In this episode of Taste of Place, Northshore's Trey Malone sits down with Bartholomew Jones, founder of Cxffeeblack in North Memphis, to talk about the journey from White Haven apartments to the coffee forests of Ethiopia. From wanting to be a missionary or video game designer to running what Bart calls "a mix of the barber shop, a coffee nerd's dream, and a DJ set," it's a conversation about divine logic, unadulterated connection, and the power of saying "God don't make no junk." You'll hear about naturally processed Guji, the theology of terroir, and why an anti-gentrification coffee shop...

Coffee is from Africa, yet the way we think of and enjoy coffee today is largely separated from the roots that produced that original fruit. The disparity we see in the value stream today, where those growing coffee do not receive the fruit of their labor, is the consequence. Today we get to talk with someone who has been laboring hard to honor coffee's root in an effort to create a better future for both those who grow coffee as well as for under served communities whose own cultures are tied closely to coffee's history.

What's in Your Cup? A Special Coffee Conversation featuring The Cxffeeblack Podcast
Episode Notes I love a good cup of coffee, but if I'm being honest, I never really gave much thought to where my coffee came from or the history of this delicious beverage itself. That was until I learned about Cxffeeblack, a Memphis-owned coffee company, and its associated Anti-Gentrification Coffee Club. Founded in 2019, by husband and wife team, Bartholomew Jones and Renata Henderson, Cxffeeblack is a community-oriented, multi-disciplinary, education-based coffee company that’s centered around reclaiming coffee’s Black roots. Coffee originates in Ethiopia, but because of trade and colonialism, there are now coffees that we’v...

In fact, coffee is a global industry worth $495 billion per year but less than 1% of this revenue returns to people of African descent, who are the originators of coffee, or to African countries, where the majority of our coffee is imported from, highlighting the ongoing inequalities in the coffee trade.

For the conscious consumer, buying local products is a way to shorten that distance between us and what we eat or drink, and maybe even learn more about how it was produced by talking to the people who made it. But what about something like coffee, which doesn’t grow anywhere near those of us living in the continental United States? Do you know where your coffee comes from? And if you do know what country it comes from, maybe from the bag or canister you bought your beans in, do you know how it was grown? Or who gr...

Episode Notes In the U.S. coffee is commonly associated with Starbucks, a daily pick-me-up taken on the go, or a fancy specialty coffee shop often located in a gentrified neighborhood. However coffee has a deeply Black and deeply communal history. What would it mean to understand coffee’s Black history and its Black future? Cxffeeblack is on a mission to find out. On this episode, I’m joined by Bartholomew Jones, a Memphis-born entrepreneur who in late 2018 co-founded Cxffeeblack, a Black social enterprise alongside his wife, Renata Henderson, Memphis’ first Black female coffee roaster.

We received a lot of great feedback on the episode last month with our friend, Bartholomew Jones from Cxffeeblack, so we brought him back on the podcast for a follow up. We had a very open conversation about the realities for People of Color in the specialty coffee industry as well as business as a whole. As always, I welcome and appreciate any feedback.

Cxffeeblack is a brand, an educational platform, a music outlet, an informative podcast, connecting the ancestral history of coffee to the modern day. Renata and Bartholomew, who are married and raising two children in Memphis, Tennessee, didn’t just aim to start a business, but set off on a mission to impact social change. “The cxffee plant was stolen from Africa in 1616 by two Dutch spies.

27. A Conversation with Bartholomew Jones from Cxffeeblack
Given the current (and very necessary) dialogue that we're having in the US, we decided to post this podcast a few days in advance.
