It all started because of the great aroma of coffee from the Ivory Coast, one of the largest producers of coffee in the world.

As kids back in the Ivory Coast, we could only enjoy the smell of coffee. Our parents used a particular way of roasting their beans, just with a pot on a furnace. Growing up, and being in the USA, I have tried several kinds, brands, and flavors of coffee but I could not relate to what I used to smell and taste back home. I asked my father once why he did not make some flavored coffee. His answer changed my perspective.

He said: "We are blessed with nature. We have some of the best beans. If they are grown in a good landscape, in a good climate, selected with care, and roasted at the perfect temperate, your flavor is natural. Nothing is to be added"

Therefore, a few years ago in the mountain region of the Ivory Coast, we met some farmers to produce together the 1st Espresso 100% Made in Côte d'Ivoire, so that everyone can enjoy it! Indeed, it is in this region that we select the best coffee beans at an altitude of more than 600 m, with optimal sunshine, and in a humid tropical climate, which gives the coffee a natural finesse that only artisanal roasting control allows us to preserve.
