Huskee has its origins in the coffee growing regions of Yunnan, China. Saxon Wright, one of our founders has a specialty coffee roasting business in Sydney, Australia and was invited to work alongside farmers in Yunnan to improve quality and environmental standards. One of the key objectives was to reduce waste, and a byproduct of processing the coffee beans is husk.
As the idea developed and the team grew, the concept evolved to turn this waste husk into a unique, reusable cup that could be used to enjoy your daily coffee (or tea). The coffee region of Yunnan is unique and beautiful, so this cup would also help draw attention to this amazing region of China and bring a new understanding of coffee and the connection back to farmers.
