Which on-line coffee seller delivers the freshest coffee?
I want to buy a rich, full flavored Colombian Supremo.
Any help appreciated.

Ristretto Roasters (http://www.ristrettoroasters.com/) is by far the best IMO.

Counter Culture Coffee (https://www.counterculturecoffee.com/) is extremely well-liked in the obsessive coffee/espresso community. They guarantee that your order is roasted the same day it is shipped, so it doesn't get much fresher than that!
Stumptown (http://stumptowncoffee.com/) and Intelligensia (http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/) are also very good.
Just choose the one closest to you, or that you like best, and you'll get your coffee at most one to three days after roasting. And, in fact, coffee needs to rest a couple days after roasting, anyway, so you'll get it at its absolute prime.

If you can find a local place, that's even better. I get my coffee from a little Arab shop down the street.

I drink coffee from these guys every day. They have a number of different beans available. They roast in their store. They provide coffee to restaurants but their main market is to the individual consumer. They ship everywhere daily. Prices are reasonable.
They are worth investigating.

Armed with a West-Bend "Poppery II" corn popper, an aluminum colander, and a couple of pounds of green coffee beans from Sweet Maria's (http://www.sweetmarias.com), you can roast 'em yourself! Add a hand-cranked coffee grinder and a Bodum's French-press from ebaY, and you're in business!!
It doesn't get any better than home-roasted, hand-ground, and fresh-brewed :yesnod:

http://www.coffeebeancorral.com/

Hope that helps

I think you can't go wrong with Intelligensia, but I also second the Stumptown recommendation.

+Infiniti. If you ever get to Portland, you have to stop in his shop. The coffee is out of this world, and so are the pastries!
