"We were born in Cuba. Back in Cuba they started roasting coffee in the 1930s and growing coffee in the 1870s," said co-owner Pedro Gaviña. "We grew up in the coffee business. I remember my good days were going to the coffee plantation during the holidays for the harvest of the coffee. "
Today, their coffee company roasts millions of pounds of beans yearly, including providing coffee for the biggest fast-food chain in the nation, McDonald's, where Gaviña played a key role in revolutionizing coffee sales with the debut of the "McCafe".
