Each bag is hand stamped, filled with FRESHLY roasted coffee, and handled with care! We pride ourselves in curating a coffee experience that reaches from connoisseurs to good ole fashioned coffee drinkers!

Tracy & Darrell

Montana Coffee Traders, in Whitefish, set the scene for the birth of KeenBean.

Darrell cut his teeth on fluid-bed roasting there, while Tracy came to town with fresh ideas about what coffee should be.

After the typical, if not expected, “up-and-downs” of a budding romance, including Tracy’s departure to Botswana for the Peace Corps, and Darrell’s subsequent pursuit of her, all the way to the altar, a love like no other sparked the notion of moving back to the family farm, and bringing the love of good coffee to the Ozarks.

“What a long strange trip it’s been” … now, HERE WE ARE! 4 great kids and 18 years later, we are proud to continue the pursuit of our dreams … and welcome you along for the ride!
