We Don't
Just Make Coffee
We grow it, study it, taste it, and teach it,
because understanding coffee is the only way to share it responsibly.
Every Step Shapes
What's in Your Cup
From the farm to the final roast, we stay involved at every stage,
because the decisions made along the way are what make the difference in your cup.

1
Farm
UCC established Japan’s first
directly operated Blue Mountain estate in Jamaica.
By farming at origin, we stay involved from cultivation to harvest.
2
Seedling
Great coffee starts with the tree.
Instead of purchasing seedlings, UCC grows its own from carefully selected coffee cherries.
3
Processing
After harvest, coffee cherries are carefully processed into green beans. In our Kona Blend, this careful processing preserves the coffee's natural clarity and flavor.
4
Roasting
Roasting brings out the unique character of each origin.
Our roasters carefully adjust time and temperature to highlight the natural flavors of the beans.

Cup
Every shipment is inspected twice before it reaches you, first at origin, then by professional coffee graders in Japan, where our quality standards are set.

Built on People
Who Know Coffee
Our farmers, roasters, tasters, and trainers have spent their careers learning coffee inside and out. That depth of expertise is what makes it into every cup.
