MAME means 'beans' in Japanese, and this Swiss specialty coffee roaster takes that dedication seriously. Based across Switzerland with six locations, they started sourcing and roasting their own coffee in 2020. They split their offering into daily coffees—available as espresso or filter roast for home or cafes—and competition-grade lots selected by Emi, the 2018 World Brewers Cup Champion, and Mathieu, a World Barista Finalist. Expect rotating single-origin finds like a pink bourbon that tastes like peach iced tea. They offer subscriptions for both daily and competition coffees. For MAME, competing isn't about trophies; it's about pushing knowledge forward and building friendships along the way.
