About Luis Carlos Gomes of Brazil
The Sao Bento farm was first planted with coffee back in 1899 by relatives of the now-owner Luis Carlos Gomes. Over the past century plus, the farm has grown to a whopping 1,400 hectares and now produces almost 6,000 bags of coffee annually. The farm is managed by 30 full-time workers and their families who are each responsible for a specific part of the farm.

Old Soul Co.
Started by Tim Jordan and Jason Griest in an obscure alley in Sacramento in 2006, Old Soul Co. has grown rapidly but still enthusiastically shares the same vision thirteen years later: "celebrate the artisan aspects of bread baking and coffee roasting and dedicate ourselves to getting better at our crafts everyday!"
Old Soul's coffee sourcing practices set them apart: owner Jason Griest travels to as many of the farms growing Old Soul's coffees as possible. In Sacramento, Old Soul is deeply involved in volunteering and giving back to the community. The roasting company has received many 90+ and "Best Of" awards over the past years.
