Captain Kirwin’s Coffee

Captain Kirwin’s Coffee

Cape Town's Most Fun Freshly Roasted Coffee.

As a background actor on the pirate set of Black Sails, watching his pirate mates repeatedly upset by the freeze-dried chicory they were offered, Captain Kirwin saw an opportunity and began bringing in pirated coffee to sell to his crew and around production on the recording sets. Although the coffee was greatly inconsistent at first, it was the start of something great. After the passing of his dear mother, he remembered how she placed importance on finding the right beans and roast quality. With the guidance of his Cuban friends at the legendary El Greeyo Roastery, he learned the art of roasting coffee to perfection. From the early roast rooster days, the aim was to make Cape Town’s most fun freshly roasted coffee. With his humble background actor beginnings, Captain Kirwin made every customer feel like a celebrity with pictures on the ‘extras’ wall of fame philosophy. Tourists often rush to the shop to snap and tag coffee their moments.

Finding the Best Coffee to Brew
