TWO ORIGINS. ONE CUP. NO FUSS.
The backbone. Beans from the Mogiana region between São Paulo and Minas Gerais, sourced through Cooxupé, a cooperative founded in 1937 with over 14,000 members. Hand-picked, sun-dried, mechanically finished. Nutty richness and a slow, chocolatey base. This is where the steadiness comes from.
The sweetness. From the San Ignacio region in Peru's northern highlands, where small-scale farmers grow coffee on steep, forested hillsides. These beans come through Aproselvanor, a women-led cooperative of smallholder farmers. Caramel notes, a hint of citrus, and the soft finish that keeps The Old Timer smooth instead of heavy.
THE OLD TIMER PULLS FROM TWO COOPERATIVES IN TWO COUNTRIES. THE MEDIUM-DARK ROAST TIES THEM TOGETHER, STRONG WITHOUT TIPPING INTO BURNT, FOR A CUP THAT TASTES LIKE SOMETHING WITHOUT TRYING TOO HARD.

FAQs
When is my coffee roasted?
Every week, in small batches, in Alberta. The roast date is on every bag.
Whole bean or ground? which should I pick?
Whole bean keeps the flavour locked in longer. But if you don't have a grinder, ground works just fine. We grind it right before we ship so it's as fresh as possible. No judgement either way. Just drink what works for you.
How should I store my coffee?
Cool, dry place. Keep the bag sealed. Don't put it in the fridge or freezer. That actually pulls moisture in and kills the flavour. A cupboard is perfect.
How much coffee do I need?
A 340g (12oz) bag gets most people through about 20 to 25 cups. A 2lb bag is roughly 45 to 50 cups. Depends on how strong you like it and how many cups you go through, but that's the ballpark.
Do you offer subscriptions?
Yes. Set your frequency and we'll ship automatically so you never run out. Subscribers save 15% on every order. You can pause, skip, or cancel anytime. No contracts, no hassle.

Local delivery runs Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday within 75 km of The First Sip in Leduc: $5 within 25 km and $7.50 in the Greater Edmonton Area (25 to 75 km). Order by 2pm the day before for next-day delivery. Canada-wide orders typically arrive within 3 to 5 business days. Shipping and local delivery are free on orders of $50 or more.
Can I pick up my order?
Yes. Free pickup at The First Sip, Premium Outlet Collection EIA, Leduc County, Alberta. Just select local pickup at checkout.
What if I don't like it?
Reach out to us. We're not going to make it weird. If you're not happy, we'll make it right.
Where are your beans from?
Every roast has a different origin: Brazil, Colombia, Guatemala, Peru and Mexico. The full story is in the "Origin Details" section on each product page. We are continuously expanding our sources as we grow. We know exactly where every bean comes from and who grew it.
Do you sell to businesses?
We do. We work with offices, shops, restaurants, hotels, and industrial sites across Edmonton and surrounding towns. Free delivery, flexible schedules, and equipment options available. Reach out and we'll set up a tasting for your team.
