Los Angeles roastery named for a mountaintop, in Williamsburg since 2025.
Joonmo Kim and Jacob Park met while working at a coffee shop and opened Maru in Los Feliz in 2016. Kim says the Korean name, San Ma Ru, means mountaintop and reflects that good beans grow at high elevation. Park is a certified Q Grader. The coffee is roasted at their Glassell Park roastery in Los Angeles, including the house espresso blend Santo, which combines Colombian and Guatemalan coffees.
The brand opened its Williamsburg shop in New York in September 2025.
