In 1996, Finger Lakes Coffee Roasters, Inc. first opened its doors on the banks of the Erie Canal in Historic Bushnell’s Basin, New York.

Bob Cowdery, the Roastmaster, has roasted coffee for many years in various locations. With this experience and the ability to roast in small batches, he and his partner, Larry Werges, are able to transform green coffee beans imported from around the world into rich aromatic coffees.
