Artisan Coffee, Crafted with Care
From ethically sourced beans to your morning ritual, we roast with intention and brew with passion. Experience coffee that honors the craft.
Single-origin beans from Ethiopia, Colombia, and Guatemala, sourced directly from farmers we know by name.
Over 20 years of combined experience, roasting in small batches to unlock each bean's unique character.
Compostable packaging, renewable energy, and zero-waste cafes. Good coffee shouldn't cost the earth.
Velvet Bean began in 2012 when two friends, obsessed with the perfect cup, started roasting beans in a garage. What started as weekend experiments became a mission: to bring extraordinary coffee to everyday moments.
Today, we work directly with farming cooperatives across three continents, paying fair prices that support sustainable livelihoods. Every batch is roasted in our Brooklyn facility, where our master roasters coax out flavors that tell the story of the soil, climate, and care behind each bean.
No middlemen. Just relationships built on respect and fair prices.
Roasted in small batches, delivered at peak flavor.
Compostable packaging and carbon-neutral shipping.
