"A Chicago-roasted specialty coffee brand that distributes beans to several Boston cafes and opened a full coffee bar and dedicated training lab in the Watertown area in spring 2017. The Watertown site features a chef’s-table-style pour-over bar designed to foster interaction between customers and baristas and partners with local bakeries for pastries, while the adjacent training lab offers programs for wholesale customers. The company, founded in 1995 with an emphasis on direct trade and sustainability, was preparing a second Boston-area location at 225 Franklin St. in the Financial District." - Dana Hatic
