About

Bold Mountain Coffee Roasters is a small-batch artisan roastery in Dandridge, Tennessee, in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains. Founder Craig Murphy roasts to order on commercial-grade equipment with computer-automated temperature control, a craft that started more than 15 years ago with a popcorn popper. Single origins and blends named for East Tennessee landmarks, packaged the same day they're roasted.

Our Story

Bold Mountain Coffee stands as a testament to founder Craig Murphy's dedication and passion for the art of coffee roasting. What began as a hobby using a simple popcorn popper has, over more than 15 years, transformed into a sophisticated and personalized coffee roasting operation. The marriage of advanced commercial-grade roasting equipment and years of experience enables Craig to bring out the best flavors from the highest quality coffee beans, with computer-automated temperature control ensuring batch to batch quality and consistency. Bold Mountain Coffee started as a backyard experiment. Craig's passion for coffee roasting began with a basic air popcorn popper and evolved over 15 years into a mastery of the craft. Driven by a desire to share the experience and rich flavors of premium, expertly roasted coffee, Bold Mountain Coffee was created. Through a combination of experience, understanding the colors, smells and sounds produced at different stages of a roast, and technology, Craig creates consistent, repeatable and personalized roasts. His dedication to perfecting every batch ensures exceptional quality and flavor. Freshness is the whole point: we roast in small batches and deliver directly to you, packaging your coffee the same day it is roasted in an airtight, sealed bag with a one-way valve that lets nitrogen escape while keeping oxygen out. Wake up to the taste of the Smokies.
