The great folks at Larry’s Coffee in downtown Raleigh have a clear purpose: “to concoct wondrously luscious works of coffee and make the world better at the same time.” (It says so right on their website!)

• They slow roast their beans in small batches to bring out every rich layer of indigenous flavor.

• 100% of their coffee is Fair Trade, Shade Grown and Organic or Transitional Organic! (Their Organic and Fair Trade practices are certified and audited by Quality Certification Services.)

• They honor the work of their farming partners by transforming their extraordinary beans into marvelous coffees.

According to Larry (the founder of Larry’s Coffee) making the world better goes way beyond Fair Trade organic coffee. Larry’s green-o-vated his Bean Plant with passive solar design, wind-powered vents, rainwater harvesting, fruit bushes, and even dual flush toilets. Pretty cool! Of course, we wouldn’t serve Larry’s Coffee unless we thought it tasted good. And, we do. In fact, we believe it’s some of the tastiest coffee on the planet!
