Meet the blend that's changing the retail coffee world

Why all the buzz about our Joe Knows Coffee™ selection? Because Joe Coffee™ has it all – great coffee, great price and award-winning package designs.

The story of Joe Knows Coffee begins when we wanted to add a brand to our product mix that would appeal to mainstream coffee drinkers. The criteria were quite simple – first, like all of our coffees, the selection had to offer exceptional blends.

As with any new concept, we weren’t sure how this would be received, yet we moved forward, and the best of the best, our CEO, Angelo Oricchio, developed a medium roast blend named Wake Up Joe and a distinct bold, rich dark roast with a unique smooth finish that is rare to find in dark roasted coffees. This we named Tall Dark and Handsome, which we refer to as "TDH." It is our number one selling branded coffee.

From there, we collaborated with an extremely creative and talented design firm who suggested a bold concept and look. Our new blends, Wake Up Joe and Tall Dark and Handsome, were packaged with a simple, bold look that highlighted the name "Joe" in a vertical format on the front of the bag. Wake Up Joe was packaged in a plain, red bag with a white "Joe" and Tall Dark and Handsome in a coffee-colored bag with a coordinating red "Joe" on the front. They were introduced in 2009 at a Fancy Food show. The simple, no-nonsense packaging was an immediate hit, capturing the attention of national buyers, and orders for our Joe Knows Coffee products followed.

While it was exciting for us that our Joe Knows Coffee was well-received by buyers, the real test would be the end user. Once again, Joe Knows Coffee was a hit, as our new brand offered the consumer exceptional coffee blends, options to meet a variety of tastes and an attractive price point.
