ABOUT BEYOND COFFEE
What is Beyond Coffee?
Beyond Coffee is a proprietary blend of roasted barley, rye, and chicory that can be brewed just like coffee. It has a rich, satisfying, slightly nutty flavor that warms you body and soul. The ingredients are carefully sourced, then hand-blended and roasted in small batches right here in Jefferson, Maine.
How Beyond Coffee Got Started
Beyond Coffee was born out of my love for Maine, farming, and food.
I have been closely involved in the organic movement and producing specialty food products in Maine for the past 35 years.
Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association, MOFGA, has been holding The Common Ground Fair since 1977. The Common Ground Fair is an agriculture fair held in September which promotes organic, sustainable agriculture and living.
The food at the fair is legendary for being delicious. All of the food must be made from organically farmed and harvested Maine ingredients, the ultimate in local food. This means coffee could not be offered. My solution was Beyond Coffee.
After months of experimentation I arrived at a robust, balanced blend of organic barley, rye and chicory. All of these ingredients can be grown in Maine. Beyond Coffee was a hit at the fair and I began selling it to local markets. Beyond Coffee has a rich, full flavor and is brewable just like regular coffee.
