Biscayne Coffee: A Year of Brewing Good in Miami
A year ago, coffee and conservation merged to form an exceptional brew in Miami with the birth of Biscayne Coffee. This distinctive brand, founded by hospitality industry expert Steve Turk, has been making waves not just for the quality of its coffee but also for its commitment to restoring Biscayne Bay, an idyllic lagoon at the center of Miami and home to the third-largest offshore reef in the world.
Biscayne Coffee was born out of a vision to enjoy delicious coffee while making a difference to the ecology of Biscayne Bay. The company's logo, inspired by the manatees that inhabit Biscayne Bay, is a testament to its mission. This commitment extends to the company's operations, with 10% of all sales being donated to the Biscayne Bay Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the bay's natural beauty and ecological balance.
A personal encounter with the effects of environmental degradation on Biscayne Bay inspired Turk's endeavor. The shocking sight of a dead manatee amidst a massive fish kill triggered a desire to contribute to the preservation of the bay, leading to the conception of Biscayne Coffee.
In terms of product quality, Biscayne Coffee is no less impressive. Their coffee is ethically sourced, sustainably grown, and handpicked, before being roasted to perfection and shipped straight to the customers' doors. The product lineup features a variety of blends, including Biscayne Blend Dark Roast, Biscayne Single Origin Colombia, and Biscayne Blend Light Roast, each offering a unique flavor profile that caters to different palates.
Apart from coffee, the brand also offers coffee mugs, tumblers, and branded merch, bolstering its eco-friendly stance and facilitating a lifestyle rooted in sustainability.
Over the past year, Biscayne Coffee has been embraced by the local community. It has become the official coffee in all 52 Tangy Management vacation rentals throughout the South Florida area and has also gained sponsorship roles in the hospitality industry, further expanding its reach and influence.
Looking back on the first year of Biscayne Coffee, it's evident that the brand has not just served good coffee but has also made strides in promoting environmental awareness and preservation. As it moves forward, Biscayne Coffee continues to embody the spirit of its tagline: "Drink good coffee and create a good outcome".
To celebrate this one-year milestone, why not raise a mug of Biscayne Coffee today? It's not just about the pleasure of a well-roasted brew—it's about savoring the taste of coffee that does good.
