Céleste
Céleste embodies a vision that goes far beyond simply tasting coffee. The name Céleste evokes the sky, the stars, and infinity, symbolizing our constant quest for excellence and authenticity. The logo, the arch, is a reference to the Celestial Gate , a symbolic passage to new taste experiences. This arch represents the entrance into a universe where each cup of coffee is an exploration of the senses, uniting the meticulous work of the producers with our passion for the art of roasting. Céleste is an invitation to cross this door, to discover the world of coffee from a new angle, with depth, elegance and a touch of magic. It is a journey from the earthly to the celestial, where the quality and natural beauty of coffee are in the spotlight.
Behind Celeste: Clémentine Llompart
After 10 years exploring the secrets of coffee all over the world, from France to Canada, via Colombia, Germany and Ireland, I settled in Caen (Normandy), my hometown, to launch my own project: Céleste.
I had the chance to participate in the Cup Tasting World Championships in 2021 after winning the French championships the same year . Today, I am embarking on a new, even bigger challenge: roasting my own coffee and helping to democratize specialty coffee in France (and why not in the world, let's dream big)!
I want to highlight the fact that you can be a mom, a roaster and an entrepreneur ! I am passionate about taste and sensory analysis and I really look forward to sharing all these beautiful coffees with you.
Our values
With Céleste, I want to shine a light on the values that are dear to me: authenticity and a deep respect for the communities that make each cup of coffee possible. This mission is not limited to offering quality coffee, but to sharing our passion for the art of taste and the senses.
We believe in an ethical approach that values not only the quality of coffee, but also the people who grow, prepare and enjoy it. As a female-founded brand, Céleste is actively committed to promoting gender equality and supporting minorities in an industry often marked by inequality.
At Céleste, sharing know-how is essential. We are committed to passing on our knowledge of coffee, from producer to consumer, so that everyone can understand and appreciate what lies behind each sip. Even if we take our values very seriously, we don't take ourselves seriously! Drinking coffee is above all a pleasure, an experience to share with lightness and conviviality.
Our partnerships are based on fair and sustainable relationships, with particular attention to eco-responsible practices and the empowerment of women and marginalized communities. Céleste is not just a coffee brand, it is a movement towards more inclusion and conviviality, where good coffee finds a central place . Enter through the Céleste door and let's drink good coffee together, everywhere, all the time!
