Our coffee expert
Aubrey Mills
6+ years experience as Coffee Taster, Wholesale Director, barista and Coffee Quality Director.
Aubrey Mills is steeped in coffee. Not literally, of course, but since 2013, she’s been preparing and tasting coffee for a career. Initially as a barista at the Portland, OR Insomnia Coffee and Dapper & Wise, her job was to stay on top of quality and help customers find coffees they were excited about. This involved tasting all the coffees they’d be serving that day, dialing in espresso or approve a drip recipe.
She soon became Director of Wholesale at Dapper & Wise, where she regularly cupped at quality control cuppings with the team, hosted cuppings for the public and trained wholesale partners on proper coffee preparation. In the role of helping to maintain Dapper & Wise’s menu of diverse flavor profiles, roast levels and processing methods, Aubrey also visited coffee producing countries. She says, “Traveling to origin and experiencing the beginning of the coffee journey has given me greater perspective for how many variables can impact flavor in the final cup.”
Along with her on-point palate and killer coffee know-how, Aubrey brings creativity, sparkle and grace to everything she does, actively looking for opportunities to showcase the value of specialty coffee and address sustainability issues in the industry.

"Nostalgic and vibrant flavors, this one is enjoyable to most! I taste the makings of a dessert; chocolate cake, raspberry jelly, and lemon zest. The finish is long and dry with a creamy mouthfeel. "
Olympia Coffee Roasting
No cause partially fulfilled, Olympia cares about a lot - and you can taste it. Neatly tucked beneath the title, "Fair For All", this certified B Corp has championed a program that promotes a better quality of life for farmers, employees and customers. You can find the prices they paid for coffee in their publicly published annual transparency report, a model they are glad to share with other roasters to do the same. Olympia also provides many benefits to their employees that are uncommon to the service industry and believes that those who buy their coffee will feel rewarded knowing their coffee purchase is a guilt-free one.
Integrity aside, Olympia has earned many awards for their coffee like 2014 Roaster of the Year and Food & Wine Magazine's 2019 Best coffee in Washington State.
