Why Choose Gems

Exceptional coffee Selection
After tasting over 300 locally roasted coffees, we can confidently say Alberta’s roasters are exceptional. Once you’ve experienced the unique quality of local craft coffee, supermarket brands and international conglomerates just don’t compare. Our subscription celebrates Alberta’s best—from Edmonton, Calgary, Sherwood Park, Banff, Acheson, and beyond—featuring decorated roasters who’ve represented Canada on the world stage and artisans shaping the local coffee scene in inspiring ways.

Shaping the Future of Local Coffee
When we started in 2021, we were shocked to find that over 95% of coffee in Alberta comes from outside the province. Even in cities like Edmonton and Calgary, many retailers with "local" claims carry little Alberta coffee. The local scene is fragmented, with independent roasteries and cafes as the main access points. We're here to bridge that gap and make it easier for you to find and enjoy Alberta-roasted coffee.

Extra-Ordinary Quality
We work with roasters who source beans from small farms and micro-lots—often overlooked by mass-market brands to deliver an exceptional experience to our subscribers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question?

Coffee found in grocery stores is often past its peak freshness by the time you purchase it. This is because coffee has a limited shelf life and begins to lose its flavor within 3 to 4 weeks. Many grocery store coffees have already spent that much time moving through distribution channels before reaching your shelf.

In contrast Gems sources its coffee from small-batch roasters who roast to order ensuring you receive optimal freshness and flavor.

Every month we’ll send you a new coffee from a different roaster and country of origin complete with its own unique story and details to explore. Sign up for a year and become a local coffee connoisseur discovering new flavors and experiences each month!

We offer flexible delivery options to suit your needs:
