The story of Johan & Nyström
Johan & Nyström is a coffee roaster that started in October 2004 after about three years of planning. Its roastery was in Tullinge, south of Stockholm, and when Realtid covered the company in 2005 it was described as the first new coffee roastery in Sweden in 60 years. Even then it bought its coffee directly from growers in countries such as Kenya, Indonesia, Brazil and Jamaica.
The café on Swedenborgsgatan in the heart of Södermalm was the roaster's first concept shop and has since gathered a loyal crowd of regulars. It serves everything from cappuccino to hand-brewed cups of the latest single-origin coffees, and sells beans to take home. Johan & Nyström also runs a café in Helsinki.
