Check The Math

A minimum of 20% of the retail price of every bag of coffee remains in the hands of the people at origin where it was grown. Coffee Producers know exactly what you paid and what they earned.

  • Bag retail: $22.00
  • Stays at origin: (20%)$4.40
  • Always 20% or higher
The Numbers

Sweetness Wins.

We source and roast for it, but it starts at origin with the producers. We roast to amplify what's already there, not to impose a style on top of it. The roast level follows the coffee flavors. Every coffee we source and roast has to be genuinely sweet. Not acidic for the sake of complexity, not dark for the sake of body. Sweetness is never optional.

What never changes: the coffee has to be amazing. Not good, not fine. Amazing, the whole cup, top to bottom. If it isn't, we did something wrong, and we'll roast it again until it is.

The Approach

San Diego Born.

The building's been here since the 1930s. Vinyl in the 70s, underground punk in the 80s, quiet for a while, then us. Come sit in it.

We will have a cup ready for you.
