Paupaiz Coffee

Our Story

In 1976, at the Paris Wine Tasting, Napa Valley wines won in a blind tasting competition against their French counterparts. A year later, a Napa Valley coffee company was founded. In the early years, Paupaiz resold commercial brand coffees, but that changed in 1988 when Paupaiz invested in a hand built gas-fired coffee roaster and begin creating roasting recipes for some of the finest coffees in the world. Two decades later, proprietors Curtis Susuki and Rebecca Flores continue to roast coffees to the same flavor profiles and in the tradition established by the founders. 

At Paupaiz Fine Coffees you won't find designer furniture, snazzy music, swanky lights or hip baristas. What you will find are some of the world's best coffee varietals that are carefully selected and blended to produce some of the world's best coffees. Paupaiz has been roasting and blending coffee for over two decades. Nothing fancy, just hand-roasted coffees for some of the most prestigious resorts, hotels, bed & breakfasts, and restaurants in the Napa Valley and available to you online. 

In addition to using the best coffees the world has to offer, we also select several certified organic and certified fair trade coffees that are gentle to our world and fair to its people.  We “brown bag” our coffee in compostable bags made from 40% recycled natural kraft paper and lined with “EarthFirst” film polymer made from annually renewable plants.
