Tail Of The Dog

 

Blind Dog Coffee Roasters was established in 2007, by founder Mark Berry in Reno, Nevada.  Mark as a young child developed cancer that threatened his eyesight, through radiation he won the fight. Many years later, by the fall of his 49th birthday, he became legally blind. No longer able to earn a living as he had done the past 30 years, Mark decided along with his family, that he would learn to professional roast coffee and in doing this Blind Dog Coffee Roasters was born.  Working side by side with his family for several years, Mark decided it was time to retire and has passed along his company to his family.     

Still clinging tight to the core values Mark has set in place; always wanting to offer our customers a specialty high-quality coffee at a fair price and being able to give back to the community, especially to the Northern Nevada Children's Cancer Foundation and so many other charities close to our heart. 

Even blind dog himself doesn’t do the roasting anymore, but he helps us see what we’re capable of accomplishing.

 Today, our family continues to roast with heart, bag with a smile, and look for ways to give back to our community. Just think, with every cup of Blind Dog Coffee help us give a child the chance to fight, the chance to dream, and the chance to live.

 

 Good people. Fresh coffee. Guaranteed to put a wag in your tail.
