About Florin
Florin Coffee knows that people need coffee that tastes as good as it smells. The problem is, buying delicious coffee has gotten complicated, which makes people feel overwhelmed. It shouldn’t be that hard to enjoy a cup of coffee! So Hans and Joelle Hochstedler started Florin Coffee to make delicious coffee simple and accessible. We responsibly source coffee through importers who have long-term relationships directly with farmers and co-ops, and we continually work on our craft so it benefits everybody from coffee farmers to coffee drinkers.
Based in Columbus, OH we began with online retail four years ago, and opened the doors to our Cafe in February, 2020, just in time for a pandemic. Our amazing community ensured our doors never closed and it continues to be our joy to serve Columbus with delicious coffee. We love introducing new speciality-coffee drinkers to how great coffee can be, as well as surpassing seasoned coffee drinkers with solid and unusual flavor profiles. It’s our joy to help folks find pause in their day through the simple ritual of coffee.
