Our story
I grew up splitting time between the muddy trails of Washington State and Appalachian mountains of Western North Carolina, always chasing adventure. That itch for freedom led me to the military where I have seen the world a few times over. But nothing compares to the raw thrill and beauty of the Imperial Sand Dunes, California’s legendary dune system, also known as Glamis.
Thanksgiving weekend 2014, I rolled up solo with two 4-wheelers and a tent, not knowing a soul. After setting up camp, I grabbed a six-pack and walked to a neighboring camp with a football game projected onto the side of their RV. That night, over cold beers around a campfire, I found my tribe, and we ride together to this day.
It’s amazing when people share a common bond they can be instant friends and those friends can become family. This is how communities are made.
Glamis became my escape—a place where the roar of engines, the smell of
two stroke, and a desert sunset drowns out the noise of the 9-5 grind. In 2019,
the military moved me away to Colorado where I met my wife, but at the next
opportunity, I grabbed orders back to SoCal, determined to be near those dunes again. When I returned, it felt like coming home.
Glamis Coffee was born from that passion. I wanted a way to fuel the off-road lifestyle and give back to the community that gave me so much. Every bag of Glamis Coffee supports efforts to preserve off-roading and protect places like Glamis for future riders while also supporting the villages that it is sourced from. Unlike our competitors, we work directly with farms in Colombia and Nicaragua to bring you the best quality for your dollar.
Your normal cup of coffee has a Q score of 78-80. We only source in 84+ making this the top 1% of coffee in the world. You would have to taste the coffee to fully understand the difference.
This isn’t just coffee—it’s a quality product that we take pride in presenting, and hope you can be proud to support. Join me and my family in keeping the
adventure alive, one bold cup at a time.
