Black Dot Coffee:
For many years this market was closed to American roasters due to lack of Quality
Assurance
with bean grading and product consistency for packaging and roasting technical.
Black Dot Coffee overcame great challenges to be the first in this market, many
hours with government
officials both US and Russian as well as customs and other regulatory agency.
Built international sales and management teams in Moscow and Saint Petersburg.
Black Dot Coffee had won more international awards then any other American
roasted company.
Created Coffee line around the musical Icon Jimi Hendrix.
This was one of the first celebrity driven coffee line in America.
This product was released around the same time a few other failed Hendrix products hit the market,
so I stopped production.
I currently consult for the re-release of Hendrix Coffee Spring of 2010.

The kitchen is where everything came to life. “The heart of
the organization’.
If you didn't’t start out with the best ingredients, the sauce
would go bad. And I don’t like bad sauce. So it always
started with the “best of the best.”
Everything took time. Nothing happened right away, nothing
happened right now.
This is not microwave. Same thing goes with my coffee.
This ain’t no Folders, this ain’t no crystals you throw in a
cup of hot water and stir. This is a coffee that takes time
slow roasted over time. The highest quality, the best of the
best. That’s how it’s supposed
to be done. I don’t know where you’re from, but where I
grew up, that’s how we did it. So if you think the way I do
and you want only the best.
