The Big Picture

Genuinely Independent

Canyon Coffee is a couple's ten-year project: organic single-origin coffee roasted in LA, sold through subscriptions, two cafés, and a Design Within Reach partnership — with no outside investors in any record. The New York Times named its instant coffee the best available. The gaps are small-company ones: no published certifier for the organic claim and no wage data, not ownership questions.
