Dark, bold, and unflinching—just like the song that inspired it.
Childish Gambino’s “This is America” ripped through the culture with raw truth—holding a mirror to gun violence, racism, and the chaos woven into American life. It spoke to history and the headlines, forcing us to confront what’s too often ignored.

Our This is America dark roast from Honduras carries that same weight—deep notes of plum, almond, and s’mores, roasted to provoke and energize.
This isn’t just coffee. It’s commentary.

"People Get Ready” isn’t just a song—it’s a spiritual call to rise.

Written by Curtis Mayfield at the height of the Civil Rights Movement, this timeless anthem became a soundtrack for hope, faith, and collective action.
It reminded us that liberation is coming—and we all have a place on that train.
Our People Get Ready roast is a tribute to that spirit: a smooth, soulful medium roast from El Salvador with notes of red apple, hazelnut, and milk chocolate.
Brew it slow. Sip it with intention. The movement continues.
