Nicaraguan Coffee

Belleair Coffee Co. was founded in 2016 by Chris Whalen, a former systems engineer, and his wife Cammie in Belleair Bluffs, Florida, with the goal of bringing West Coast specialty coffee culture to the Tampa Bay area. Head roaster Noah Logan operates a 15 kilo Ambex and a smaller Diedrich, roasting only Arabica beans rated 80 points or above by licensed Q Graders, which represents the top 3% of global coffee yield. The roastery favours light city and full city profiles, sourcing through Direct Trade, sustainable, and organic channels wherever possible. In a notable expansion move, their specialty grade coffees became available at 46 Walmart locations across the Tampa Bay, St Petersburg, Clearwater, and Sarasota areas. A second location in Largo features an extended 25 foot bar with a three group La Marzocco.
