Hello! We're Taylor & Leigh Ann, a couple who share a deep love for coffee and a lifestyle that's a little off the beaten path. Our story is one of passion for quality coffee, sustainable practices, and a genuine respect for the origins and people behind each bean.
Our journey with coffee has taken us to remote corners of the world. These travels have not only shaped our approach to coffee roasting but have also ingrained in us a profound appreciation for the diverse cultures and communities that nurture these beans. Every variety we choose to roast has its own history, tradition, and connection to the place it's grown.
In our roasting, we aim for more than just flavor; we strive to capture a sense of place and the hard work of the farmers we partner with. These relationships are important to us. We work directly with growers who are as committed to sustainable farming and fair practices as we are. This ensures not just the quality of our coffee but also supports the well-being of the farming communities as well as protects the unique and fragile coffee growing areas so we will always have it for generations to come.
Our approach to life and business is one of simplicity, feral strategies and enjoyment of the moment. This is reflected in how we roast our coffee – carefully, mindfully, and with a focus on bringing out the best in every bean… with some quirk. We believe in coffee as a simple pleasure that can make any day a little better, whether it's fueling an outdoor adventure or being savored during a quiet morning moment.
We see our coffee as a bridge to different cultures and distant lands. It's our way of sharing the richness of the world's coffee-growing regions with you, in a cup. Join us in this passion and trek through the wide world of coffee. Fuel your adventure & stay wild.
