Miner Family Vineyards

This past fall, Miner Family Vineyards created their own unique blend of coffee. If you have not tried it yet, you are in for a real treat!
Miner Family Vineyard's, Dave and Emily Miner, Gary Brookman and Steve Gage along with Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company's Roastmaster, Charlie Sange and General Manager, Doug Dunlap designed the perfect blend of our freshly roasted coffees creating a medium-bodied, earthy blend with citrus and chocolate undertones. How could one resist?
Our company offers coffee cuppings by appointment and if your organization is interested in creating a signature blend, please feel free to contact our Roastmaster, Charlie Sange.

Hello 2009!

Happy New Year! We hope Santa treated you well and your 2009 is off to a good start.
This past holiday season, we were happy to donate to St. Helena's Root's of Peace Penny Campaign as well as to the Napa Valley Opera House. And, with your help, we were able to sell a significant amount of our 2008 Holiday Blend in which 20% of the proceeds were donated to the Salvation Army. Thank you!
Even though the Christmas decorations are down, it doesn't mean you can't come in and enjoy your favorite drink with family and friends. But perhaps this time over ice? Can you believe this warm weather we are having?
Also, come in and read our suggestions about what to do with recycled grinds. Help us in our effort to go green!

A Quick Roast.....

Here's the what happens to the beans during a roast:


Our Production Roasts are usually between 15-17 minutes. Here’s some video of roasting cut down enough to watch but it’s still a few minutes.
