Sustainable Specialty
Coffee Roaster
The Vanguard of Excellence
180 Years of Innovation
In 1835 Charles and Samuel Bewley dared to break the East India Trading Company’s tea monopoly and chartered the first clipper ship from Canton, China to Dublin, Ireland—a nation that hadn’t yet developed a taste for tea. True risk takers and taste makers, the Bewley family expanded into coffee, opening our world-famous Grafton Street café in 1927.
Adventure is in Our DNA
In North America we were the first to develop a fully sustainable coffee program with ecogrounds™, the first to remove high fructose corn syrup from our recipes, and the only to create nationally distributed Rainforest Alliance certified chocolate sauces.
Our heritage is knowing what the consumer wants before they ask for it. Wherever you need coffee to take your business, we will get you there.
Sustainability
Buying certified green coffee is easy, but being green is more than buying a label and sticking it on our beans. Our long-standing partnerships with Rainforest Alliance and Fair Trade USA are a small piece of our sustainability strategy.
Sustainability is a systemic way of doing business that minimizes our environmental impact, adds value through the entire supply chain, and ensures that future generations of coffee farmers, roasters, and baristas thrive.
We are pioneers in responsible consumption. Our priorities are traceable and include certified sourcing, clean ingredients, and zero waste—from roots to rooftop.

Cultivating The Future
Cultivating coffee’s future
Climate change is real, and so is its effect on the coffee industry. For every pound of green coffee we buy, half a cent goes to funding research that will grow, protect, and enhance supplies of quality coffee while improving the livelihoods of the families who produce it. Our livelihood depend on the success of coffee farms around the world. Learn more here https://worldcoffeeresearch.org/
Burlap Donations
Waste Diversion
Burlap Donations
Green coffee is shipped in burlap sacks. We donate our bags to the Sacramento Zoo for animal bedding and chimpanzee peek-a-boo games.
Skylights
Energy Reduction
Facilities – Energy Conservation
LED lights are more efficient than fluorescent bulbs, but sunlight is better than both. That’s why we installed skylights in our roastery and cut our energy usage in half. We apply this common-sense approach to all of our operations, understanding that what’s good for the planet is also good for our bottom line.
