Our Story

In 2019, our founder took a sabbatical year to step away from the rush of city life. Traveling through the highlands of Central America, she discovered something extraordinary: coffee grown with patience, harvested with care, and roasted with intention. Each cup told a story of the hands that grew it, the soil that nurtured it, and the community that cherished it.

"Coffee became more than a morning ritual—it became a bridge to understanding the beauty of slowing down, of savoring moments, and of connecting with the stories behind what we consume."

— Sarah Chen, Founder

Coffee farmers in Central America

Grown with Purpose

We partner directly with small-scale farmers and cooperatives who share our commitment to sustainable practices. Our beans are shade-grown, hand-picked at peak ripeness, and processed using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations.

Every batch is roasted in small quantities to preserve the unique characteristics of each origin. We believe in seasonal roasting—celebrating the natural rhythms of harvest and honoring the terroir that makes each coffee special.
