Frequently Asked Questions

For optimal freshness, we recommend that you store the coffee in a cool, dry place. Our coffee is nitrogen-flushed when packaged to displace oxygen and ensure maximum freshness. Coffee does not go bad, but if exposed to oxygen, it will oxidize and lose freshness over time. For this reason, we recommend consuming within a month after opening.
Each of our coffees is roasted fresh by our team of firefighters, first responders, and coffee experts, to ensure each cup tastes as fresh and delicious as it should.
Our coffee beans are carefully reviewed by our Q-grader before and after roasting to ensure the best flavor profile. This attention to detail creates the depth, complexity, and noticeable difference in taste that sets our coffee apart.
We roast high-quality coffee beans from around the world. Before we begin our roasting process, all of our beans go through a strict testing and evaluation process. This includes making sure the farms are environmentally and socially responsible.

    My new go to!

    Shellback espresso is now my go to for morning “wake me up” coffee. I start with this, then follow up with skull crusher espresso mid afternoon and my days are much smoother now! This stuff beats regular station coffee big time. The flavor alone is incredible. I’m usually a creamer and sugar over-loader, but not anymore. A tiny bit of sweet cream into a cup of this and it’s pure bliss! It’s the best “coffee” flavor I’ve ever found and when you combine that with an amazing company on a heartfelt mission…why would anyone drink anything else? This is hands down the best coffee EVER!!!!

    Delicious and effective!

    If you're a coffee lover, please don't hesitate to try this brand. I love espresso coffee but it's not for the weak. This will give you the jolt you need to get up and go (in more ways than one...) It's also delicous!

    4-0 Coffee !

    12-02-87 initiated into "the solumn mysteries of the ancient order of the deep" aboard the good ship USS IOWA BB-61 and became a loyal Shellback at 064° 72' 00" W / 000° 00' 00".

    You've evidently BTDT when you say every Sailor is a Firefighter, this is a fact that most often only Sailors know. Some of us have faced "the beast", most have not thankfully.........which brings me to your excellent coffee varieties, when my wife brought home a bag of Shellback I was dumbstruck at first, this has to be a sales ploy I thought to myself.....then I ran a K-cup through the machine and into my 100th anniversary CPO mug.....WOW ! Talk about "Reveille-Reveille" and "Attention on Deck" ! !....this old Chief is 100% sold on your Shellback Espresso....

    From Vet to Vet, Sailor to Sailor...A very hearty BZ and Well Done there folks.
