About the Battle of the Alamo
For you non-history buffs out there, you might not understand why we decided to name our roastery “Alamo Coffee Company.” That means it’s time for a little lesson in U.S. History.
The Battle of the Alamo lasted for 13 days at the fort in modern-day San Antonio. Texan soldiers took over the mission in December 1835, but between February 23, 1836, and March 6, 1836, the Mexican army laid siege to the Alamo.
Though the 200 Texan defenders were vastly outnumbered by the Mexican forces, they did not surrender or go down without a fight. And while Texas lost the Alamo and all of its soldiers during that battle, the Alamo became a symbol of bravery, heroism, and strength for Texans to continue fighting for their independence from Mexico.
Today, it remains a symbol of Texas grit, hard work, and determination to fight against oppression and defend one’s independence. As a veteran-run company, we are inspired by our Texas history of fighting for what we want and believe in. That’s why we’re Alamo Coffee Company, and we’ll always be dedicated to the honesty, integrity, hard work, and grit that the Battle of the Alamo represents.

Choose from Five Alamo-Inspired Blends
At Alamo Coffee Company, our mission is to ensure that every bag of roasted gourmet coffee is just as fresh and flavorful as the last. We offer five different roasts to accommodate all types of coffee drinkers, whether you enjoy a light, mellow flavor or a strong, full-bodied blend.
San Jacinto: Light Roast
Similar to the one-sided victory of the battle of San Jacinto, Alamo Coffee Company’s light roast coffee beats out its competition by a long shot. The flavor of toasted grains makes for a well-rounded cup and easy sipping.
Brazos: Breakfast Blend
Inspired by the birthplace of Texas, Alamo Coffee’s breakfast blend is one that will give you new life and the determination you need to tackle each and every day. Its full-bodied flavor is just the giddy-up you need to start your day.
San Antonio Mission: Medium Roast
There’s no shame in jumping on the bandwagon of Alamo Coffee’s most popular gourmet coffee roast. The smooth, sweet, balanced flavor echos the abundance of natural resources that San Antonio offered early Spanish colonies.
Gonzales Garrison: Bold Dark Roast
Inspired by the Battle of Gonzales and the famous phrase, “Come and take it!” the Alamo Coffee dark roast coffee delivers the grit you need to overcome any obstacle before you. After all, nothing worth having comes without a fight.
Victory or Death: Espresso
The inspiration for Alamo Coffee Company’s three-bean blend of espresso roast coffee is a reminder to never give up on what you’re fighting for. We believe that the full-bodied, chocolatey, and earthy flavors of this roast are the embodiment of such willpower.
