Wholesale Partners: FCB x Garden Gourmet Cafe
Welcome to your dedicated wholesale partner page. At First Choice Brew, we look at wholesale cafe service through a strict quality lens. Because you focus on premium taste, quality and small-batch authenticity over generic, low-grade mass production, we have customized this wholesale partnership specifically to support your 3-week startup volume metrics.
To completely eliminate bean staleness and shield delicate aromatic compounds from oxidation, your wholesale program is delivered in sealed, 12oz flavor-locked bags rather than bulk size sacks. Because your baristas will open only the exact 12oz increments required for immediate daily service, your customers are guaranteed a flawless premium experience every single day.
House Drip Program: Basheemae (Single-Origin Colombia)
Sourced directly from a collective of woman owned farms located in the high-altitude terrains of Caicedo in Medellín, Colombia. This local network works directly with the neighborhood Aprokafe hub—ensuring premium payouts that consistently exceed traditional market benchmarks. Every single cup is a direct investment in local economic equity.
Taste Profile: Smooth Milk Chocolate, Creamy Honey, and Soft Vanilla Notes with an exceptionally clean, low-acidity finish.
Brew Method: drip, pour-over, french press service, Bunn machine, etc.
A standard premium commercial extraction requires 15 grams of coffee grounds per 8 oz cup. A single 12oz bag yields 22 standard gourmet servings. At your customized wholesale case metrics ($18.00/bag), your raw coffee product cost breaks down to $0.81 per brewed cup. Retailing these artisan cups to Staten Island locals for $4.50 converts your initial inventory layout into an exceptional 82% gross margin asset.
House Espresso Program: Elena (Premium Single Origin Colombia)
Sourced from Antioquia, Medellín, Colombia as an exceptional specialty achievement in selective hand-harvesting from the steep mountain slopes surrounding the Finca Santa Elena. Farmers carefully pick the coffee cherries only when they hit an optimal 20% sugar saturation level, using a meticulous natural drying process to draw out deep honeyed layers and dynamic clarity.
Taste Profile: Blackberry and Cognac, Floral Honey, and Deep Cacao.
Brew Method: Espresso extractions, premium lattes, signature iced milk drinks.

At your premium case metrics ($22.00/bag), your raw coffee product cost breaks down to $1.22 per espresso pull. Retailing lattes, specialty drinks, and double-shots for $5.00–$6.00 secures a sustainable 75%+ profit margin for your coffee counter operations.

Engineered with zero bitterness and a highly refreshing, naturally sweet yet crisp citrus. Available as a seasonal add-on case to completely round out your menu.

A standard commercial yield uses approximately 28 grams of coffee grounds per 12 oz iced cup. A single 12oz bag yields 12 rich cold brew servings. At your customized wholesale case metrics ($18.00/bag), your raw coffee product cost breaks down to $1.50 per cold brew serving.
