Coffee punctuates life’s quietly meaningful moments: reaching for a favorite mug; a morning pause; the aroma drifting across the house; a Saturday in bed; a conversation with an old friend; the daily rituals that become part of our stories.
We started Canyon in 2016 from our LA apartment — inspired by a love of exploration and experiences that remind us to live from a place of wonder, openness, and possibility.
As frequent travelers, visiting beautiful coffee shops became focal points of our trips. From morning cappuccinos in Paris cafes to after-dinner espressos in Rome, coffee offered a shared lens for experiencing new places. At home in Beachwood Canyon, making coffee for each other was a treasured ritual, adding a rhythm to the busyness of life.
Over time, we became our friends’ go-to coffee resource, fielding questions on where to find the best beans, how to make a pour over, or where to get a decent cup in a random town. Inspired to turn our passion into something that could be tangibly shared (and with our collective experience working in coffee shops and with independent businesses), we partnered with James—a friend and coffee roaster—and Canyon was born.
