Cactus Creek Coffee® was born out of a memorable gathering in July 2004 when a group of retired Special Forces Army buddies shared the delightful taste of Jazzy Java coffee, (which remains one of our cherished and popular flavors to this day). Inspired by our Western roots, with founders hailing from Arizona and Utah, we merged our home heritage with our military experiences during the U.S. Army Special Forces Qualification Course at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where we encountered numerous creek crossings, including the well-known Drowning Creek. Thus, Cactus Creek Coffee® came into existence, blending our passion for coffee, our upbringing, and our military career.
