A Coffee That Inspires, Connects, and Empowers 🤩
There is something special that occurs when we sit down to have a conversation over coffee. Coffee is a great companion, and if you're like us, you probably run on coffee. We want to create the perfect coffee to have during these moments, so that's why we chose to focus on providing small-batch, single origin coffee.
Featured Single Origin Coffee 🌎
Single Origin Coffee 📍
We do our best to create a great-tasting cup of coffee. When we decided to focus only on single origin coffees, we knew we didn't want to sacrifice quality. By using single origin coffee beans, we're able to roast a better end product for you and be prouder of the coffee we roast.
Small Batch Roasting 🔥
We roast all of our coffees in small batches, so we have greater control over the roast. Doing so reduces the risk of burning and results in you receiving a fresher coffee to your door, and it's time to brew!

Let customers speak for us
Great coffee ☕!
I've tried all of their different coffees, they are all great but I have to say that my favorite and my bean of choice is the Jefferson Dark Roast.
Give them a try. I don't think that you will be disappointed and I'm sure they will appreciate your business.

Amazing Coffee!
This is by far the best coffee I've ever had. The flavor is top notch and sits well in my belly. Nothing like a good cup of this on a fresh morning!

Great Dark Roast
I have been using this roast with my espresso machine and it makes a delicious and rich americano! I usually go for lighter roasts but this roast is super smooth and i love it!

Another ALX Coffee Option
My wife and I are coffee lovers and when we found out that Common Sense Coffee is based out of our home town (Alexandria,VA), we had to try it out. We opted to grind it medium-coarse and brewed it using our Breville Precision Brewer which controls the water temperature more closely than basic Mr Coffee options. We went through the entire bag within a week of opening it and enjoyed every last drop.
I will definitely add Common Sense Coffee to my local rotation, which includes Commonwealth Joe Coffee Roasters, Swings, Veritas and a few other nearby options. My only critique is that the bags we received did not have a 'roasted on' date, which I expect to see on coffee purchased from coffee roasters. We just opened the dark roast this weekend and look forward to enjoying it at as well.

Another win for Common Sense!
This is my second order and I was eager to try the new Washington Roast. The package arrived promptly and they even allowed me to change my order as my coffee grinder wouldn't arrive in time. The flavor and aroma of this coffee is fantastic and will keep this in my morning routine but there will be a dilemma everyday choosing between this and the Jefferson Roast. I can't wait to see what else Common Sense has to offer in the future.

A taste of the dark side
I brewed a pot with my Chemex. Using roughly about 25-30 grams coffee.
This coffee I put up side by side with Pete's Major Dickersons coffee and found the roast on the Jefferson much better. It is very evenly dark roasted bean with lots of flavor from the bean. The coffee lingers nicely after each taste but no bitter burnt taste at all. I will be purchasing more of this.

Second time drinker first time buyer
I had the pleasure of buying this coffee recently. I will say it is very fresh pleasant taste. I bought a bag of the whole beans.
I made a pot using my Chemex with about 25-30 grams of beans. It brews wonderfully and has a great aroma. First taste is very earthy with great character. Very easy drinking coffee. I put it head to head with a bag of Brazilian sourced coffee from Starbucks. The Washington is a much better drinking coffee.
