Fresh Roasted Coffee From Amora Coffee

Amora Coffee is a good coffee place. Why? They are a small team of coffee (and tea) lovers focusing on directly delivering the highest coffee quality to your door. Amora Coffee also supports bringing clean water and sanitation to over 10,000 people in the remote Jabi Tehnan district of Ethiopia. 

Amora Coffee has proudly roasted coffee in the USA for over 10 years, using quality coffee beans and a 9-stage roasting process.

Amora Coffee and Santa Barbara UPDATE 2023

Amora Coffee has now become part of the Santa Barbara Coffee Roasting company.

Unfortunately, the roaster at Amora Coffee passed away, and Santa Barbara has taken over their roasting business.

Santa Barbara has been a family-owned business for over 30 years and is committed to hand-crafted coffee ‘as fresh as fresh can be.’

Who is Amora Coffee?

The Amora Coffee Company was founded in 2011 by Jim Fosina. The story goes that Jim was visiting a small coffee roaster and experienced the fresh flavorful fragrance of roasted coffee. 

From that moment, Jim was hooked.  

Jim wanted to ship the coffee beans right after they are roasted so that you can relish the peak freshness window of the beans and enjoy their great aromas and taste.

Consequently, Amora Coffee’s mission is to bring freshly roasted coffee to all Americans. They make a wide variety of roast coffee with flavors that suit any coffee lover. They supply and deliver fresh coffee direct to your door in about two days for most states. 

Remember, that the coffee beans you purchase from the stores may only be a shadow of their former self and have probably lost some of their original roast flavor, freshness, and taste. That is why freshly roasted coffee is best!

Amora Coffee is located in Montgomery. Alabama. USA. 

The Coffees Made by Amora Coffee

All the coffees are freshly roasted and hand-packed in foil-lined bags to protect the flavor and aroma. The coffees are not available in any other store. If you want Amora Coffee then you need to buy it from Amora Coffee.

If you like aromatic, fresh coffee with classic flavors shipped directly to you then Amora Coffee should be on your list. 

The grind size of most of the coffees is about medium grind which is better for drip coffee machines and pour-over coffee machines.

Most of the coffees are blends with light, medium, dark, and espresso roast profiles. Amora Coffees include…

• Five original blends – Elegante, Vigorosi, Espresso, Intenso, and Delicata.
• Two fair trade organic blends – Medium Roast Sumatra Permato Gayo and Dark Roast Sumatra Permato Gayo.
• Twelve flavored blends including Caramal Vanilla Coffee, French Vanilla Coffee, Chocolate Truffle Coffee, Hazelnut Cinnamon Coffee, Birthday Cake, Southern Pecan Coffee, Blueberry coffee, Chocolate Cherry Coffee, Peppermint Mocha, Chocolate Macadamia Nut, Pumpkin Spice Coffee, and Cinnamon Spice Coffee.
• Specialty Blend Coffees include Hawaiin Coffee Blend, Dark Sensation Coffee Blend, Peaberry Blend from Tanzania, Guatemalan El Pacayal Coffee Blend, Anniversary Blend, and Cold Brew.
• Seasonal Flavored Coffees as they become available throughout the year.
• Bundles. The bundles offer a bit more value because you are essentially buying two or more coffees at a discount. You can also bundle coffee with a drip coffee machine.

All coffees are Arabica coffee. Most of the coffees are available in ground coffee and whole bean. Most of the original and flavored coffee blends cost around $14.95 per 8 oz bag. The Fair Trade blends are about $22.95 per 12 oz bag. The Specialty Blend Coffees are about $16.50 per 10 oz bag.

Amora Coffee also now offers various teas. However, since this is a coffee site we will just review the coffee!

Let us look at some of these coffees in a bit more detail.
