Blind Dog Coffee

blind dog coffee roasts with the kind of focus that makes you realize how much slack you'd been cutting other places. gardnerville ranchos isn't a town people pass through looking for specialty coffee, which means the locals on pit rd have had to mean it from the start, and they do. the regulars here aren't casual about it, and that loyalty didn't accumulate by accident because people in small nevada towns drive past convenience for a reason. no corporate hedge, no middle-of-the-road sourcing decisions to keep everyone happy. if you're making the trip out to suite 8, go early, and order whatever's on the roaster's current rotation rather than defaulting to what you already know.
