Joshua Tree Coffee Company

coffee shop owns own rostery.. coffee itself is tasty.. ive asked for latte art and was told it can only be done in a latte not in a flat white.. so i said ok whatever - u just love latte art thats the most important.. pics show what i got.. .. well .. far from latte art.. the ladies were friendly the guy not so much.. location is perfect.. and the color of the paper cup: AMAZING!

As a coffee aficionado, I can say the cappuccino here is really good. They have a great variety of coffee beans to choose from, and the shop has a nice vibe. The only downside is that they serve coffee in paper cups instead of real mugs. Also, there are no tables inside - seating is available only outside.

The shop is very nice. It was clean amd well decorated. I stopped by to get a pound of locally roasted coffee beans. It was busy and it was about a 30 minute wait in line. Opened the bag the next morning to make coffee. This is the most over roasted coffee I have ever purchased. The beans are very dark and super oily. The coffee comes out very bitter. Not worth the wait.

Super cute swag sold inside however, the wait can't be a lot and they only had one person working. There are parking spaces right out front. The milk was steamed pretty perfectly for my mocha but the flavor was highly intense. Not sure if it was an espresso dial issue or if the beans were just burnt but I didn't end up drinking my drink.

Update - Zero response from the company when I shared roast date and photos. That’s quality customer service right there… Inconsistent at best. First order of the First Roast was fantastic. Zero bitterness as I was recommended. I bought the 4lb bag to avoid shipping and it showed up looking like it just took a bath in olive oil. Light to Medium roasts should never look that oily, and neither did my first batch. Unless it's old or burnt - which is what it tastes like. When I reached out to the company. All they could tell me was what ratio of beans to coffee to use. I weigh out my coffee and water daily. I know what I'm doing. Disappointing.
