✦ INDEPENDENT CURATION OF SPECIALTY COFFEE

Devotion to the Extraordinary Cup

We do not roast commodity coffee. We dedicate our craft to exploring high-altitude terroirs, blind-cupping harvest lots, and curating sublime single-origin creations from master roasters to elevate your daily cup.

2004 • The Origin of the Quest

First Expeditions to High-Altitude Estates

Our journey began traveling through coffee farms across the high ridges of Colombia and southern Brazil. There we discovered that the secret of a memorable cup did not lie in mass industrial processing, but in the dedication of the farming family, volcanic soils, and meticulous washing protocols. We resolved to build a bridge of authentic curation between highland growers and coffee devotees.

2007 • Sensory Culture

The First Cupping Table in San Telmo

We installed our first professional sensory cupping table in Buenos Aires. While the market was dominated by over-roasted commodity coffee, we began convening baristas and enthusiasts to blind-cup micro-lots according to the SCA protocol. It sparked a community that demanded floral clarity, sparkling acidity, and genuine origin transparency.

2012 • Curation Philosophy

Alliances with Master Artisan Roasters

We drafted the founding manifesto of Nemi: rather than competing with mass production, we became the benchmark curators in the country. We partnered with Argentina’s most rigorous artisan roasters to co-design bespoke roasting curves, tailoring thermal profiles to exalt the biological terroir of each harvest.

Curation Boutique & Sensory Tasting Room

We inaugurated an architectural sanctuary in Buenos Aires, merging warm reclaimed woods and industrial corrugated steel. A space created for coffee literacy: guided cuppings, manual pour-over masterclasses, and precision grind calibrations for enthusiasts and professionals alike.

2020 • Nationwide Expansion

Birth of the Nemi Coffee Club

To deliver the experience directly to coffee lovers nationwide, we founded Club Nemi: every 30 days we curate a special flight of 3 specialty coffees and ship them freshly roasted to members across Argentina. A ritual of discovery enjoyed today by hundreds of passionate members.
