What goes into a cup of coffee?
Two ingredients. Coffee and water. That’s it.
While both are worthy of attention, the water is especially important to us.
Partly because the bean always gets all the love, and we always like the underdog.
But also because just outside our roastery, the Saginaw River flows into the Saginaw Bay before emptying into Lake Huron, one of the largest bodies of freshwater in the world. Having all that water so close to home comes with a sense of responsibility and stewardship; a constant reminder to look after the most valuable natural resource we have, starting with our state’s tributaries, streams, and those exceedingly well-named Great Lakes.
This mindset also extends far beyond our waters, connecting us to the farmers, villages, and countries where our coffee is grown. We are honored to provide this very coffee to people – a wonderful, considerate community of people – whether it’s in our cafes, online, or through our wholesale partners.
So, yes, a cup of coffee may only have two ingredients. But it adds up to infinitely more.
