Not sure which Tier 1 roast is your roast? Try them all!

Our sampler pack gives you the full Thou Mayest experience without committing to a full bag. Same coffee. Just smaller. And arguably cuter.

It’s perfect for gently nudging someone into the Thou lifestyle without overwhelming them. A friendly “hey, try this” instead of a full-blown caffeine intervention.

New here? Welcome. This is the easiest way to taste the standards that started it all.

After decades of searching for the absolute best coffee—and enjoying some rather good ones!—I found Wild Child. It’s over-the-top THE BEST. Consistently fresh and flavorful…and now delivered to my door. Couldn’t be better! Thanks, ThouMayest.

Good coffee, but a bit tame for my tastes. I would call this Calm Child. If you’re looking for a mild coffee with notes of citrus, this is for you.

Wild Child is my favorite Ethiopian roast

Man, does Thou Mayest do it right. This is a Light/Med Ethiopian roast. meaning it's slightly more roasted than some other African beans I've had; it is VERY light roast by S American bean standards. It's perfect. The only thing i was change as to reduce the number of "Quakers". I probably had 30 or more in the 5 lb bag. Do you guys not have an optical filter to rid those?
Thank you for Wild Child. I love it.

The only coffee I drink

I have been completely spoiled by Thou Mayest's Wild Child coffee. It's the best, smoothest, most flavorful, perfectly balanced coffee I've been able to find.

The only coffee I can’t live without.

I began drinking Wild Child the first year Thou Mayest opened. I’ve always been a coffee drinker but was content to drink many different brands as well as flavors. After drinking Wild Child in a French Press, I was hooked! I have only drank this blend for years and it continues to be the only one blend I drink every day!
