Oh, wow. There are so many brands out there, from small boutique roasting shops to medium-sized commercial roasters who produce vastly superior product to Starbucks. Nearly any roaster who roasts to order will be better than Starbucks. I use a local one called Specialty Java because they're decent, less expensive, and the shipping is a low courier fee, or even free for will-call. I can recommend them if you are not used to the 3rd-wave ultra-light roasts. Most of their stuff is medium roast, and nothing is burnt like the majority of Starbucks beans.
