Seattle's relationship with coffee goes deeper than any city in America. Long before the third-wave movement had a name, Seattle roasters were obsessing over sourcing, roast profiles, and extraction. That legacy is everywhere, and the specialty scene today is the best it's ever been.
Capitol Hill is the epicenter.
