Company Description
About Us
Founded by two brothers who got tired of instant coffee, Kuju Coffee is a single-serve pour over coffee brand on a mission to inspire moments of rest & rejuvenation. Pioneers of the new single-serve pour over category in North America, Kuju Coffee began as a Kickstarter in 2015 and today can be found nationwide in retailers like REI, Bass Pro Shops, Nugget Market, Central Market, Rainbow Grocery, and Academy Sports. Even better? Every Kuju Pocket PourOver is crafted with our Source-to-Soul™ impact philosophy in mind, which is why we source from a family farm in Thailand that employs former sex-trafficked victims; pack all product in 100% wind-powered facilities; and donate 1% of all sales to the National Park Foundation, so each pour over brewed is more than just a cup of coffee.
