Welcome to Grains of Sense®, your source for fresh, hand-roasted USDA Certified Organic, Certified Fair Trade coffees.
Grains of Sense® is located in historic Staunton, Virginia; a quaint, vibrant community in the heart of the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. We offer our coffees through local area Farmers' Markets and have expanded sales to coffee shops, retail outlets, restaurants and bed and breakfasts in Virginia and neighboring states.
Our coffees are individually roasted on-site, by hand, fresh to order. All of our single origin coffee offerings are USDA Certified Organic and support global fair trade initiatives.
We are truly certified...
 Grains of Sense®, is an inspected, accredited and registered USDA Certified Organic Processor as reviewed and authorized by Pennsylvania Certified Organic (PCO).
 We are also an active, registered and certified member of TransFair-USA - a program that ensures that the growers whose coffee we feature receive a fair price for their coffee, and a fair wage for their efforts.
 In addition to our coffees being certified Fair Trade and USDA Certified Organic, our Grains of Sense® coffees have also been certified as Virginia's Finest from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. The Virginia's Finest Program was developed and introduced in 1989 to identify, differentiate and promote top quality Virginia-produced and processed agricultural products around the world.
Grains of Sense® roasts customer orders as received, in small batches, with impeccable detail to enhance the regional flavor nuances of each coffee bean, while considering the roast darkness preference of each customer. As such, it typically takes 48 - 72 hours to roast and ship coffee orders from the date the order is received.
We consider roasting coffee as fine art...
To paraphrase an old cliché, 'there are roasters, and then there are roasters'. For some coffee roasters it is simply a matter of dumping in the beans, pushing the start button and waiting for the timer to sound.
At Grains of Sense®, we consider roasting coffee as fine art. Like an artist, whether a master painter or sculptor, minute attention to detail is paid to every step and aspect of the roasting process - bean selection, time, temperature, fan speed and airflow, each being recorded and documented - until completed; each roast a masterpiece.
We encourage you to taste the quality, depth and richness of coffee achievable with our roasting process.
Purchasing fresh-roasted Certified Organic, Certified Fair Trade coffees simply makes sense... Grains of Sense®!
