Artisanal Blends by E2 is a specialty coffee importer and roaster. We bring green coffee in from origin ourselves and roast it small-batch in Maryland and New York.
Because we import our own green, we can trace every origin, supply it unroasted by the tier to cafes and roasters who roast their own, and roast it to order for everyone else. Every coffee is available green, whole bean, or ground.
Green coffee from farms and washing stations we can name.
We bring it in ourselves, so we can trace it and sell it unroasted.
Small batches, roasted to order.
Delivered across the DMV and the East Coast.
Every one is available green, whole bean, or ground, and the price is the same whether you take it whole bean or ground.

Become a Retail Partner
I'm Emmanuel Etoo, the founder of Artisanal Blends by E2. I started this as a specialty coffee importer and roaster with a simple goal: bring in green coffee I believe in, roast it with care in Maryland and New York, and get it into the hands of the cafes, restaurants, and homes around me.
The photo here is me with my very first load. I am hands-on with every part of it, from sourcing the green to roasting to the drop-off. When you order from Artisanal Blends by E2, you are working directly with me.
Whether you run a busy cafe, a restaurant bar, or just want better coffee at home, I would love to put a bag in your hands.
Born in Cameroon, raised around community, family, and the traditions of the land.
Immigrated to the United States with his family at a young age and settled in Prince George's County.
Played at Eleanor Roosevelt High School and earned a scholarship to play college football at Bowie State University.
A mistake made with the wrong crowd led to a felony conviction and a prison sentence. The football dream ended there.
Every morning, men gathered with their mugs and their stories. In that small ritual, Emmanuel found solace, and a spark.
After his release he went back to family and to business, helping grow his family's healthcare company and founding a trucking company.
He came back to coffee to build something of his own: a company that joins quality, resilience, and second chances.
from the first delivery
Long before Artisanal Blends existed, coffee represented a small moment of peace during one of the hardest chapters of our founder's life. Solace carries that memory forward: rich, comforting coffee created around the idea that even difficult chapters can lead somewhere new.
The original Artisanal Blends artwork shows three versions of founder Emmanuel Etoo sharing coffee at the same table in a park.
One represents the man shaped by mistakes, risk, and adversity. One, standing in the middle, is the businessman built through discipline, experience, and ambition. The third is Emmanuel himself, grounded and reflective, listening to both. Artisanal Blends by E2 was created from all three.
“Each version plays a role, and together, they fuel the passion behind this brand.”Emmanuel Etoo
Every Sip Supports a Fresh Start.
Artisanal Blends by E2 was built around the belief that a past does not have to determine a future. As the company grows, our goal is to use the brand and its success to support second-chance initiatives, re-entry efforts, and programs that create opportunities for people rebuilding their lives.
