Hawthorne Coffee Roasters

Steve’s personal affair with coffee began at an incredibly young age. Many hours of his youth were spent visiting with his grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins over a cup of coffee.

His addiction to coffee developed in high school. After spending enough time in coffee shops, he finally started working in one. This led to a career would take him from making lattes behind the counter, to climbing the hills of El Salvador in search of top quality coffees, to spending weeks at a time jet-setting around the world to find unique coffees and build relationships.
