The Magical Fruit
The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

They're not close to me, really, but same country.
But when I order, I get coffee that was roasted within the last couple days. Good variety of roasts, and I've never disliked anything I've tried, all high quality.
edit Oh, this post is 2 years old. Well it's still a good question! Hopefully this community picks up with all the new users.
Maybe with all of the sketchy reddit exploitation more people will come over here!
Seconding happy mug although I buy their greens and then just roast it at home in an sr800 It's hard to beat the value of 4-7 dollars a pound even considering the 10%-20% weight loss after roasting
I'm a former employee. My experience there wasn't great. Owner treated employees poorly.
OTOH you aren't going to beat their prices anywhere else, but the main reasoning for that is they try to keep costs as low as they can and push the employees to get everything out same day to keep orders coming in. It was pretty exhausting and there was a high employee turnover.
If you're on a budget they're fine. If not, go elsewhere.
Well that's a bummer to hear, maybe it's time to check out the current options again.
