About
For those looking to experience some of Maui's most celebrated coffee, Origin Coffee Roasters in Kihei is a name that truly stands out. Established in 2019 by Heather Brisson-Lutz, who brought her extensive coffee expertise from Portland, Oregon, to the island, Origin was founded with a clear vision: to meticulously highlight the origin and source of their exceptional beans. As the island’s most award-winning roaster, Heather’s hands-on involvement in every step, from collaborating with local farmers to meticulously developing roast profiles, ensures a product that speaks to their passion and expertise. What truly sets Origin Coffee Roasters apart is their profound commitment to 'farm direct partnerships.' They notably roasted the first ever Maui-grown coffee to be featured on Coffee Review's prestigious Top 30 list, a significant nod to their dedication to local Hawaiian agriculture and exceptional quality. This 'doing better' philosophy, centered on stable, collaborative relationships with farmers, defines their operation. It’s about fostering transparency, mutual success, and genuine connections that go beyond mere labels, truly from farm to cup. While they don't operate a public café, their exceptional coffees, including popular Ready-to-Drink Nitro Cold Brew cans, are available for online order pick-up at the Maui Brewing Company in Kihei. You can also find Origin's offerings at various respected retail locations across Maui, making it convenient to experience their dedication to showcasing the best of local and thoughtfully sourced coffee.
