Why Choose This Coffee?
Supports A Real Need
Custom Blended
With two "art and science" coffee labs we test and create each blend. Our coffee masters have nearly 100 years of combined experience. Each final offering is the result of hundreds of hours of testing until it is perfect and ready for your cup.
Hand-Picked at Elevation
We hand-pick this beautifully curated coffee from our own Geek Grind property in the mountains as well as from the surrounding farms of our friends and family. We only pick what is ripe. We never use machinery for harvesting and we dry our coffee naturallyin the warm sun.
Always Fresh
We have been roasting coffee for generations. We roast each small batch of Geek Grind coffee individually to ensure the peak of freshness and flavor. We start with beans fresh from the field.

We have been in the coffee cultivation and managment world for over 50 years. We have our own farms. We are a mixed US and Colombian family who loves coffee and loves the environment.

Our Story - Please Watch our Video ------> Turn On Sound----->
Thousands of feet up the mountain slopes breaking through the rising mist off the Cauca River and under the shade of the Jurassic-like plantain trees, you will discover our micro-lot farms in the Valle del Cauca region of Colombia. This Eden is where we grow our rich red fruit for the Geek Grind Coffee Company. A refuge from the modern world, the surrounding mountains of Valle del Cauca have, for generations, provided the ideal micro-climate to grow the world's most exceptionally pure coffee. The Geek Grind brand of 100% hand-harvested coffee, the true treasure of these mountains, is inspired and enriched by the beauty of this fertile land and the exacting craftsmanship of its people. Please watch the video and join us as we accend into the clouds.
The rest of the story:
We have created the Geek Grind Coffee Company utilizing our family's decades of passion, skill and expertise in the cultivation and roasting of mountain-grown Colombian coffee. We are a mixed American and Colombian family living between the two countries. Through Geek Grind Coffee you have immediate access to our Colombian farms and unique quality that only a direct sourced coffee relationship can bring to you.
We do not "source" our coffee as most companies do - rather we actually grow it. We harvest by hand from our own farms and the nearby farms of our friends and neighbors. We then immediately dry the coffee beans in the sun right at the mountain farms. Just hours after drying we roast the coffee in small batches then finally package the roasted in special protective packaging that assures freshness before shipping directly to your door.
We call this "Certified Origin Production" and we are one of the only coffee companies in the world to do this. We know that you will taste the difference in quality and freshness. Also you will be making a tremendous change at origin by directly supporting not just the origin farmers but also our staff at the source who roasts, packages and ships the world's finest Colombian coffee to you.
