Family Owned, Operated, and Argued about Since 1993
Klatch is a family-owned and run coffee company based in Southern California and distributed worldwide. We source, roast, and brew our own coffee and apply our scientific method to accomplish a taste best described with expletives and exclamations. Some say it’s obsessive, we say it’s fun.
Our methodical approach is a mix of coffee artistry and mad scientist — obsessively meticulous and thoroughly documented over many tastings to get it just right. We call it our “peak of flavor method,” and it’s earned us a spot on the world coffee stage for three decades and counting.

Mike Perry
Mike wears many hats at Klatch: Roastmaster, Green buyer, CFO, and Dad. His background in chemical engineering and love for great coffee balances science and artistry in what we call the “Peak of Flavor” roasting style, resulting in the perfect cup.
It’s our belief that the art of Klatch begins right where the seeds are planted, so Mike painstakingly travels the globe to select the finest results of each harvest, so you get the finest coffee available.
Mike also curates our Single Origin Club, selecting a new single origin coffee monthly for subscribers.

Cindy Perry
Cindy is the calm and sweet presence that our team looks up to as a great role model.
She has been described by her daughters as the glue that holds Klatch together and by her husband as the "better half.”
