Felix Teiretzbacher founded kaffeelix in 2012, initially to supply his own café before specializing completely in roasting. His approach is to roast coffees relatively light, a method that highlights the unique characteristics of a bean's origin and processing rather than masking them with roasted notes. This dedication has paid off, with Felix winning the World Coffee Roasting Championship in 2022.
