Banibeans: a Micro Roaster With an Interesting History

The Banibeans micro roaster has a pretty interesting history. Its founder, Luka, was only 16 years old when he came up with the idea of a specialty coffee brand. Why? Because he found coffee too bitter and did not like it that much. However, he discovered that the roasting process can impact the taste. Besides, during that time, Slovenia had a lack of specialty micro roasters. These two factors became the driving force, so in 2018 (when Luka was 17), the Banibeans roastery entered the market.

Currently, the online shop offers a variety of single-origin coffees, and all of them are available only as beans. You can try coffee from Kenya, Costa Rica, Rwanda, and so on. The roast profile is light, and every coffee is roasted to suit filter brewing. The Banibeans roastery is usually not open to the public; however, you can still try their drinks at certain coffee shops. Banibeans cooperates with some of them from time to time, so follow the roaster on social media to miss nothing. Apart from this, the brand often offers new coffees, so you can count on more tastes to explore.

Another benefit is that Banibeans ships internationally. In Slovenia, orders over €30 are shipped for free. For the EU, the minimum amount for free shipping is €65, while for the US and Canada — €150. At the same time, these requirements apply only to free delivery, as, in general, there is no minimum order amount. You can purchase just a single coffee package, and that’s absolutely fine. For wholesale orders, there are exclusive discounts.
