Two years ago, I started experimenting with coffee in my kitchen, roasting on a tiny manual machine and giving away beans to family and friends.

I named this project Obra to represent my Cuban-American heritage. Obra is Spanish for “work”. A work of art, a work of literature, or even your life’s acts and deeds.

The duck in our logo is a doodle I found in my 6-year-old daughter’s sketches. It’s my joy to share her work, and mine, with you.
