A pioneer of the Belgian specialty coffee scene, Caffenation was founded by Rob Berghmans in Antwerp in 2003. It started as a small roastery and bar with a mission to introduce lighter, more flavorful third wave coffee to a city accustomed to traditional dark roasts. Rob's approach is obsessive and driven by quality, focusing on sourcing transparently traded green beans of the highest grade. They are known for their trans seasonal espresso blends and a wide array of single origin filter coffees, roasted to highlight clarity, sweetness, and the unique character of each origin.
