Roasted to give back · from the clarinet shop

Your clarinet is blackwood.
So is your next cup.

We pick, get beans roasted, and ship specialty coffee — and give the proceeds back to causes we care about, including the trees that grow the wood your clarinet is made from. The same care we bring for your horn, a different kind of dark and resonant.

Why a clarinet shop sells coffee
Brian Corbin with a coffee, Corbin Clarinet Products

We’re avid coffee people who wanted to give back to the music community.

Brian and Lilly drink a lot of coffee. Blackwood Coffee grew out of that — our own coffee company, built to support the musical world that’s been their life’s work.

Every bag is roasted to order and shipped fresh, from the same team you trust for your horn. Add one to your next clarinet order and skip a second checkout.

Every bag gives back

Buy a bag, support a cause.

We’re not a nonprofit and we don’t pretend to be — we simply donate the proceeds. Use a partner’s code at checkout for a discount, and your purchase sends proceeds to their work.
