Customer TESTIMONIALS

“I have been enjoying the Monsoon Malabar a great deal in multi-cup days. It is a very congenial cup. And so low acid, it is an easy quaff even in the late afternoon. And I have been using it to make a "throughout the day" pot. I am currently reading "A Genteman in Moscow" and it seems to me to be the "Count Rostov" of coffees. Always charming, and eager to put you at ease... without, however, being at all shallow. As for the Timor? Clearly less of a gentle cup. And, as always a blazing superstar for that moment when you need one good cup of coffee (and no more) that will close the deal or get you going. Basically, the Mariano Rivera of Coffees. I was teaching an 8:30 class this past quarter and at 6:15 A.M. wake up, the Timor was my go to cup to shake off sleep and realize the magnitude of possibilities for the coming day.” — Clark

“This month it’s Zero Prophet Coffee from Washington, Conn. They roast the coffee in their garage, which I love.” - read the full story in The New York Times. [A version of the article appeared in print on April 16, 2023, Section MB, Page 2 of the New York edition with the headline “A Candle Seller Sniffs Out Inspiration.”]

“Thanks for the beans! We’ve lived in Woodbury, Berkeley, Pittsburgh and New York over the past few years and your beans are consistently the best we encounter.”
- Will

“We’re still enjoying the Hidden Valley as that was new to us (although I’ve had it at the restaurant). My husband is thrilled. I had been buying coffee in Brooklyn when I’d be in for a photo session at our old haunt and I’m so glad to have found your coffee! We ordered my mom our set up (Moccamaster and Encore burr grinder) too because she liked coffee at our house so much. You’ve made sheltering in place so much nicer for all of us.” - Lindsey, @ Lindsey Victoria Photography

“You make Boom! coffee.” - Itamar Kubovy, Pilobolus

“By far my favorite of all small batch roasters… Whenever I travel anywhere, my “souvenir” is always a local small batch coffee if I can find it. Out of all of my travels, both in the states and abroad, I have not had better. Lucky me! You are in my good ole state of CT so you are local!” -- Lisa W.

“We tasted coffee from roasters all over the world and found our favorite right here in Washington.” - CT Table

“The only thing better than growing up being surrounded by books is growing up being surrounded by coffee.”- Katharine Benson, KB INC.

“My wife and I actually first tasted your coffee at the Pine Leaf Cafe when it was open before, and we have never forgotten about your coffee ever since.” - Daniel

“What can I say! Can’t leave without your coffee. Great web page 🙂 and the best coffee I ever tried. Coming from a coffee country!”= Diana Gutierrez (from Colombia)

“I've been buying great coffee beans from around LA for years and never got the desired effect during drip pour over coffee, where when you first wet the grinds it is supposed to bubble up in a really cool beautiful way. It only would sort of happen. Then when I used Nick's beans it happened for the first time!!! The cup of coffee I've made for the last two days is especially amazing.” – Sarena

“I didn't even like coffee until I tried Zero Prophet Coffee!” – Carol Steer, The Smithy

“Your coffee rocks!” – Kathy/KMR Arts

“Simply perfect. It’s the balance… I guess you have to roast your own to get it right.” – Michael Maren

“I show up and reach for the bags of coffee, bang! the iron cage drops around me and suddenly there’s a crowd betting on a cage fight between me and a black bear, and when the fight’s over, the cage is lifted, and i’m bloodied and tore up from that bear, we can sit down, watch you roast up some imported panamanian beans, but not inside your study/man cave, but now the garage to keep fumes out of house, and then we’ll sit together in the twilight enjoying a robust cup of aromatic espresso, counting our blessings, and feeling that, hey, maybe life’s not so bad after all. but then the bear breaks his chain, which nobody saw coming, and we all have to rethink our lifelong held attitudes about guns and animals, but suddenly the bear’s eyes soften, he raises his bear nose in the air, and he points a bloody claw at the espresso machine. i’ll be goddamned if that bear didn’t take a seat while nick brewed him up a cup of panamanian, and that bear, like some furry cuddly friend, sat with us watching the sun set over sabbaday lane, sipping nick’s finest, and share a moment of communion among god’s creatures as we think to ourselves, hey, maybe life’s not so bad after all, when wouldn’t you know it, the black bear’s lover comes out of the woods and he does not look happy. even though nick offers him a cup and a chair, this angry bear is under the absurd misimpression that the black bear is having an affair with one of the humans or, it’s not exactly clear, it’s not easy to communicate with this second angry, confused bear, but we try, lili tries to explain that this is an affair all right, a COFFEE affair, innocent as the day is long, but this angry bear wants nothing to do with it and now, again, there is screaming and fighting and gunplay and bloodshed and” – David O. Russell

“Joanne and I thought we knew what coffee was until we encountered Zero Prophet. With our first sip of Zero Prophet we became addicted to the incredible quality and taste of the coffee. At times we had to return to mass produced beans but once you experience Zero Prophet – you can never go back – and we never will. It is great fun choosing from the vast assortment of quality beans!” – Gil Rubin

“I have been a big fan of your coffee for several years now. I look forward to being able to buy it locally here in NYC.”– Arnie Himelstein

“The taste……so smooth and real…” – Christine

“I know we don’t have class, but can I have some of your coffee tomorrow?? It made me jittery all day, but I had so much energy that I played really well in field hockey and we have a big game tomorrow…” – Callie Miller

“…can I order more coffee? and gladly pay as it’s the finest coffee in the land…and when the bags get empty i get a little sad” – David O. Russell
