About

The Story So Far…

Black Coffee & Rye was born out of a simple idea: life tastes better when you slow down long enough to appreciate true quality. The well-made. The well-worn. In a world of the ‘throw-away’, we instead look to the products that could last a lifetime, and making memories that will never fade away.
