Our Story

After meeting in 2014 on a trail run outside of Harrisonburg, VA, Jose and David quickly learned they both shared a love for coffee and enjoyed the challenge of sourcing green coffee from countries far away and roasting it for their friends and family. After kicking around the idea for a few years, they took the plunge and set out on an adventure of starting Chestnut Ridge Coffee Roasters.

OUR COFFEE

Every coffee has a story to tell. Tales from the high mountains in which they were grown, the hard working hands that harvested it, and the mills that processed it. We take great pride in being one tiny step in our coffees’ long journey to your cup. Our goal is to roast each bean to tell the tale of its adventure.
