Community and Events

We love hosting events and collaborating with our business partners to interact with their team and customers in unique and meaningful ways. Recent events we have co-organized include Café Collectif, an event bringing together several specialty roasters from Quebec, an educational tasting on the different origins and projects we support, a training session on espresso and its parameters for a team whole. We always appreciate these opportunities to connect and contribute to a community that shares the same ideas and values as us.

  • Transparency

    Our commitment to purchasing price transparency and bean traceability reflects our desire to support producers, guarantee the quality of our coffees and promote the sustainability of the coffee industry. This is why, with each coffee, you can trace the origin of the beans back to the farm, as well as the journey to your cup, ensuring you get a product paid at the right price.

  • Quality

    All our grains are selected with great care and follow a rigorous selection process. Each season, we receive sample batches of exceptions from our import partners. These coffees are tasted blind by the roasting team and chosen for their taste qualities, their origin, the people and the projects associated with them. So it’s easy to say that these coffees are the team’s favorites!

  • Community

    Beyond the cup, its taste, and the baristas, there is a community at the origin, to whom we owe our coffee. These “micro” producers, owners of only a few hectares of land, are responsible for more than 85% of the coffees produced around the world. Our cafés, through innovative projects, encourage and further support the financial independence of our partners on the farm.
