Before Anything Else • Light Roast
Before Anything Else • Light Roast
Blend · Light Roast
Bright, clear, and unhurried
Before Anything Else is light, clear, and expressive. Crafted for the first quiet moment of the day, it offers brightness without sharpness and clarity without feeling thin. A fresh, open cup that feels considered, calm, and full of possibility.
Sourced from Ethiopian smallholder farms in Guji's high-altitude growing areas where traditional intercropping methods are practiced, Mexican cooperatives in Chiapas emphasizing environmental stewardship, and Brazilian estates in Cerrado with their systematic cultivation approaches. This specialty-grade coffee shines across multiple brew methods, from pour-over to cold brew.

Why ProperBrew
Because not everything needs to be optimized
We believe coffee can be made with care, without being pushed for maximum output. Anti-extraction isn’t a slogan for us, it’s a choice about how we participate.
Because human dignity matters
From the people who grow and roast the coffee to the people who drink it, we try to choose systems that respect limits, labour, and real lives.
Because care should come before promotion
We focus on balance, consistency, and clarity, not hype, trends, or constant newness. Coffee that earns trust quietly, over time.
