    So, how to begin? I…read morelove coffee, my wife loves coffee, and for many years we have preferred to drink it hot and black. We are far from being kids any more so the need for sugar and milk/cream to mask the sometimes burnt or bitter taste no longer fits with our health and longevity goals, In the past, we drank coffee for the delightful effects of caffeine and we still do! However, about five years ago we discovered the world of specialty coffee and that was a revelation. We now drink coffee for the taste, the taste shaped by growing region, bean variety, soil, altitude, and a competent roaster. The main issue with seeking out such delicious coffees is affordability. Today, you can order all kinds of exotic specialty coffees from many fine roasters throughout the world and we still do. We just didn't want to go broke! What we needed was to find a local coffee roaster who could supply us with diverse, high quality coffee beans at a reasonable cost. We have found that roaster and it is King David Coffee Roasters located in Nashua, NH. We buy only whole bean, light roasted coffee from King David. Our favorites so far are: Organic Fair Trade Peru, Costa Rica Tarrazu, Ethiopian Harrah, and Tanzania Peaberry. We drink those coffees on a daily basis, but do stray every now and then and buy pricier coffees from other quality roasters. We do like our coffee! Since discovering King David we have been quite pleased with the quality of their beans and their value pricing. King David also stocks several dark roasted coffees. We don't drink dark roast, we don't like dark roast, we don't buy dark roast, so we withhold judgement on those coffees. King David does offer an espresso blend which we haven't tried, but our friend who we referred to King David bought their espresso blend and reported it made a very delicious espresso. King David is located upstairs in an older industrial/mill building on Bridge Street in Nashua. If you have the opportunity to visit them, you should - the atmospherics are quite charming, heavy beams, high ceilings, heavy doors, it's all there. The King David space is quite large and the center of attention is their Diedrich coffee roaster. You'll also be greeted by the owner/operator/roaster Carolyn Whitehouse. Whenever I drop in to pick up my beans she is there, and always busy with roasting, packaging, sales, etc. Sometimes there is a second person helping with production tasks but Carolyn is the entrepreneur carrying the heavy daily responsibilities. If you're lucky, you'll be there during a roasting session - ah, the Smokey coffee aromas are so wonderful. If you're very, very lucky, you'll be there during a maple coffee or maple popcorn production run. What a sweet and wonderful aroma! On those days, Carolyn hands you your bag of beans and that aroma is carried out of the building with that bag. It stays with you in your vehicle, gently fading away during your drive home! Of course, you could always skip the visit to King David, order your beans online through their website and avoid the entire sensory experience. Your beans will be delivered to your house via express mail - efficient but not nearly so memorable! King David offers frequent discounts on their offerings. You can check out their offerings through their website www.kingdavidcoffee.com They also have a Facebook page. We take advantage of King David's sales, buying several pounds each time with free shipping. We vacuum pack the beans in individual doses, and keep them in the freezer. This works out very well for us, as we are never out of fresh beans. If you are an avid coffee drinker you really should check out King David Coffee Roasters. Find them on their website, order a bag (ground or whole bean, your choice). Give them a try. These are good people, providing a great product at a fair price. If you love coffee as much as we do - you can't go wrong!

    Love King David coffee! Freshly ground and great service! I was able to stop by and purchase the…read morecoffee at the roasters location. 5 star

    First time having Smokestack Roasters at their food truck in Princeton. I had a caramel cold brew…read morewith a shot of espresso. Enjoyed the flavor of the fresh coffee beans!

    I was looking for a local coffee shop in the Fitchburg area and decided on Smokestack because they…read morehave a lot of good reviews. Unfortunately the food and drink didn't quite live up to my expectations. I ordered a cortado and a slice of carrot chai tea bread. The cortado had an unpleasant bitter aftertaste, like the espresso beans were overroasted. I did not realize the bread was gluten-free until I took a bite. The texture was good between the softness of the bread and the crunch of the pumpkin seeds, but didn't have the chai flavor I hoped for. I was asked if I wanted the bread warmed up and buttered so I said yes, not realizing the butter was an extra 75 cents until I checked my receipt. Feels like a bit much for a slice of bread that's already $6.75 (more than my cortado which was $4.50). On the more positive side, the shop is large and spacious with plenty of tables and chairs. There's a play area for children which is pretty cool if you have little ones with you. The ambiance is pretty unique since this is a repurposed garage. They seem very community-oriented with the event posting board at the entrance and the other local products for sale near the register. I would be willing to give this place another try should I be in the area again. I would just order a different drink and food.
