Last year, we created a viral post about Black owned Alternatives to Starbucks. Unfortunately since then, some of the businesses we listed have gone out of business or are closed temporarily due to the COVID related shutdown.
However, coffee lovers are still in luck since there are several Black owned coffee brands that you can purchase from online and enjoy at home!

Wish I could open a coffee shop!
Hi Leslie, it’s a pleasure to meet other coffee lovers! We are still open for business. Orange Street Storehouse is an online specialty shop offering gourmet coffee and artisan loose leaf tea delivered right to your door. Due to the COVID-19 shipping across the nation have had some challenges but we are still shipping daily.
Please visit our website at http://www.orangestreetstorehouse.com. We are so very grateful for the support that we’ve received and it’s an honor to be able to share great coffee and tea with others.
Can someone tell me which of these brands would work well in a super automatic Delonghi espresso machine? I need a medium espresso roast that isn’t oily and preferably organic.
Love from your Palestinian brothers!
I would love to try my wife and I drink daily.
Take note, some of these are very loosely categorized as “black owned”. a couple businesses I’m seen on this list don’t even have black people on their staff.
If it isn’t circulating the black dollar within Black neighborhoods and Black families for an extended period of time, then it isn’t black owned
Truthfully speaking we need to start side-eyeing a lot of these brothers that have white women as partners, yet are claiming their businesses are black owned just the same
Mr Poole I have the same problem with these black owned businesses. But when checking further, all you see is white people some where involved very high in management are ownership.
Do any of these companies sell coffee that I can use with my Kuerig?
Same question. I haven’t had luck, but I’m committed to continue researching!
Do you have a sample variety pack as I will be a first time purchaser. I prefer dark roast (strong) coffee. My husband prefers vanilla flavored. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would love to order immediately. We have a Kuerig.
Me and my daughter realize the importance to “Shop Black” now more then ever. Thanks for providing another avenue, for us to continue to make it happen.
Are there any Black owned companies that make syrups, creamers, etc. for coffee?
Which of these has the highest caffeine content?
Hey Emmette, I Have not tried every one of these brands but as someone that’s worked in the coffee industry, I can share one a basic way of finding a bean with that extra kick;
The lighter the roast of the bean = the closer to its original form = the higher it’s caffeine.
Any brand (Most of them do) that carries Light to Medium roast beans
should do the trick.
However, the lighter the roast, the more fruity and acidic the flavor off the coffee will be, if you’re not sure what you like I would start with a medium roast and really read into how the company describes the flavors and find what hits your taste targets.
If your looking for a full bodied classic cup of the morning,
Might I suggest sticking to a Dark Roast and packing an extra Tbsp. into your maker in the morning, New Orleans style.
Good Luck!
For others searching for organic options as I was – check out Brickhouse on this list! Both organic and fair trade options.
I am a coffee lover and would love it if any of the coffee owner had a sampler gift box of light to medium roasted coffee.
