Koffee Kult's founder began the quest for a better cup of coffee. They believed that roasting their own coffee would be the only way to get better coffee in their cup. After a long quest of finding a coffee roaster and sourcing coffee beans, their first batch of roasted coffee dropped into the roaster cooling bin in early 2012.
Back in 2012 roasting coffee was merely a hobby. There was no need for a business name at the time as it was just to roast better coffee for their founder.
However, sharing roasted beans with their friends and family sparked a demand for more coffee. Soon friends of the founder's friends were offering money in order to get a bag of freshly roasted coffee. This lead to Center Stage Coffee being formed as it was required to open a business and banking account.
Though they have grown as a company, their commitment to sourcing the best coffee beans for the best cup of coffee remains the same.
Koffee Kult have partnered with Geezers Of Gear and when you purchase the Geezers Of Gear Coffee blend, proceeds go to Robe BackStage.
