About Drink True North
Owners John and Maine Hofius launched Drink True North in April 2001 after quitting their careers as software analysts to start a specialty coffee roasting business. Maine, who had initially planned to build a café, had the good fortune to meet Kent Bakke, CEO of La Marzocco USA, who graciously consented to meet and go over the ins and outs of the coffee business. Maine's mind and future course were set after hearing Kent speak in detail about what they referred to as the romance and mystery of roasting. Drink True North are constantly looking for ways to innovate in their industry and find methods to give their clients better service in ways they might not even be aware they want.
