Civic Roasters is a third wave coffee company, based out of Tacoma, Washington. It was founded in 2018 by Benita Ki and her two friends, after years of imagining and dreaming how social entrepreneurship could help empower their community. Their vision for Civic Roasters is to provide ethically and sustainably sourced coffee, roasted perfectly for all people to enjoy, and to inspire greater connections across the city by providing training and employment to formerly incarcerated women.

Your Top Questions Answered

Why Shop With Sueños Coffee Co.?

We believe everyone should have access to quality coffee no matter where they reside. With Sueños Coffee Co., you have access to some of the best women-owned coffee brands at your fingertips without even leaving your home.

We carefully select every roaster we partner with, to make sure you are receiving not only high-quality coffee, but also a product that support the community as a whole.

What does this mean? We make sure roasters we partner with have ethical sourcing methods and give back in various ways to their communities.

Every purchase with Sueños Coffee Co., has big impact!

Why Only Carry Women-Owned Coffee Brands?

Leadership and ownership in the coffee industry is very male dominated. We are therefore very passionate about bringing to light more of the amazing women in coffee that are often overshadowed, by providing more consumer access and awareness to women-owned coffee brands. Closing the gender equity gap in the coffee industry is a group effort, and we are excited to be a part of this movement!

How Do Our Coffee Subscriptions Work?

First you choose between a rotating subscription or one of our prepaid options.

  • For our rotating subscription choose a delivery frequency of every 1, 2, 4, or 6 weeks, your desired roast type, and your desired grind size. Every shipment, we'll select a new coffee from our roster based on your preferences and ship it right to your door. You can pause, cancel, skip, or even gift a shipment at any time.

  • For our prepaid subscriptions, your coffee will be sent every month for the specified time you choose (3, 6, or 12 months). You choose your desired roast type and grind size, and pay one price up front. No need to worry about a recurring charge. We'll send you a new coffee from our roster every month for the duration of your subscription. These will not automatically renew.

For all subscription options, every coffee is roasted and shipped directly from the roaster, so your shipping time will depend on their roasting schedule and USPS shipping times. 

See our shipping policy for more information.
