Our Coffee Reviews
Over the last seven years, we've received literally hundreds of our coffee reviews. I don't think you need to see them all, so I will post the last 50 or so below. You'll get the idea. I've also included a few antidotal humorous emails.
And if you feel like writing us a review, we'd really appreciate that! Why? Because reviews are a big deal for how well we rank on Screwgle.
If Screwgle isn't your thing, then just shoot me an email or go to our Contact Us page and I'll put your review down below. Thanks a ton everyone!

The X Factor of Green BeansBecause I was buying green beans (they store much longer) & as a somewhat skeptical customer I was really impressed with the flavor but also their willingness to share how they source & tediously test their beans with exacting standards. Their knowledge of this art is impressive & won over this customer.
Their “passion” for great coffee is obvious…rumor has it they even spent their honeymoon checking out coffee tree orchards…………..by day😉. Please don’t tell them i let that slip? But try their beans, you won’t be disappointed.
Oh, one more thing. If you have never tried the X factor of roasting your own small batch. Some chilly Sunday morning take out your old cast iron skillet and try it. It’s fun, easy, fast, and like bread fresh from the oven compared to day old bread, just plain better.
I would add more but I have to go join my family before they finish off the whole pot without me.

Throw a rock hit a coffee shopIn a world infatuated with coffee, the Pacific NW where I live is at the top of the list. Throw a rock hit a coffee shop:) In other words, we have access to plenty of other coffee vendors. Located in gorgeous Coeur d’ Alene ID, Lake City Coffee stands out as a purveyor of truly delicious coffee beans.
Their secret? Well, for one thing how long they roast their beans. (Ask Russell he may just let you in on it.)

Best Whole Bean White CoffeeRussell and Alisha knock it out of the park with their roasts. Similar to many others, I’ve always had the typical burnt coffee from large corporation companies that clearly want to push product rather than take care of their customers. Lake City Coffee offers a wholesome and hands on approach while keeping their customers in mind.
On top of the freshest beans that taste wonderful, they also offer whole white beans. For those that have not had white coffee, do not confuse it with Flat White that you might find at a chain like Starbucks; it is instead a very light roasted bean that retains a high caffeine content and has a pleasant peanut butter aftertaste (don’t just take my word for it, try it yourself). As a healthcare worker that works graveyard, their product is a godsend. My partner and I love doing a 50% white/ 50% white blend. Give it a try 🙂

Great Coffee Same ValuesCoffee tastes great and I’m proud to support a Christian couple who share the same values that I do. I recommend you guys to everyone who I have over for coffee.

LOVE LOVE LOVE This coffeeThis coffee is fantastic and the owners of the company are as well. They roast and ship each Tuesday, making sure you have the freshest beans. So worth buying and supporting local as well. Won’t be buying my coffee anywhere else!

BRCC Forgot Their Customer BaseI was a BRCC customer from its beginnings, not due to political views but to support a veteran owned and employed company. When they chose to forget that the majority of their customers are conservative both politically and morally, that was a deal breaker for me.
So after 5 years as a loyal customer, I decided to find a coffee company that was exactly what they claimed, but also had superior coffee. It was a journey, but I finally found an upright company with excellent quality coffee in Lake City Coffee. Thank you for your commitment to what you love, coffee and customers!

I could not be more pleased…I recently made my first order with you for three bags of beans. I could not be more pleased with the coffee I received, and the values your company stands for. Frankly I don’t care what all you have to do in order to make things work in this economy (higher prices, etc.), as I fully intend to remain a customer of yours.

Rich and SmoothI don’t have a google account and am not interested in getting on their radar but would love to attest to how amazing your coffee is. The richness and how smooth your coffee is just makes a delicious cup of coffee that you would be hard pressed to get from other brands. John has tried a number of brands looking for what he gets in every cup of your coffee. Good job!!

Patriot Coffee CompanyHi Russel. I love the medium roast! I like the dark roast, but my daughter is not a dark roast person and impatiently waited for it to be gone so we could go back to the medium. I use to get coffee from black rifle coffee, but I was not impressed.
I was longing for good coffee so I (don’t laugh) did an internet search for a conservative or Patriot coffee company. I do not want to support a woke company. Your site came up and I began to read through your information.
I was thrilled to see that you are not only a Patriot, but more importantly, a Christian. Your “best cup of fresh roasted coffee story” sealed the deal. I had to try it. Now when I think of coffee, my brain brings the smell and taste of your coffee to mind. You were right and I’m glad I did that internet search.
