At Gigawatt, we don't have the overhead expenses of a coffee shop. We roast out of a warehouse space, to keep our costs down, which allows us to focus on the coffee, instead of croissants to keep the lights on. Our mission is to give our customers fresh roasted coffee at an affordable price.  Great coffee shouldn't cost more.  Where other brands seek to provide you with an experience using branded boxes and fancy packaging, we know the most important thing is what is in the bag, not what is on it. While others constantly offer discounts without rhyme or reason, we just make it easy on you.  $11.11 per bag. 

Absolutely not! We are purists and believe coffee should be just that - coffee. We rely on the beans and the roasting process to provide those wonderful subtle taste notes that make every one of our single origins and blends unique.

Subtle tastes notes are personal.  Everyone has a different palate and may perceive different taste notes in each of our coffees.  Just like wine, wherein the grape varietal can determine the acidity, aroma, body and taste of the wine, so can the coffee bean determine the various qualities of how a coffee can taste.  Depending on the varietal, altitude of growth, soil, processing, and roasting of a coffee bean, each bean yields a unique flavor.  It is up to the roaster to bring out that flavor, and either offer it as a single origin or create a spectacular craft blend.

Correct. The only thing we package is roasted coffee beans.  We absolutely do not add anything to our coffee.  In our Kite & Key Blend, we use a combination of beans from Colombia, Brazil, and Guatemala.  Brazilian beans by themselves usually have a slight nuttiness to their taste, which is how we derived the walnut taste note.

A Single Origin is coffee from one place, or one origin.  A blend is a combination of beans from different places.
