Back to top

When you open a specialty coffee roastery in Friedrichshain under the name Tres Cabezas in 2002, you need a lot of idealism, conviction and passion. Because at the time, specialty coffee might have been an issue in the US, Australia or the UK; it was certainly not in Berlin and Germany. But we tried anyway and the background was this: Coffee, as it was drunk in restaurants, bars, cafés or at home at the time, simply did not convince us. Not qualitatively, but neither in terms of trade, manufacture and processing. We wanted to change that.

What we wanted to change

First and foremost, it was about finding your way back to this fascinating starting product - the coffee cherry - which, under very special conditions, ripens on a bush into a fruit with which so many great things are possible. back to the roots - we first had to learn. Gathering knowledge about cultivation, harvest, processing, about varieties and soil conditions, and about the possibilities of buying special coffees and bringing them to us in Berlin.

We have spared no limits

We have traveled, spoken to people, crawled around in the dirt, planted on our own coffee farm, harvested and tried to sell. We have always got a little better and have understood a little better what distinguishes good from bad coffee. We have made friends: farmers who share our idea of good coffee. We are supplied from all over the world - Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, Brazil, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Burundi, Indonesia and China. Because coffee is also a seasonal product and for the best quality it is necessary to stick to the harvest cycles.

We have grown

We have shared our knowledge and have grown: from great colleagues from Australia, the USA and other countries. We have taken influences and expertise and let them flow into the selection of green coffees, but above all into the roasts and the development of outstanding filter coffees and espresso roasts that you can try with us today. And we changed the name. We are now 19 grams, thanks to our colleagues from Australia, where 19 grams is the amount of coffee you need for a double espresso.

The Rapture

You can buy from us without a doubt. We know our shit, as our Australian colleagues say. We have coffee partners all over the world who provide us with the product that we - and you - love so much. All around us, the enthusiasm for specialty coffee is increasing, as is the search volume on Google and, above all, the awareness that coffee can be so much more than a bag from the supermarket for little money. We pay attention to the producers, we travel to the farmers, speak, understand and discuss, we strive for real sustainability in production and we make incredibly good coffee. We are not ideological. We look forward to questions, suggestions and criticism! Because it is important to us to keep getting a little better every day.
