Food Production - , ,
True North began in April 2001, when owners John and Maine Hofius quit their jobs as software analysts to open a craft coffee roasting house. Originally intent on opening a cafe, Maine was fortunate enough to come in contact with Kent Bakke, CEO of La Marzocco USA, who generously agreed to meet and discuss the ins and outs of the coffee industry. After hearing Kent talk at length about what he called the "romance and mystery of roasting" Maine's mind and True North's future course were set.WHY WE ROAST COFFEE/WHY WE COME TO WORK"Romance and mystery" aside, our goal at True North has always been to provide craft roasted coffee that is accessible, responsibly sourced, reasonably priced, and above all delicious. We work tirelessly, roasting, blending, sampling our batches, to make sure every bag measures up to our own demanding standards before our coffee ever reaches your cup.We are always keeping an eye out for opportunities to innovate in our field and find ways of improving our service in ways our customers may have never even known they wanted. True North was the first coffee roaster to add roast dates on each of our bags so our customers could be certain of their coffee's freshness; offered our coffee at local grocery stores at a time when no artisanal coffee had yet made it to the shelves; and custom-built grinders for our smaller volume clients to make certain they had the same options as larger establishments; to name just a few of our service accomplishments.
