Our signature coffee blend recipe, the Heart & Soul Blend, was created by local community members over ten years ago to provide a great tasting coffee for every occasion. Our medium-dark roast recipe combines the beans of Latin America and Indonesia to create a smooth and delicate profile that customers have loved and touted as a fantastic coffee for years.
Beyu Caffe (pronounced be-you) was founded in 2009 by Dorian Bolden to be the ultimate community gathering place where everyone could “be you”. The name and idea stems from Dorian’s lifelong experiences in various social and cultural settings whereby he believes that we all have more in common than we do differences; and he believes that if you ultimately believe in yourself and the God-given talents you were born with, then God and the Universe will handle everything else. Ultimately, you simply need to be true to yourself and “be you”.
Today Beyu Caffe, Beyu Blue Coffee, and Beyu Catering comprise of our total operations. As we continue to grow, we will see where the universe will take us.
