About Colectivo Coffee
Founded in 1993 in Milwaukee as Alterra Coffee Roasters by Lincoln Fowler, Ward Fowler, and Paul Miller. The trio met in an old Milwaukee warehouse, bonded over coffee while listening to vinyl, and bought their first vintage Probat roaster. Rebranded to Colectivo Coffee in 2013, named after the funky buses used for public transit across Latin America.
