Black Mountain Coffee Roasting

a roaster that takes up real space in a small mountain town tends to either coast on the scenery or actually do the work. black mountain coffee roasting, out on north circle drive in idyllwild, does the work. idyllwild itself sits above the san jacinto valley at around 5,400 feet, which means you're already a long way from the nearest chain, and that distance isn't the point, the coffee is. regulars here are genuinely loyal, the kind of loyalty that doesn't get manufactured by a loyalty card scheme. what pulls people back is consistency from a roaster who chose a pine cove address over a more obvious market and kept showing up anyway. if you're driving up the hill on a weekend morning, north circle drive is worth the turn.
