I. What is Blue Bottle Coffee？
Blue Bottle Coffee is famous for offering freshly roasted coffee beans within 48 hours, but its popularity extends beyond just great-tasting coffee. The brand successfully pioneered and led the “third-wave coffee” movement.
Through a commitment to artisanal craftsmanship in every cup, minimalist design, and a focus on community, Blue Bottle has transformed coffee into a unique cultural symbol, earning the nickname “the Apple of the coffee world.” The brand also frequently collaborates with others like Human Made, Marimekko, Kinto, and MiiR to release exclusive merchandise.
