Cafe Kreyol

Cafe Kreyol We're a direct trade coffee roaster, that focuses on sustainability and transparency in the coffee supply chain.

While our primary focus is on Haiti, we use the same direct trade business model to source from a dozen of other origins. Cafe Kreyol’s flagship coffee, is our Haitian Blue. In 2012, we started working with less than 200 producers. To date we work with over 2,800 people in Haiti alone, and use the same direct trade business model to develop long term relationships in other origins such as Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Ethiopia, Brazil, and more.

Recently, Joey joined a panel discussion hosted by Roast Magazine at Coffee Fest focused on sustainability throughout the coffee supply chain.

Building a more sustainable coffee industry requires collaboration at every stage—from producers and exporters to roasters and consumers.

Thank you to Roast Magazine and Coffee Fest for creating space for these important conversations and for the opportunity to contribute to the discussion.

What happens after green coffee arrives at our roastery?

Roasting is where craftsmanship meets quality. Every batch is carefully developed to bring out the unique characteristics of each coffee while honoring the hard work of the producers who grew it.

From origin to roast, every step plays a role in creating the final cup. Our goal is simple: highlight what makes each coffee special and deliver the best possible experience with every brew.

Quality starts at origin and continues through every step of the process.

Haiti has one of the longest coffee-growing traditions in the world, with coffee cultivation dating back to the 1700s.

Grown at high elevations and often shade-grown by smallholder farmers, Haitian coffee is known for its smooth body, low acidity, and naturally sweet notes.

Every bag of Cafe Kreyol coffee helps support farming communities while preserving a rich coffee-growing heritage.

Exceptional coffee starts long before roasting.

Behind every coffee we offer are producers who dedicate years to refining their craft, improving quality, and pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

Our work at origin goes beyond purchasing coffee. We collaborate with producers on processing methods, quality improvement, and long-term opportunities that help create sustainable value.

The result is better coffee—and stronger partnerships.

At Cafe Kreyol, every batch of coffee we roast is cupped by our team before it reaches customers.

Why?

Because consistency matters.

Our quality control process allows us to verify flavor, identify potential issues, and ensure each coffee reflects the standards we've built our reputation on.

Our team includes Q Graders, Cup of Excellence judges, and experienced coffee professionals who evaluate coffee every day—not just when something goes wrong.

Great coffee isn't an accident. It's the result of intentional quality control from origin to roast.
