Great coffee begins with bold choices.
At Metal Velvet, sustainability isn’t a buzzword — it’s a promise. From the farms where our beans are grown to the packaging that delivers them to your cup, every decision is guided by respect for people, communities, and the planet. And yes, we do it all with attitude and artistry — because we’re unapologetically Metal Velvet.
Every bean has a story.
🌍 ORIGINS & ETHICAL SOURCING
We only source 100% Arabica beans from farms and cooperatives in the world’s most respected coffee regions. We craft both single origin coffees and sophisticated artisan blends, blending the best of origin and roast profiles to bring bold, smooth, and unforgettable flavor to every cup.
We look for:
Farms that care: Shade-grown practices, biodiversity protection, and responsible land stewardship.
Fair pay: Supporting farmers and cooperatives with ethical trade and above-market premiums.
Trusted partnerships: Working directly with farmers or through importers who share our values.
These relationships are built on trust, transparency, and shared passion, not just transactions. Every bean we source carries the artistry and individuality of the people behind it.
It's non-negotiable
