Beansmith's

Beansmith's was founded by a group of friends near Prague in 2013, with the first coffee roasted in April 2014 from a small Czech made electric roaster installed in a reconstructed village smithy in Úhonice. The operation grew through deliberate equipment upgrades, moving from a 15 kilogram Garanti in 2016 to a Loring roaster in 2018, each step raising the precision and consistency of their profiles. Head roaster Kuba oversees green coffee purchasing, profiling, and quality control, working with importers to source from small family farms in equatorial countries, including long term partnerships like the one with the Lopez family in Colombia. Every coffee is roasted to find a balance that preserves sweetness without pushing acidity too far or falling into overdevelopment, with each batch logged through an external data monitoring system tied to the Loring. Beansmith's supplies over 40 partner locations across Czechia and Slovakia and operates its own space in Prague's Smíchov neighbourhood.
