bearmountaincoffeeroasters.com
What they’re pouring: They don’t have a physical location,
but fans of Bear Mountain Coffee Roasters can order their 50 different blends online or pick up a bag at farmers markets
and retail locations throughout the Hudson Valley. As soon as the beans are roasted, they’re delivered the next day, which preserves each blend’s freshness and flavor profile. (Longtime subscribers to their monthly program sometimes receive a surprise blend in their box, too.)
Brew this: Salted caramel, White Christmas, and amaretto are perfect blends for wintertime.
BIG MOUTH COFFEE ROASTERS     Beacon \ bigmouth.coffee
What they’re pouring: “Elevated house blends, as well as four rotating single-origin offerings where we like to nerd out and get a little more specialized with different varietals,” says owner and roaster Alex Finkelstein. In other words: something for everyone. All of BMC Roasters’ blends are made from a process called “seed to cup,” meaning that the coffee is planted, grown, harvested, and stored sustainably. Check out their brand new space inside an old auto body shop in Newburgh!
Brew this: The “Nicolas and Angela.” This Nicaraguan blend is a partnership with Gold Mountain Coffee Brewers and has notes of cherries, concord grapes, and vanilla bean.
COFFEE LABS       Tarrytown \ coffeelabs.com
What they’re pouring: Some of the tastiest beans in the world, which owners Alicia and Mike Love personally source from origin countries (coffee-growing nations) and sustainable farmers. At any given time, you’ll find at least 15 varieties available on-site, which the couple roasts in their Tarrytown location. (An Eastchester/Bronxville location is set to open this fall.)
Brew this: Pick up a bag from their line of “Relationship Coffees,” a category they devote to farmers who have become friends through the years.
