Warmth, character, and balance. Three things that are vital to the recording studio, and just as essential to the perfect cup of coffee. And we should know, for over 30 years, Vintage King has been sipping on java while outfitting studios, testing gear, shipping boxes, and restoring vintage classics.
For us, great gear and coffee go hand in hand. With that in mind, we are introducing Vintage King’s Sonic Brew, four coffee blends inspired by the studio gear that is part of our daily lives. We have taken coffee to new heights with innovative roasting methods and processing tools created with period-accurate components.
