"Sextant founder Kinani Ahmed works directly with Ethiopian, Kenyan, and Colombian growers, making high-end but affordable beans to-go. In this chunk of the city, Sextant is alone in offering terrific coffees and delicious pastries from Firebrand Artisan Breads. His work — and his expansion to Valencia Street — is considered by many to be an example of fourth wave coffee, producing communities owning the means of production." - Paolo Bicchieri
