OUR STORY
Casa Cafetzin Coffee Roasters:
A Journey of Passion and Exploration
Casa Cafetzin Coffee Roasters was born from a deep passion for exploration and a love for exceptional coffee. Founded by Ale, a lifelong explorer and traveler, our story began 12 years ago in the enchanting town of Auroville, India. It was here that Ale first encountered the magic of fresh-roasted coffee at a French-owned roastery. Captivated by the intricate process and the exquisite flavors, a spark was ignited.
Ale's journey took her to the hidden corners of Mexico, where she visited numerous coffee producers in remote and secluded areas. Eager to learn from the best, she spent four years immersed in the world of coffee, gaining invaluable knowledge from Mexico's top roasters and cuppers. With a wealth of experience and a heart full of passion, Ale decided to bring the art of specialty coffee to her hometown, opening the first specialty coffee shop in Ciudad Juárez.
In 2019, Ale was joined by Arturo, a meticulous coffee roaster who shares her dedication to quality. Together, they expanded Casa Cafetzin to El Paso, Texas, creating a sister coffee shop and roastery that bridges the border cities. Their philosophy is simple yet profound: always be learning. Ale and Arturo continue to visit coffee farmers, seeking to deepen their understanding and appreciation of the craft.
At Casa Cafetzin, we believe in the power of education and community. We offer barista training, coffee education, and consultancy services to help aspiring coffee shop owners realize their dreams. Our mission is to share our love for coffee, from the farm to your cup, fostering a culture of continuous learning and exceptional quality.
