The Story Of Compadres Coffee Roasters

Coffee has helped to create community for generations...

Growing up, I remember listening to the stories of the farmers as they gathered at the local cafe every morning for their cup of joe. In college, it was the aroma of coffee and the caffeine it provided that inspired our collective study groups and fueled our friendships. Later, the specialty coffee scene became the place to hang out, and of course, to get to know that special someone.

For us at Compadres, coffee is still all about creating community: with our customers, our vendors and our farmers. Together, we are all sharing in the story of every cup of coffee.

Freshly Roasted Artisan Coffee

Make no mistake—roasting is both science and art and we strive to be excellent at each. Each bag of Compadres coffee is thoughtfully designed and comes roast dated and stamped with the country of origin and the farm from which it comes.

Ethically Sourced Coffees with A Story

American culture is often divorced from our food sources. The recent momentum to re-establish connection with local producers and farmers is a welcome one. In that same pursuit, we strive to be connected with every farm from which we source coffee. In every case, we insist that each bag of green bean we import meets our standards for sustainability—for the coffee and the grower.

How Can We Help?

He may be gone, but my dad, Harold Herbel would roll over in his grave if we didn't put the customer first. And besides, it is in our DNA to treat everyone with the respect they deserve.
