Frida's Coffee Home

Frida's Coffee Home was founded by Frida Murillo and Zaheen Hamidani, entrepreneurs with roots in Acapulco, with one idea: bring authentic Mexican coffee culture to Canada. Travelling through Mexico deepened their connection to its coffee traditions, and the cafe on 9th Avenue SW in downtown Calgary is designed the way their home in Mexico would be. They source through direct partnerships with small farms, and roast in small batches: a light roast from Atoyac, Guerrero, which they call their hometown community, with cherry and blueberry notes; a medium roast from the hills of Huatusco, Veracruz, grown by the same families for more than three generations, with vanilla and caramel; and a medium roast from Chiapas with chocolate and walnut-like notes. Every coffee is nut-free with no additives. Beans are sold whole or ground at the cafe and online, with shipping across Canada, and the cafe also supplies offices, restaurants and coffee shops.
