About Us

Hi there!

We’re The Best Damn Coffee Roasters, three friends who met in college and bonded over coffee. Two of us are high energy New Yorkers, and the other is a laid back Texan. We spent countless hours in coffee shops or sharing cups of coffee across New York City chatting and working. After our college days, that ritual continued, and over time it brewed into conversations about starting something of our own, rooted in our shared love of coffee. 

 In New York, coffee is fuel, and coffee shops are as essential as gas stations. New Yorkers easily understand the utility of coffee and the demand. The Texan of our group, with her Ethiopian heritage, brought a different perspective. Ethiopia is known as the birthplace of coffee, and her cultural roots exposed her to the wide variety of flavor profiles and types coffee can offer. Together, this exchange shaped how we understand, appreciate, and approach coffee today.

We took it upon ourselves to study and learn the craft, and roasting quickly became our specialty. Today, we love sharing freshly roasted coffee with you, collaborating with other small businesses nationwide, and creating blends and roasts we’re proud of. Thanks for being part of our story ☕
