About us
Kěryǐ is born from the names of our co-founders, Ker and Yi. In Mandarin, it sounds like ‘kě yǐ’ (可以), which means ‘can’ or ‘doable.’
The brand embodies our can-do spirit. It reflects our commitment to live with passion, to believe deeply, and to give our best in everything we pursue. It serves as a daily reminder that challenges and impossibilities can be transformed into milestones through grit and heart.
We are currently a micro-roaster, retailing small batches of specialty coffee online as we await a physical space to call home. Approachability is our anchor in both our coffee selection and our roast profiling.
Our coffees are roasted and shared with pride and care, a small way to honor the passion and perseverance of producers during these trying times.
This is the philosophy of Kěryǐ.
Our approach
Coffee has opened doors and built meaningful relationships for Kěryǐ. These experiences have shaped our vision for the kind of coffee we want to share.
From green selection to roast profiling, we seek balance while highlighting terroir and varietal traits through conscious decisions at every step. Our approach allows us to present coffees with a single profile, carefully developed to suit a wide range of brewing methods. This shifts the conversation away from roasting for specific brew methods, and toward simply expressing the coffee itself.
