About Airship:


Our roasting business was born in response to the need to create demand for coffee growers that we were working with. Mark was completing his masters degree in horticulture, with the intention of starting a blueberry farm in Arkansas, when he had the opportunity to travel to Central America to help set up sustainable agriculture projects with coffee growing communities in Honduras and Guatemala.


It was there that he fell in love with coffee; the growing, post-harvest processing, roasting, cupping and complexities of building a supply chain from tree to cup.
Mark's sensory education started in an exporters cupping lab in Guatemala City, where he learned the process of cupping from top cuppers in the country. This was where he discovered the diversity of coffee flavor and the flavor subtleties of Guatemala’s growing regions, terroir, elevation and other variables affecting quality. From there he began developing the rich relationships that are still present in our business today, more than ten years later.
