About Us

The word bona fide is defined as in good faith, authentic, or genuine. Our aim is for both our family and coffee to be authentic and for our daily lives to be carried out in good faith.

Our coffee roasting journey began over 15 years ago with a homemade roaster on the back porch. Now with many years of experience, we have decided to take the next step and share our BonaFide love of coffee with others. Our family run business will provide locally roasted, high quality, small batch coffee.

Whether your needs are just that first sip in the morning or a cup shared with a friend in the afternoon, we strive for an exceptional cup of coffee.

Our BonaFide coffee is available in a variety of origins. Inventory will fluctuate due to the fact that we choose coffee from small, fair trade farms. When possible you will see a variety of organic choices. Organic small batch coffee can provide many health benefits. It is rich in antioxidants and recent studies have shown heart and brain benefits.

All of our coffee will be whole bean. Coffee starts to loose flavor within days of grinding. Antioxidants also start to deteriorate within an hour after grinding, so to ensure optimum flavor grind just prior to your brew. The fresher the grind, the better the cup. Not all coffee is equal. All of our roasts will range from light to medium. Lighter roasts highlight the unique flavors of the beans which have a variety of contributing factors. These factors include processing method, altitude the cherries are grown, and country of origin. As coffee is taken into darker roasts, it tends to lose those unique flavors. Every bag of coffee is roasted in a small batch to ensure a bright cup. You’re only one cup away from a great day!
