Summit Sisters Coffee

Summit Sisters Coffee:
We offer retail bags of specialty coffee from all over the world!! What makes us unique is that we have a coffee for any level enthusiast. When someone stops at our tent we are able to pair them with a coffee they would enjoy by finding out how they brew their coffee, what they have enjoyed in the past, and what roast level they like. We even have little jars for each of our coffees so that they can experience the aroma of our coffee before purchasing. Due to the fact that we are directly linked to a wholesale roastery, we get new and delicious coffees every month! Our specialties have been decadent flavored coffees (ex. Tennessee Whiskey, White Russian, Maple Bourbon, and Snickerdoodle). Most coffee shops in Nashville do not offer flavored coffee and they have been our best sellers! We also offer single origin coffee from all over the world, organic coffee, and high-end specialty coffees (ex. Costa Rica Geisha, Costa Rica Black Honey, and pure Hawaiian Kona). During our markets we bring free brewed samples of our coffee of the month for people to try but we are not a full service coffee cart. We focus on bringing a good variety of coffees to choose from (usually 10-15 different coffees) at the markets so that our customers can have access to perfectly curated freshly roasted coffee at home.

Women Coffee Roasters:
Summit Sisters Coffee is a retail division of Summit Coffee Company ran by us (two sisters). Our passion in life has always been caring for others and we want our customers to experience the care and passion that we put into each coffee roast. Building relationships and providing support is very important to us and we have seen how coffee brings people together. Also, by supporting a female roasters consumers can help make the coffee industry more equitable and accessible for women.

Family Run Business:
Our father started Summit Coffee Company in our basement almost 30 years ago (one of the first roasteries in Nashville). We grew up with the wonderful smell of coffee permeating our home. Coffee has always been a big part of our lives, so we decided to immerse ourselves into coffee and start learning the nuances of roasting from our dad. He has passed down years of coffee knowledge to us and we continually learn and grow and apply that to each batch. We are so lucky to be able to work together as a family!

Micro Batch:
By keeping coffee batches smaller (Less than 25 lbs per roast), we can keep a close eye on every batch. This ensures that it is roasted to perfection. This level of control means a more artisanal level of quality in every batch. All of our Crown Jewel Coffees are air roasted. Air roasting uses precision temperature control and air flow to provide you with the clearest cup of coffee. Unlike traditional roasting methods, the air shoots the bean shaft out of the roaster and this process creates a smooth, perfectly balanced cup of coffee. A clear cup of coffee allows for the complex flavors to shine through the whole cup.
