Our Hot Coffee Offerings
Joyride is a beverage company that knows good value coffee first hand. To launch our own line up is no small feat. The Joyride coffee line offers specialty coffee at an incredibly great value.
"It took years of buying and sampling coffees, countless thousands of blind tastings, and tens of thousands of feedback data points from our customers, before we felt comfortable and confident in our ability to select a broad spectrum of great coffees that could offer compelling value for our customers," says David Belanich, Co-Founder.

We drink a lot of coffee here and wanted to create a consistent blend our team can count on no matter how long the To Do list gets. And what better way to augment crossing off those to do’s than a hearty cup of our finest blend.
Composed of Nicaraguan and Central American beans, this hearty brew has a medium roast profile, sweet with caramel notes, and is (just like us) a little nutty. This coffee embodies one of our favorite core values at Joyride. One sip and you’ll Get $#!T Done!
DAMN FINE DECAF
Our Damn Fine Decaf is a blend of 80% washed and 20% pulped natural Nicaraguan decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process (SWP) for maximum flavor.
Our decaf process is chemical-free utilizing just water, temperature and time to migrate the caffeine from the coffee beans. It’s then passed through a charcoal filter capturing the larger caffeine molecules while allowing the smaller flavor molecules to pass through to flavor town.

Our Pulley Partnership
"Working along side the best roasters in the world, we have developed a deep appreciation for the work, care, and attentiveness that goes into making a great hot coffee program,"
- Adam Belanich, Co-Founder
Our unique positioning within the beverage industry lends us the opportunity to source specialty grade coffee and offer it to our customers at an unbeatable price, but it wasn't in the cards to start a whole other roasting business just to have our own line of beans. Enter Pulley Collective and their concept of a roastery cooperative.
Pulley Collective is a communal space outfitted with a couple roasting machines inside a warehouse on the piers overlooking the New York Harbor in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Roasters from afar rotate in and out taking turns perfecting their profiles on the Probats and Lorings inside.
"Pulley is democratizing access to state of the art roasting, which i think is fantastic for the industry and premium coffee roasters," - David, Co-Founder
The Joyride coffee line offers specialty coffee at an incredibly great value
Five selections ranging in profiles: House blend, Espresso blend and Decaf + rotating Single Origins from Africa and Latin America.
Not unlike a communal work space, Pulley Collective is home to a variety of operations. We've run into many of our partners working out of Pulley, all of them there for different reasons. Parlor Coffee used Pulley to get their start, Equator is using Pulley to expand into the east coast, and even acclaimed green buyer Andrew Barnett is using this set up as homebase to roast his line of of Linea Caffe that we cold brew and sell.
"It really allows anybody who is willing to put in the time and effort to make a coffee brand without sacrificing the quality that matters so much to them," - Adam, Co-Founder
