Discovery Coffee, based in Victoria, British Columbia, sources green coffee beans from farmers around the world, hand-selecting each lot and roasting in-house in small batches. The roaster pairs beans to specific brew methods with the goal of introducing customers to new coffees and unique brewing experiences. Central to their approach is a commitment to transparent and direct relationships with producers, developing sourcing habits described as open, connected, and attentive to the realities farmers face. This collaborative philosophy aims to elevate coffee quality from seed to cup. Discovery Coffee also prioritizes ongoing staff education as a means of extending coffee knowledge to customers. The roaster views itself as an active contributor to Victoria's growing specialty coffee scene and operates retail café locations alongside a monthly coffee subscription service. An affiliated venture, Yonni's Doughnuts, is also noted on their website.
