About Us
A veteran owned & operated small business
606 Coffee Roasters was founded by Purple Heart recipient and Army Veteran Alberto Boleres. While serving in Iraq, Boleres noticed how people were willing to stand in long lines, under the scorching desert sun, to get their hands on a cup of their favorite caffeinated beverage. It was then that he decided to help satisfy people's deep cravings with premium coffee from his native Guatemala.
In 2011, he became certified by Guatemala’s National Coffee association, ANACAFE, while fostering relationships with the organic farms that would become the source of premium beans. By Feb 14th, 2011, a simple idea had transformed into a business.
