History

Keystone Coffee operates from a modern roasting and packaging facility located in San Jose, CA.  In 2001, the plant was fabricated with state-of-the-art roasting and packaging equipment.  The manufacturing plant includes a coffee tasting room and laboratory equipped with instrumentation to analyze green, roasted and ground coffee.  The plant has been outfitted with equipment that utilizes the newest technological advances in the roasting and packaging processes.

Keystone Coffee has a long and historical background.  Originating in 1867 as Eagle Coffee and Spice the business subsequently joined with Keystone Wholesale Grocery.  This allowed them to expand sales into most of Northern and Central California.  The company has always had a record of selling to two distinct groups: wholesale customers and retail customers.  During the 1940’s the decision was made to separate the coffee business from the other operations.  At this time, a large warehouse and coffee roasting facility were built in downtown San Jose.  Their reputation continued to grow as a roasting facility known for producing fresh, gourmet coffee.

Today, the third generation of the Wright family plays an active role in the business.  Their desire was to build upon the company’s distinguished history.  A talented team of professionals was assembled to position Keystone Coffee for national growth as a custom gourmet roaster.

Keystone Coffee is known as a truly premier roaster of the finest gourmet coffee available anywhere on the West Coast.  Keystone Coffee specializes in customized, small batch roasting.  The company focuses on the individual customer needs. These customers represent many different market segments including: upscale restaurants, large institutions, office coffee service and gourmet coffee retailers.  Keystone Coffee prides itself on its ability to respond rapidly to the special requests of its customers.
