Who We Are:

Freedom 1 Coffee is owned by an active-duty Army officer. Our dream is to provide freedom-loving Americans with revolutionary coffee. When you choose to buy coffee from Freedom 1 Coffee, you are not just buying a bag of beans, you are buying an experience. We care about your experience so much that we ensure every order that leaves our facility is accompanied by a hand-written thank you card.
