Say hi to Moody and Bean!

Why I made BeanMood

I made BeanMood because I love coffee, and I love trying beans from around my own city. When I’m visiting somewhere new, I bring home an ungodly amount of beans to try. I’m obviously not the only one like this… right? lol

I wanted a fun way to help people like me find the roasters in their own city, or in a city they’re visiting. What better way to discover a city than starting the day with a great coffee that’s specific to it?

I hope you get some great use out of it. Visit a few of these roasters’ cafes, and if you can’t make it to their cafe or their city, order some beans from them to try.

I’m a one-person show, working as fast as I can to add more cities and roasters. If you know a place I should add, send it over and I’ll get it on the map.

Thanks for visiting!- Rickey, founder
