We discover, select, and share exceptional coffees.

Standout Coffee was founded on a simple idea. The world produces far fewer extraordinary coffees than most people realize.

Every year we taste thousands of coffees in search of the few that genuinely stand apart. Coffees with clarity, character, rarity and a sense of place that cannot easily be replicated.

Our role is not simply to roast coffee. Our role is to select it.

Over the past decade we have built relationships with some of the most progressive producers in coffee, from Panama and Colombia to Ethiopia, Ecuador, Kenya and beyond. Together, these relationships give us access to coffees that are rarely available outside competitions, private collections and producing countries.

Today Standout Coffee serves customers in more than 90 countries and is trusted by champions, coffee professionals and enthusiasts who share our belief that coffee can be one of the world’s great luxury products.

Every coffee we release is chosen for a reason. Some because they redefine what a variety can taste like. Others because they represent years of work from producers pushing quality further than anyone thought possible.

We exist to help people discover those coffees.
