Sourcing

The True North brand begins with cup quality. We are not motivated by trends, pedigree or certifications but instead seek out coffees with timeless appeal. We typically buy coffee based on "pre ship" samples, which allows us to pick the best tasting coffee ahead of time. We covet a complex combination of sweetness, body, acidity and flavors. 

Because we are an artisan roaster and we roast in small batches, we are able to bring our business to smaller independent farms and buy from limited micro-lots. For more information on the availability of various coffees throughout the year check out our Harvest Seasons page.
