Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

The coffee companies in America are coffee roasters. Coffee in not grown in America (except Hawaii), but coffee is roasted in America. When coffee is shipped to America, it is still in the green, uncooked form. Coffee is not roasted on the plantations because the quality of the coffee more rapidly declines in the roasted form. It is better that coffee is shipped in the uncooked, green form. Since the quality of coffee rapidly declines after being roasted, you will get the highest quality coffee from a coffee roaster nearest to you. Each roasting company also roasts the coffee in slightly different ways.
The Alex Jones coffee is a branding gimmick though.
