What the shop says
In the shop's own words, summarized by us.
They operate under a direct trade model, paying farmers based on quality rather than the C market price, and work closely with producers and importers that are Certified B Corps. Beans are sold retail, with coffee subscriptions available. Master Roaster Franklin Ventura helped the company place 5th at the 2017 US National Roasters Championship.
