About Keweenaw Coffee Works

We believe coffee is more than black and white. Each unique varietal tells a story of the place where it was grown and the people whose love and care brought it from the farm to your cup. Whether you brew our artisan roasted beans at home or enjoy them in a handcrafted drink at our Calumet café, we strive to present the full spectrum of flavors and faces, stories and soul that go into every delicious sip. Keweenaw Coffee Works is a social enterprise that offers high-quality small-batch specialty coffee across the Midwest, while proudly celebrating the natural and cultural beauty of our home in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Founded and run by husband-wife team Nate Shuttleworth and Valerie Baciak, our brand is built on a value for equal partnership, creative collaboration, and the joy of making and sharing the good stuff. We source exceptional coffees from small artisanal farms around the world, working with suppliers who prioritize ethical practices and sustainable product. Upon arrival at our Calumet roasterie, SCA Roasters Guild-trained roaster Nate Shuttleworth and team process each green coffee in small batches to consistently bring out the unique notes of taste and texture in each variety. With over 30 years’ experience in the professional coffee industry, our team makes a lot more than lattes. We take pride in crafting a meaningful experience that can’t be found anywhere else in the Keweenaw. (Dare we say, the entire Upper Peninsula.) Read their story
