Our story
I love coffee, but it bothered my stomach. In my search for a cup that could leave me with a polite buzz and a happy belly, I learned that true precision not only felt better but transformed the taste for the better, too. I switched out the machines of the mass market for older tools, touched up for today. Hand grinders, lever espresso machines, and even a stove-top milk steamer.
This is a different kind of coffee. It is not fast, nor is it slow. It comes right on time. The coffee is not lost in a sea of milk or blunted by 100 grams of sugar. It is the base for a handful of drinks that are a simple and inventive delight.
Zeno Coffee is named after our Australian Shepherd, Zeno, who, like the robes of the Italian Capuchin monks who gave the cappuccino its name, is the perfect blend of coffee colors.
This is not my day job. I am a CEO of an economic development agency for a large city. I promise the coffee is as good as my tax incentive strategy.
