When it comes to coffee, the Northeast is finally putting some heat on the Northwest.
This rustic structure just across the street from Dot’s Market in Lincolnville Beach is evidence of this steamy trend.
Green Tree Coffee and Tea isn’t the first, or the only, coffee roaster in Maine. But it may be the newest. Welcome!
In the front of the shop and you’ll find all the gadgets necessary for brewing your own delicious cup of coffee. Along with a wonderful selection of their gourmet whole beans, roast, ground, flavored coffees, and interesting teas.
Their beans are imported directly from all coffee growing areas of the world, and arrive in these wonderful burlap bags.
The roasting happens in the back of the shop. Small batches are tested in this small roaster to determine the best method for each batch of beans.
Then once the roasting formula is chosen, the batch of beans goes into this large roaster. Mmmm, must smell so good!
Green Tree started in New Orleans but smartly found it’s way to Maine. We’re so glad they did. And it’s great to see the 04849 zip code becoming so popular.
Now only if they would serve cups of coffee (they have no plans so far to do so.) And it would be great if they would post their roasting schedule so we could come by to watch, and enjoy the aromas.
Be sure to ask them about their custom, personalized, roastings.

It’s just across the street from Dot’s Market, and the entrance to the Islesboro Ferry, on Route One. Don’t miss it.
But watch out, you’ll be tempted by all the goodies sprinkled across the huge front counter.
