Old-World German Norwegian Coffee

I got my first bag a little bit ago and am using the pour-over method! My cup of coffee tastes great after adjusting the amount in the filter. It’s strong and tasty but what I like is that it’s low-acid! The coffee reminds me of my parents brewing coffee everyday! I grew up in Minnesota with Swedish- German roots!

I’m in Florida and I absolutely love your coffee!! I get the whole beans and grind my own. Reminds me of my childhood in Germany. 🇩🇪

Thank you, Jack and Janine, for coming to the Williams Bay Farmers Market and teaching me about your craft! I brought a taste of 17th-century Europe into my kitchen today. ☕✨ This slow, classic roast from Der Hoffskeller brewed at 190° makes for the ultimate smooth morning cup. Exceptional quality!

Just received my first order! I\'m on my 3rd cup!! I grew up drinking delicious German coffee and honestly haven\'t found anything as good here in the states...until now! Excellent coffee!

Great strong yet low acid coffee, the best I’ve had since being stationed in Germany! Highly recommended!

I lived in Germany for three years. I\'ve been looking for a good German Coffee and Der Hoffskeller is the best. I\'ve purchased it several times and will continue to order more as needed. Great Coffee!

We are enjoying our first order! We (both 50% German and he is 50% Norwegian) both LOVE IT!

This Is Your New Hygge Spot ☕ If cozy contentment had an address, it would be Der Hoffskeller. We stopped in for coffee and found something far more special—a beautifully simple, soul-warming experience tucked into the basement of a quintessential Wisconsin red barn. The business model alone is refreshing: a free cup of excellent coffee offered in a cosy space that invites you to slow down, linger, and connect. No rush. No pressure. Just warmth. True to its Norwegian and German roots, Der Hoffskeller feels intentional and grounded. There are multiple inviting seating areas, board games waiting to be played, books to flip through, and layers of memorabilia that reward curiosity. Every corner feels lived-in and loved. You know that feeling—the quiet joy that comes from good coffee, meaningful conversation, and being exactly where you’re supposed to be in that moment? That deep, hygge sense of well-being from simple pleasures? This is the place for that. Der Hoffskeller isn’t just somewhere you grab coffee. It’s somewhere you experience it. Wishing the brothers behind this vision continued success. What they’ve built is something genuinely special—and very much worth the stop.

I bought this coffee as a gift for my elderly father who loves German coffees. It was perfect.

We enjoyed our visit and your signature German Norwegian style blend coffee! I had to purchase several jars for home and Christmas gifts! Thank you for creating such a lovely place to gather! We will be back! ☕️

Enjoyed meeting one of the owners Max. Loved listening and learning what this German coffee roastery Der Hoffskellar is all about. Coffee bold and smooth. Bought some beans. The old barn turned into small coffee cafe takes you back to yesteryear. They do area markets were you can buy their coffee beans in glass jars. Quart or pint. Whole bean or ground. Thank you Der Hoffskellar for making it a special moment my friend and classmate as we reconnect our friendship. ☕️🙌☕️

On Thursday I went to explore a new coffee roaster I had hear about. Coffee roasting the old world way in cast iron, in a barn. Yes in a barn. I was treated by Jack one of the brothers who own the roastery. We talked for quite a while. Over coffee. Yum! I enjoyed learning about the How, Why, What, When, Where, of their adventures of roasting their coffee. They are looking towards the future adventures of teaching others and sharing small batched roasted coffee. Learn more about them and their coffee roasting and buy their yummy coffee. You can also find them at multiple farmers market and the Main Street Market downtown Jackson, WI.

Spontaneous stop on the way home from Mequon…It’s a fabulous new coffee shop on Sherman Rd in Cedarburg, located in a 100+ year old barn! German Norwegian style blend of coffee that’s roasted in a Dutch oven and sold in mason jars whole bean or ground. If you love European style coffee it’s a must stop! Brothers Jack & Max were great hosts, full of knowledge & amazing plans for the future of the business.

My sister Karen and I visited last week and had a great time sampling and talking with Max while his brother was roasting beans the old world way. It smelled amazing in the barn and we loved the coffee! We walked away with a few jars each and will be making additional purchases in the future for sure☕️❤️
