Cafe Imports
Cafe Imports is Now 100% Employee Owned
Cafe Imports is proud to announce its transition to employee ownership through an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, or ESOP. A lot has changed since we began in 1993, but the things that matter most to us have stayed remarkably consistent. Great coffee, the people behind it, long-term relationships, education, curiosity, remarkable customer service, and trying to do business in a way that leaves coffee a little better than we found it. Employee ownership gives us a way to protect what we’ve built while making room for the next generation of Cafe Imports to help shape what it becomes.
Primavera Green Coffee
Introducing Primavera Green Coffee!

On offer now: fresh Guatemalan microlots and the last of this year’s Ethiopians. Coming this fall: Colombia and Peru, from standout microlots to versatile regional lots.

Atlas Coffee
Q Arabica Grader Course, October 22-23, 2026
The Q processing Level 1 (Generalist) course is a 2-day event consisting of lectures and comparative cupping exercises. It is designed for coffee professionals who do not actively work in processing but can benefit from greater depth of knowledge in this area – namely roasters, retailers, and baristas. The course provides a scientifically informed body of general knowledge about coffee processing techniques, addressing subjects such as the history of processing, coffee plant anatomy, processing methods, fermentation, drying, and future challenges. A written exam will be administered to measure competencies in the subject matter and a passing score will result in a Q Processing Generalist Certificate.
