About us

Yet, until the mid-20th century, many folks in this country were drinking coffee brewed in siphon pots. The Chemex had been invented several decades earlier. And centuries before that, the Dutch East India Trading Co. introduced colonists to coffees from Sumatra, Java, and Yemen--all grown from heirloom varietals that had been cultivated organically.

Our nation's relationship with coffee has thankfully turned a corner in the past few decades. Increasingly, consumers recognize that coffee is a revelation when beans are sourced from farmers committed to excellence, skillfully roasted to ensure that their finest qualities sing out, and brewed to achieve a superior cup rather than merely a convenient one.
