Manhattan Coffee

With Manhattan we are striving for sweetness and provenance. We love to work with producers and traders that are as exited about their product and the future of coffee and it’s people as we are. We focus on bringing the flavour of origin into your cup of coffee. Every Manhattan coffee is sourced ethically and sustainably.

DAK Coffee

Amsterdam - We select our coffees based on their unique tasting profiles and of course that are 100% fully traceable. We partner with importers that share our values and we roast each one of our coffees carefully to bring the best flavours they have to offer.

Friedhats

Amsterdam - We only want to sell coffee that tastes great, consistently and with transparency and honesty. We buy coffees directly from the producers and from trusted importers Europe-wide. We want our packaging to be reused, refilled and at the very least recycled.
