Why We Exist
Full story
For us, coffee has always been more than a drink—it’s the companion to the unrepeatable. From South African bushveld sunrises to crisp pre-dawn Alabama walks, from Bali’s rustic fires to Milan’s meticulous tastings, coffee has been there when effort met alignment and a single moment became unforgettable.
Orange Spoon Coffee Works turns that belief into practice: carefully sourced, intentionally roasted, and never complacent. We don’t chase replicas of yesterday’s cup; we chase what’s true today—flavor with character, comfort with meaning, and an experience that invites you to pause, not perform.
Cycling taught me to push past limits; coffee taught us to savor what can’t be staged. Orange Spoon is where those lessons meet: ritual without rigidity, adventure without noise, and quality without compromise.
Behind the Roast
" I’m Walter, founder of Altitude & Earth and head roaster at Orange Spoon Coffee Works. My journey started with a love for cycling and the simple ritual of coffee before every ride. What began as fuel for the climb turned into a passion for crafting coffee that’s intentional, consistent, and full of character.
Each bag we roast carries that same spirit of resilience, community, and adventure. ”
Why Coffee?
Coffee is more than a drink. It’s a experience, a pause, and a source of connection. With Orange Spoon, we bring that philosophy to life — sourcing carefully, roasting locally, and sharing moments that matter.
