Tapping the mystical roots of coffee to inspire the esoteric.
15th Century
Coffee plants originate from East Africa, but brewed coffee consumption in the region doesn't appear until the 16th century when it was likely popularized by Arab traders. The word "coffee" comes from Arabic "qahwah" (قهوة) and refers to wine, which offers an interesting glimpse into a period when the legality of coffee consumption was hotly debated in Islamic dietary law. Regardless, Sufi mystics embraced coffee and it was strongly associated with Sufi movements and their spiritual practices. The Islamic world today overwhelmingly accepts coffee under its dietary law and it has become a steadfast staple.
17th Century
Coffee was brought to Italy by Venetian traders with Ottoman Turkey, coincidentally the Italian Renaissance starts around the same time. The Dutch import coffee and spread it to Indonesia and other colonial possessions. It coincides with the Northern Renaissance which produced this lovely image.20th Century

First of all, all of our coffee is roasted to order and we don't cater to the bourgeoisie with fancy packaging or status signaling. We don't plan to operate any physical stores or large scale roasteries.
This means that our coffee is more affordable and customizable. Since we don't roast large batches in advance, the roasting specifications can be customized towards your particular brewing method, you have the power to pick.
The platform is an exploration into constraining coffee to a structured syntax and applying AI for auto-completions. Use the platform to explore coffee from the comforts of home or start your own small business. This project is not VC funded and is not a B2B AI productivity app that advances a tech dystopia, I believe we can do better with AI. It is developed and maintained by a team of 1.
Please support this mission by sharing, buying coffee, or trying a subscription. I'd greatly appreciate it and I hope you enjoy the coffee ❤️.
