Today we’d like to introduce you to Todd Carmichael and JP Iberti.
In 1994, two guys opened a café in the middle of downtown Philadelphia. In that shop of Rittenhouse Square, they roasted small-batch, specialty coffee and introduced Philly to a warm, social café experience. They walked the city, knocking on doors of illustrious chefs and demonstrating that fine coffee can be paired with fine cuisine in an intentional, culinary way.
Now, over 23 years, millions of pounds of coffee, and a new beverage category later, Todd Carmichael and JP Iberti continue working towards their ultimate goal: making people happy with coffee.
Considered one of the pioneers of the third wave of coffee, La Colombe provides signature classic blends and exceptional single-origin coffees to cafés, hotels, restaurants and retailers around the world. In addition, the company owns and operates 25 cafés in Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. – with additional locations and new markets scheduled to open in 2017.
The company has also made headlines in the ready-to-drink business with its DRAFT LATTE© — a first-of-its-kind, ready-to-drink coffee beverage that delivers the full taste and texture of a true cold latte.
And most recently, they made headlines in the ready-to-drink business with their PURE BLACK cold-pressed coffee and cans of DRAFT LATTE© – the world’s first-ever textured cold late.
