Our beans are 100% Arabica and sourced from the best growing regions throughout the world. We small batch roast our coffee focusing on developing rich, savory, and full-bodied blends, ranging from light & bright to smoky & sweet. From blends to single origins, our goal is to provide every rescue-loving, coffee-sipping superhero with an opportunity to join our mission and the perfect excuse to slow down and spend 15 more minutes with your best friend each morning! We believe that great products are naturally produced and minimally altered before consumption. For this reason, we source organic or fully traceable green coffee before roasting in small batches to capture the unique qualities of each bean. We currently source green coffee from the following regions: Colombia, Peru, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Mexico, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Sumatra, and Indonesia. 

We believe that a product can only be great if it is great every step of the way. For this reason, we put an emphasis on developing a responsible supply chain, beginning with the farmers who produce our green coffee.

Generally, the shelf life of an unopened bag of coffee is about 12 months. We strive to keep our online inventory as fresh as possible. Our goal is to have no more than 2 weeks between our roaster to your door. If you have extra coffee on hand that you'd like to store, we recommend keeping the coffee in a cool dark place, but DO NOT freeze your coffee. This will have a negative impact on the future flavor and quality. 

No, the descriptions on the bags are just tasting notes, similar to a wine tasting note. We do not add any flavoring to our coffee beans with the exception of our flavored coffees which can be found in our Flavored Blends Collection here.

Your order will generally ship one to two business days after the order was placed. Orders placed over the weekend will ship on Monday. We will send you a shipping confirmation email upon shipment which will include a tracking number for your reference. Please allow for additional time due to carrier delays caused by COVID-19 and increased holiday traffic.

For orders that qualify for free shipping we use our economy rate option, FedEx SmartPost. Please allow 5-9 business days for delivery with FedEx SmartPost. If you need your order to arrive sooner, you will have the option to upgrade to a faster shipping option at checkout.
