Gourmet fresh roasted coffee and coffee shop supplies

Our coffee is roasted by master roasters, all of whom are members of our family.  Our artisan rosters ensure each bean is carefully roasted to bring out the optimum flavor characteristics.  The pride of ownership is reflected in every cup of our coffee.  We are grateful to be able to share our passion for the best coffee with our community and beyond.

The business has expanded from gourmet coffee shops to include other specialty items carried by coffee shops, grocery stores, and restaurants.  As our business grows and continues to serve our community; family, hard work, and love of coffee continues to push us forward.

Owners and Operators

Our founder, Sam Starnes, grew up on a farm in Virginia. His upbringing instilled a strong work ethic, drive to provide for his family, and a passion for coffee. After retiring from Hercules Aerospace in 1994, Sam quickly found he wasn’t ready to kick back and relax.

He decided to pursue his passion for gourmet coffee. With the help of his wife, Bettye, daughter, Susan, and son Joe, he started Star Mountain Roasters. With a goal to sell gourmet coffee to local coffee shops in the Salt Lake City area, the family got to work. Determined to produce the finest gourmet coffee at a competitive price, we worked with our organic partners to select the highest quality Arabica coffee beans available.
