​​​​Who will you hear from?

​Phil Robertson, Co-founder, Phil and Sebastian Coffee Roasters and UCalgary Alum, BSc’00 
UCalgary Alumni, founders Phil Robertson (BSc’00) and Sebastian Sztabzyb (BSc’00) met in a University of Calgary class in 1996 and soon began a single-minded pursuit of a better cup of coffee. For the past decade they've spent most of their waking hours dedicated to the notion that coffee can and should be better than it is. Phil & Sebastian have travelled the world, pioneered the use of refrigerated shipping containers, co-authored graduate level studies on water, and performed countless other harebrained feats in the service of their coffee obsession. All in the hopes that the cup of coffee we pour today, will be just the tiniest bit better than the one we served yesterday.
