“I sent my sister who lives in Texas some Cowboy Blend for Christmas – she’s raving about it!
Love the art on the bag, too. I’ve been using the small (empty) bags as stationary. Looks a little weird in an envelope, but man, what a great aroma when they open it!” Mary Morgan, Ann Arbor Chronicle

“I just received a half-pound of Lobster Butter Love this weekend (thanks to a recommendation from a student of mine at our university). I was pleasantly surprised to see the personal note on the receipt, and I am shocked that I am your first direct order from Texas. I just brewed a bit of the coffee this morning, and I was blown away…I won’t try to fake a bunch of cupping notes…let me just say that it was GREAT! Needless to say, I’m ordering more later this morning. Thanks for your excellent coffee and laudable customer service.” Tom Faulkenberry

“I am halfway through my one lb order of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe.
I have to say bravo! Your coffee is the best by far…I do appreciate the sample of the Lobster Butter Love.
Having a forced relocated to Colorado (the Michigan economy sucks), I’m happy that I can still get my Roos Roast fix through mail order. The coffee was fresh and aromatic, just as I remembered. thanks again,Your coffee is the best.” Mike Scholl

“Hello, I’m writing to tell you that I just love your coffee! I recently learned about it from a friend and have been buying it at Sparrow Market. I’ve tried many locally brewed coffees and have never tasted any that rival Peets coffee (from California). However, thanks to your Lobster Butter Love blend, I am no longer ordering Peets. Thank you!” Barbara Salem

“The Kona coffee was excellent. My wife and I enjoyed it very much. It definitely was very smooth. It went exceptionally well with the Raspberry shortcake I prepared for Valentines Day (made with a Chocolate shortcake instead of the plain shortcake).” Phil

“You did It! Geoff brought home your French Roast done Illy style- we just brewed it up in our stovetop espresso maker and I have to say it is Magnifico!!! It is truly perfect- deep flavor, no bitterness, grind is very fine- Thank you!!” Graceann and Geoff

“My son, Geoff Michael, brought me some of your coffee to try. I had it yesterday and today, and I think it is extraordinarily good coffee!. There is a quality to it that I can’t quite describe, but I’ll try: a wonderful depth of flavor, smooth [don't know if that's the right word to describe coffee], an overtone of something like chocolate. I don’t think I have the right words, but I think it is superb coffee.
Having lived in France when I was young [early 20's] I learned early what good coffee is, and in more recent years have spent a lot of time in Italy — thus I have been drinking Illy for many years. As a matter of fact, when we moved here from the East Coast in the late 60′s, Good Coffee did not exist in Ann Arbor, so I had coffee sent to me from New Orleans for years. In short, good coffee has been an important part of my life for many years, and I know a great coffee when I taste yours! Congratulations!” Margot Michael

“John, I bought a small bag of Lobster Butter Love for use at my b and b in Northern Michigan Neely House it was a smashing success! The guests loved it and so did I.” Joe Neely

“John, Thank you very much. You have a loyal customer here. I tried the coffee already and it is wonderful.
On an added note, before trying your coffee I wasn’t a coffee drinker at all. The extent of my coffee consumption was the occasional latte from Starbucks which, sadly, was the best coffee I could find. I have tried on many occasions to create a decent cup of coffee but I had no success until I tried your Mexican Chiapas with the AeroPress. Now I am drinking upwards of two large (and very delicious) cups of coffee a day. As it turns out, I don’t dislike coffee, I just dislike bad coffee. Keep up the good work, I look forward to the next Chiapas crop and whatever else you have in store for us.” Jens Wessling

“Roos, Just enjoying a cup of your awesome Lobster Butter Love that I made in a french press. Life is good. It’s been a blast getting to know you and your gang a bit at the farmer’s market. There is something so special about meeting people who are passionate about what they are doing in life. At the market that translates to the food that I’m eating and the relationships that I’ve built with local farmers and producers and artisans have come to mean a lot to me. It’s a wonderful experience to connect with the people who grow the food that I eat, to visit their land, to hear my name yelled out on a Saturday or Wednesday morning and be asked how I am, how my husband is. Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate you and love your coffee! Great job!!!” -Keri

“I must respond in earnest to your coffee roasting abilities and fine tuning of skill.
I first experienced Roos coffee at the home of my daughter and her husband, Amanda and Ryan Coulter.
I am impressed with the intensity of flavor as well as the smoothness of effect. My husband Jim and I have been fortunate enough to travel extensively, and have experienced my coffees throughout the world. In fact, enjoying as well as experiencing coffee wherever I am, is almost certainly a favorite pursuit.
I have to admit, you have essentially ruined any ability for me to drink inferior coffee. I am ‘HOOKED’ on your Organic Lobster Butter Love. I have a commercial espresso machine at home and I am anxious to try your espresso roast.” Martha E. Split
