The Black Cat Project™ is by design a pursuit of something we’ll never catch: the perfect espresso in all of its manifestations. But that doesn’t mean we’ll ever stop chasing it. This project is rooted in our belief that espresso brewing is still coffee brewing and that only the best coffees can make the best espressos. We want to push the boundaries on flavor. We want you to experience amazing single origin, Micro-Lot and seasonal espressos with truly distinct flavor profiles that reach far beyond “chocolate” or “caramel”.

We are equally committed to developing the tools for the craft of the Barista, from those that are an extension of their hands, to competition-honed training, to machines they will revere, to the perfect vessels for all things espresso. Ultimately we hope to bring all of these disparate pieces together and leave you with the beautiful simplicity and complexity you’ll find on the other side of a great shot of espresso.


The never ending pursuit to re-invent espresso.
