The standard for coffee is too low
We're Here to Raise the Bar
That belief has driven us for almost two decades–compelling us to traverse the globe, forge strong relationships with dedicated growers, create a custom-built production roaster, and push the boundaries of what’s possible in coffee.
OUR COFFEE APPROACH
Learn about our unique approach
The return of
PROJECT III
One producer. Three roasters. Three perspectives on extraordinary coffee.
Project III returns with Ratibor Hartmann, a producer whose relentless curiosity and decades of experimentation have helped redefine what's possible in Panama Geisha.
Through the distinct perspectives of MAME, Proud Mary, and Phil & Sebastian, three remarkable coffees come together in one box. A rare exploration of craft, character, and the many ways exceptional coffee can be expressed.
The pre-sale is now closed. Boxes ship by December 11.
Coffee with
Your Logo
Fresh-roasted coffee with your logo on every bag. A thoughtful, local gift that keeps your brand in their morning routine all season long. From $240 for 10 bags.
Halloween
Phil vs Seb
This Halloween: Phil vs Seb.
Years of coffee obsession have brought them to this moment. Two founders. One final showdown. And, for reasons we’re still working out, an exceptional Catuai from Costa Rica.
Produced by Carlos Castro Solano at Rio Jorco in Tarrazú, this coffee is sweet, round and unapologetically Halloween: Peanut Butter Cup, Marshmallow and Snickers.

Wherever
You Roam
A recent arrival, our Lilac Dream instant is a floral, elegant counterpoint to our Smooth Operator instant, made with coffee from Gedeb in southern Ethiopia.
This release was produced with Hasty Coffee, whose relentless focus on quality mirrors our own. This batch is revision five of their process, and the best yet.
If you've tried our Smooth Operator instant, you'll know the quality to expect here. If you haven't, you'll want to.
