Inside this historic Roasterie are plenty of coffee antiques that make up the coffee museum portion of this community coffee and roasting facility. You’ll also find good music, local art, friendly island residents along with the scent of fresh coffee being roasted and prepared.
When you step through the doors of this famous historic Coffee Roasterie you become a part of coffee history. This place instigated much of the development of the Northern European style and artisan roasting phenomenon that the Seattle area is known for.
The Roasterie is also home to Specialty Coffee and Fair Trade pioneer, Jim Stewart’s original coffee company, The Wet Whisker, which eventually became Seattle’s Best Coffee. Vashon Roasterie continues the traditions with the help of Peter Larsen, Jim’s master roaster, and others created nearly 40 years ago. Even today Peter continues the art of hand roasting using the Roasterie’s original vintage roaster.
