02 · Our Story

Rooted in Ethiopia, poured for the world

Kalab Coffee is a specialty coffee company founded in 2024 in Addis Ababa — where coffee itself was born. We roast in small batches, serve with intent, and pass the craft on through hands-on education.

I'm passionate about specialty coffee, barista education, and creating exceptional coffee experiences.

Education: We believe knowledge transforms coffee from a beverage into an experience. Every cup should come with a story.
Passion: We are obsessed with the craft — from the soil in Yirgacheffe to the pour angle in your kitchen.
Innovation: Coffee is chemistry. We measure, test, and refine every variable so your cup is always better than the last.
