Java – Natural: Diofanor Ruiz

Anthology Coffee was founded in 2011 by Josh Longsdorf as Detroit's first specialty coffee roaster, initially operating inside the PonyRide entrepreneurial incubator before relocating to a 2,900 square foot space in the Eastern Market District. The build out of the current facility was funded in part by a Kickstarter campaign that raised over $21,000. The roastery focuses exclusively on single origin coffees with no blends, letting variety, processing method, and terroir speak for themselves. All roasting happens on a 6 kilo Mill City machine under tight micro roaster quality control, with beans sourced from Ally Coffee and small farms in Kenya, Brazil, Guatemala, and beyond. The space doubles as a tasting room with two 18 foot custom coffee bars.
