About My Company:
The company started in tobbacco and evolved into a coffeehouses. My father was trying to think of ways to keep his pipe smokers hanging out longer, so he started giving away free cups of specialty coffee. Then they wanted to buy the coffee, and a few years later (early 80s) he bought a small 10lb probat roaster. Sold primarily pounds and drip until the 90s, until espresso started to take off. Now we have nine coffee shops, and a wholesale business.
