BIGFACE is a premium specialty coffee and lifestyle brand born from an obsession with the details that separate good from great. What started as a personal ritual, a restless mind, a hotel room espresso machine, and a refusal to accept mediocre coffee, has grown into a global pursuit of the finest specialty coffees on the planet. Thoughtfully sourced. Obsessively refined. Built for people who take the ritual seriously.
WHERE IT STARTED
It did not begin with a business plan. It began in London. Jimmy went to the same coffee shop daily and made friends with an elderly lady. It’s there he realized that coffee connects people and you can find the uncommon in common over a cup of coffee. That experience lodged itself somewhere deep. Back home, coffee became another arena. The same intensity Jimmy brings to film sessions and pre-dawn workouts spilled naturally into grind sizes, water temperatures, extraction times, and origin profiles, because for Jimmy, that's just how curiosity works. If something earns a place in your daily routine, it earns your full attention. Then came the bubble. In the summer of 2020, with the NBA season locked inside Walt Disney World and the coffee options underwhelming at best, Jimmy did what Jimmy does: he found a solution and got to work. He set up a full coffee operation from his hotel room, a personal espresso machine, a French press, a pour-over, and a menu of lattes, cappuccinos, and macchiatos, and opened for business. Twenty dollars a cup. Same price for all sizes. His first customer was teammate Goran Dragic, who, by Jimmy's own account, still has not settled his tab. What teammates dismissed as a joke, Jimmy was already treating like a craft. BIGFACE was born not from a marketing strategy but from a genuine, unshakeable love for coffee and the connections it creates.
From the lab to the shelf — Jimmy's early R&D experiments laid the foundation for BIGFACE's award-winning coffee
WHAT BIGFACE IS
BIGFACE exists at the intersection of specialty coffee culture, intentional design, and the belief that the ritual of a great cup deserves the same level of commitment you bring to anything else worth doing. We partner directly with farmers and producers across the world's great coffee-growing regions, from the highlands of Ethiopia to the mountains of Colombia, the volcanic soils of Guatemala to the elevated farms of Honduras. We source exceptional single-origin, micro-lot, and multi-origin coffees through direct trade relationships, ensuring every coffee we offer is traceable, remarkable, and produced in a way that respects the people and ecosystems behind it. The same obsession that drove Jimmy to travel to coffee farms, study sourcing, and build relationships with the world's best producers drives every decision we make, from the coffees we select to the ceramic barware we design to the apparel we drop. Nothing makes it out without earning it. Our packaging has earned design awards. Our coffee has been recognized by the New York Times. We don't chase validation, but when the standards you set for yourself get noticed, that means something.
THE UNCOMMON IN COMMON
Jimmy has said it plainly: if more people sat down over a cup of coffee and figured out what they had in common, the world would look different. BIGFACE is built around that idea. Coffee is the most democratic ritual on the planet. It comes from everywhere. It connects everyone. It can be a six-dollar pour-over or a hundred-dollar flight, a quiet morning alone or the best conversation you have all year. BIGFACE is a celebration of all of it. Third wave coffee culture at its finest, where quality, transparency, and design converge without taking themselves too seriously. Whether you are dialing in your first espresso at home, chasing the perfect pour-over, or just looking for something worth drinking, BIGFACE meets you where you are and pushes you toward something better. Coffee drives us. Inspires us. Connects us. Revives us. That is not a tagline. It is how we operate.
