Inspired by the country in which we live and the vast natural beauty of its great outdoors, Back Road aims to provide the perfect coffee to accompany your journeys through all the adventures life Canada offers.

“Taking the back roads” inspires you to take the long way, the longer way, without cutting corners in order to experience the best life has to offer and not miss any moments along the journey. We apply this same philosophy to our coffee roasting. We take the longer way, the time to ensure that quality is preserved, the time to ensure ethical and sustainable farming and sourcing practices, the time needed to develop the best flavours and aromas.

Our Coffees

From inspired blends to an ever changing variety of single-origin coffees, you can find here a freshly roasted coffee to meet your preferences.
