More Than Coffee — A Purpose in Every Cup

At La Buena Coffee, we believe every cup should taste incredible and make a difference. From small Colombian farms to your morning ritual, our coffee fuels community, sustainability, and impact.

Our Story

La Buena Coffee was born from a love of exceptional Colombian coffee and a desire to do good in the world. When Michael Brown discovered single estate farms producing flavors unlike anything in the U.S., he knew he had to share it.

Partnering directly with small farmers, we created La Buena to bring you the freshest, most flavorful beans while giving back to communities along the way. Every roast is small batch, every bean hand selected, and every order contributes to La Liga Pequena, a program teaching life lessons to kids through baseball in underserved communities.
