SeoulAnthracite Coffee RoastersAnthracite Coffee Roasters operates out of Seoul, South Korea, with its roots in the Hapjeong neighborhood where the company opened its first location inside a repurposed factory. The name gestures at coal — anthracite being the densest, highest-carbon grade — a fitting metaphor for a roaster that built its identity around industrial spaces transformed into serious coffee destinations. Founder and founding year are not publicly documented in available sources. From that original Hapjeong factory, Anthracite expanded steadily across Seoul before crossing the strait to Jeju Island. As of recent reports, the brand runs four outlets in Seoul and one on Jeju, making it one of the more geographically distributed homegrown specialty roasters in South Korea. The Itaewon location became a neighborhood fixture, drawing both locals and travelers into what regulars describe as one of the city's go-to coffee destinations. Anthracite's retail lineup spans blends, single-origin offerings, and cold brew, available through its online shop in 200g increments and larger bulk formats. A subscription program covers both blends and single origins. The website operates primarily in Korean and does not publicly detail sourcing partnerships or roast philosophy, so little can be confirmed about farm relationships or processing preferences beyond the product categories the company has chosen to emphasize.
