Astoria-based Mighty Oak Roasters selects coffees from around the world and roasts them over kiln-dried hardwood at its Queens roastery and café. The wood comes primarily from storm-damaged trees gathered by local arborists within 50 miles, giving the coffee a distinctive roasting method while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Mighty Oak also supplies cafés and restaurants throughout the New York City area and beyond through its wholesale program.

• Stone Street CoffeeFrom its Brooklyn plant, Stone Street Coffee roasts artisanal coffee in small batches for New York customers, home brewers, and wholesale accounts. The company pairs custom-roaster control with beans sourced through relationships with family farms and farmer co-ops around the world, with freshness guiding the process from origin to shipment. Its coffee specialists also train clients, extending Stone Street’s Brooklyn coffee expertise beyond the bag.BROOKLYN, NY
• Finger Lakes Coffee RoastersSince opening beside the Erie Canal in Bushnell’s Basin in 1996, Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters has turned carefully selected Arabica beans into craft-roasted coffee at its Victor, New York, facility. Owners and roastmasters Bob Cowdery and Larry Werges built the company around small-batch roasting, continual sample roasting and cupping, and freshness—an approach that has made its Canandaigua Blend and more than 100 other coffees familiar across the Finger Lakes and Western New York. The roastery is certified organic by NOFA-NY and offers Fair Trade Organic coffees while composting coffee grounds and reusing roasting chaff locally.VICTOR, NY
• Unique Coffee RoastersStarting in a one-car garage, Unique Coffee Roasters now brings more than 25 years of roasting experience to freshly roasted coffee for New York customers. The Staten Island roaster selects 100% Arabica beans from growing regions around the world and uses closed-cylinder roasting, keeping flames off the beans while drawing out their individual character. Its coffee is available as whole bean, ground, and subscription offerings, including compatible pods.STATEN ISLAND, NY
