Partner Highlight — Partners Coffee

Partners Coffee is a Brooklyn-born roaster built on the belief that good coffee brings people together. Since opening its doors in 2012, the company has been dedicated to sourcing, roasting, and sharing coffees that honor the stories of the producers it works with and the communities it serves.

The team has long admired KINTO for its timeless design and thoughtful approach to elevating everyday coffee moments, making the partnership a natural fit. KINTO’s refined, functional wares beautifully complement Partners Coffee’s offerings, both in its cafés and in the home. Together, the two brands aim to inspire more intentional, joyful coffee experiences.

Partners Coffee has chosen KINTO’s Nori cups as the pour over mugs used in its cafés to elevate the experience of enjoying handcrafted single origin coffees. The handle-less design of the Nori cup serves a purpose: customers can naturally sense when the coffee has cooled to the ideal temperature for that first sip. This intentional design encourages drinkers to savor the nuanced flavors as the coffee cools, revealing layers of complex notes that make each single origin unique. As the temperature drops, the flavors become more pronounced, creating a sensory journey that enhances the overall enjoyment of the coffee-drinking experience.
