George Howell Coffee

Invented the Frappuccino. Now terroir-driven single farm roasting.

George Howell is a living legend — he founded The Coffee Connection in Boston in 1975 (which invented the Frappuccino, later sold to Starbucks) and then started George Howell Coffee in 2004 to push terroir-driven roasting. Every lot is treated like fine wine: single farm, single harvest, light-roasted to preserve origin character. His coffees consistently score 90+ on industry cupping scales.
