Speckled Ax was founded in 2007 in Portland, Maine, originally under the name Matt's Wood Roasted Organic Coffee. The roastery's defining feature is its fuel: all coffee is roasted on a vintage 20 kilogram Petroncini from the 1970s fired with locally sourced, kiln dried Maine hardwoods including red oak, maple, and ash. It is one of a handful of wood fired coffee roasters in the United States. The approach produces a roast character distinct from conventional gas fired methods, adding a subtle depth that has earned Speckled Ax a Good Food Award. They offer both certified organic blends and high quality conventional single origins, all ethically sourced.
