Committed to the Highest Quality

As a specialty coffee roastery certified by the Specialty Coffee Association, (SCA), it is our priority to choose the highest quality specialty grade beans from around the world. These beans are grown at high-altitudes by responsible farmers that are dedicated to using sustainable, fair, and direct trade practices. Sourcing coffee from these small farms is the first step in the "farm to cup" philosophy and the foundation of an amazing cup. Our coffee roasts are developed and roasted in Cheyenne, Wyoming at 6,000 feet in elevation.

Our Coffee, Your Purest Brew

Each of our coffee roasts are craft roasted to the appropriate level that specifically reveals the beans' natural flavors. The science of roasting coffee is a life long education, and we are always working hard to pair our skills and passion during each roast. Each batch of coffee is roasted with precision and careful attention to temperature and roast symmetry. We add nothing to our coffee - no filler and never any artificial flavorings. The flavors of our coffee roasts come from the climate and geography of beans' native growing area and our special craft roasting process.

Clean, Chemical-Free Decaf

We are a Registered Swiss Water Process Decaf provider. Our decaffeinated beans have gone through the "Swiss Water Process" before roasting. This is a natural decaffeination process that uses a chemical-free technique to extract caffeine from the bean. Learn more about the Swiss Water Process or watch a short video of how the decaffeinated process works.
