    It was full-bodied and balanced, with a sweet flavor that would make it an excellent daily coffee choice.

Editor's Overview

Formerly recognized as Alterra Coffee Roasters until July 2013, the company produces its coffee blends and food items within Milwaukee, gaining a prominent reputation as a wholesale coffee distributor nationwide. Mars Inc. acquired Alterra in 2010 and uses it for many of its convenience format brands, notably Freshpacks pouches for Flavia machines.

A significant shift occurred on July 28, 2013, when the Alterra cafes and specialty roasting spun back out rebranded to Colectivo Coffee, with its former owners at the helm.
