In the early 2000s, a freelance musician and coffee lunatic opened a roaster for people who wanted the taste of fresh coffee.
James Freeman vowed to sell coffee less than 48 hours out of his six-pound batch roaster - using the finest, most delicious and responsibly-sourced beans - so guests may enjoy coffee at peak flavor.
He named his business Blue Bottle Coffee in honor of Franz George Kolshitsky, founder of The Blue Bottle in Vienna, Central Europe's first coffee house.
Blue Bottle Coffee is now a network of cafes, an espresso cart, an occasional pop-up and a small fleet of roasters, still united by the purpose of getting great coffee to everyone who wants it.
