Trois-Rivières Le Torré

A Brief History of Le Torré

Le Torré was established in 2013, when “Le Temps d'une Pinte” moved into the former premises of Le Torréfacteur coffee house. Ceasing operations was out of the question for the new owners. With this in mind, Le Torré has distinguished itself by roasting artisanal coffee on site, working hand in hand with local cooperatives. As of 2019, the company only does business with gourmet coffees from cooperatives practicing organic and fair trade cultivation, some of which are Rainforest Alliance certified.

  1465, rue Notre-Dame Centre Trois-Rivières (Québec) G9A 4X4

What you can expect

Micro-lots of beans carefully selected over many years will transport you to new and exciting taste horizons. A variety of roasting profiles are offered to satisfy every palate. Imported coffees are grown organically and responsibly, respecting traditions and the environment. The flavours and characteristics of Le Torré coffees are deeply influenced by their area of origin, such as Colombia, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kenya, Nicaragua and Indonesia.

Preserving Our Heritage

When Alain Rivard, Sébastien Bourassa, Laurent Laganière and Gustavo Nevares noticed that the building that had been home to P.-V Ayotte for over 100 years, as well as Le Torréfacteur coffee house for 15 years, was up for sale, that's all it took. They had definitely found their new home for Le Temps d'une Pinte, but also a desire to preserve the heritage of its predecessors. That's how they came to create Le Torré, to ensure that the place remains synonymous with flavour, culture, and cultural life in Trois-Rivières.

Chicoutime Café Cambio

A Brief History of Café Cambio

Café Cambio, a veritable benchmark in the Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean region for fair trade and ecological practices, 100% coop, was founded in 2005. Since then, it has become an example of a profitable commercial enterprise operating within the parameters of sustainable development. Café Cambio roasts over 15,000 kg of coffee beans a year and has partnerships with a number of local businesses. Everyone who has contributed, for whatever length of time, has left a significant mark on the company since its inception.

  129 Rue St Germain O, Rimouski, Canada

What you can expect

The coffee beans, imported from a dozen countries in South America, Africa, and Indonesia, are roasted by hand to extract as much flavour as possible. The majority of roasts are medium-black, but you'll also find some black, brown, cherry and honey roasts. Whatever your choice, you'll find specialty coffees certified fair trade by Fairtrade, organic by Québec Vrai, and verified by Aliments du Québec.

Image du propriétaire de café Larue

Inspiring journeys

The idea for Café Cambio was conceived when childhood friends Guylaine Pelletier and Geneviève Demers were completing their university studies in cinema and anthropology. However, it was after several trips to the South that an awareness of the disparities between North and South inspired them to get involved. It only took coffee producers a few visits to crystallize this desire for social change, and for Café Cambio to see the light of day.

What You Can Expect

To ensure quality and limit its ecological footprint, Chapeau Moustache produces each of its varieties according to demand, to ensure the freshness of its blends and avoid waste.

From Reading to Coffee

The catalyst for the Chapeau Moustache adventure was founder Evan Couture's acquisition of a book on roasting. The magic happened in the back of Le Crêpe Chignon restaurant, with a two-kilo roaster. Thanks to the support of the restaurant's owners, Evan's dream became a reality. The rest is history.

After learning about the world of coffee as a barista and then as a coffee event operator, Marc-Antoine became the owner of Cafés Hubert Saint-Jean.
