Where to buy Intelligentsia coffee in the DC area by the bag

Anyone know where I can buy it by the bag to brew at home? Looks like only a handful of places even offer it by the cup.

    Update: South Block Smoothie in Clarendon sells the house blend for about $17 for a 1lb bag. Thanks @orangemix!

      I think Dolcezza in Dupont carries Intelligentsia, as well as some other great roasters, like Stumptown.

        There's a limited selection at Baked&Wired in Georgetown, iirc, and also a limited selection at South Block smoothies in Clarendon part of Arlington.

        Maybe Chinatown Coffee or Sova, and I could've sworn I saw some at Whole Foods. Hope this will get you started....

          Thanks! I heard South Block had it but I didn't know they sold bags.

          Why not just order it from their website - http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/p...

            Shipping is extremely expensive because they only ship via UPS. The cheapest option, ground rate for a 1lb bag, is $10.84. And the coffee itself is already so pricey that I'm hoping to find it for sale locally.
