Big Step Coffee, a small-batch coffee roaster based in California, is redefining the coffee experience with its exceptional, globally sourced beans. Founded by coffee enthusiast Kyle Hayslip, Big Step began as a passion project in 2016 when Kyle immersed himself in the art of roasting and brewing. The name “Big Step” carries a heartfelt meaning—coined by Kyle’s young son, who would excitedly call out “Big Step!” whenever he encountered a crack in the sidewalk. This simple phrase became a symbol of adventure, perseverance, and embracing challenges—values that are now infused into every batch of Big Step Coffee.

At Big Step Coffee, quality is the priority. Each small batch is roasted with precision to highlight the beans’ rich, bold flavors. Sourcing directly from farmers and suppliers who share a commitment to sustainability and ethical practices, Big Step offers a diverse selection of beans from the lush highlands of Central America to the vibrant landscapes of Africa.

Big Step Coffee recently teamed up with Just Mystic, an apparel brand known for its effortlessly stylish, sporty streetwear with a “simple, clean, and classic” aesthetic. As Just Mystic’s latest wholesale customer, Big Step is expanding its reach while staying true to its core values. With merchandise available in sizes for both adults and toddlers, this partnership reflects both brands’ dedication to quality and authenticity, bringing more people together over exceptional coffee.

For those who appreciate small-batch craftsmanship and a story behind every sip, Big Step Coffee is more than just a brew—it’s a journey worth savoring. With your purchase of a Big Step Coffee pocket T-shirt, get 15% off a bag of the single origin Guatemalan coffee beans (applied when you add the coffee to your cart).
