We don't just roast coffee.

We trace it, taste it, and take responsibility for it.

01
Origin

Every bean is traceable to its farm. Ethical sourcing, fair prices for farmers, freshness only. If we can't tell you where it came from, we don't carry it.

02
Craft

Our founder is a Certified Q Grader and head judge of the US Roasters Championship. That expertise goes into every roast we release.

03
Community

Rooted in Merced. Our baristas run together. We host events that bring the city together. The people behind the cup matter as much as the cup.

More than a roaster.

We source directly. We roast to order. We build real relationships with the businesses we supply. If you're looking for a coffee partner who actually knows what's in the bag — you're in the right place.

Good coffee. Good timing.

New roasts, events, and the occasional thing worth reading.
