Our Coffee

You always know when you’ve tasted a good cup of coffee.
​
The smell. The taste. The jolt of caffeine. You know when something’s good.
So do we.

We just don’t taste our coffee. We make it good.
 
Swillings equips farmers with the skills they need to make good coffee
  • We train community farmers in different processing methods on site. Our experts collaborate with farmers to try out new techniques and we train them in new farming approaches to improve their harvest.
  • We give them a better price for better coffee. We know it’s worth it.
  • We pare done the traditional coffee supply chain. We don’t involve the typical 14 middlemen standing between the farmer and the consumer. We keep it small so that the farmers know our staff and we know them. This results in better communication and more effective training.

Swillings roasts at origin.
  • Meet Frank. He’s our roaster. He’s also Colombian. And he knows exactly what he’s doing.
  • He knows what each tweak of the burner will do. He knows that roasting is as much of a science as it is an art. That roasting makes or breaks a cup of coffee. 
  • We don’t ship our coffee thousands of miles to be roasted elsewhere.  We roast it where it’s born. And (with Frank) we roast it well.

So, yes – our coffee tastes good. But, what if there was more than that? What if you were buying more than just taste?
​
With Swillings  - you are.
  • Our coffee is produced by small, community-owned farms high in the Colombian countryside, not large conglomerates. By investing in small farmers, we ensure that the value of their coffee stays in their community. 
  • We deliberately work with farmers that struggle to access markets that pay them fairly. By paying them the right price for the right product, we empower them with the skills to develop in a global marketplace.
  • This just doesn’t help our farmers – although they are our friends, so we’re real glad about that. It helps the economic development of an entire region. It creates jobs and lasting opportunity. It’s an investment that keeps on paying out.

 
Our coffee is bespoke. It has impact. And, ultimately – it’s just plain good.
Don’t believe us? Try it out.

Order a bag online. In doing so, you’ll do more than just support us.

Buy a cup and buy into the idea that coffee can be better. That it can taste good and do good.  It fact – it already is. The proof is in your cup.

Create with us. Change the rules. It begins with a cup.

Swillings.
