Founded in 2021 by two former Wall Street traders who discovered that life's real currency isn't measured in dollars but in perfect morning moments and afternoon conversations that run long.

Every bean we roast, every latte we pour, every pastry we bake asks one question: Does this make someone's day a little better?

They actually care
