Our story

Our logo is the view from the bottom of the cup.

Sahw is Arabic for a clear sky — what you see from the bottom of the glass as you tip it back for the last sip: the rim, a blue sky and a sun rising out of the coffee. That is where we started, and where the name comes from.

  1. The rim

    The cup's edge, seen from below.

  2. The sky

    Clear, like our name.

  3. The sun

    Rising out of the coffee, every morning.

  4. The coffee

    Iced, and made slowly.

From bean to glass

Three steps, none of them rushed.

  1. We choose

    We taste every crop before it goes near the roaster. If it doesn’t shine cold, we don’t serve it.

  2. We roast

    Small batches every week, light to medium, for a sweetness that holds up to ice.

    Beans dropping from the roaster into the cooling tray
  3. We brew

    Weight, time and temperature for every glass — and ice made from filtered water, so it never changes the taste.

كولد برو الغروب
