This tale starts in 2005 through a chance encounter between Victor “The eccentric Coffee bean farmer” and Michael “The coffee Prophet”,
Victor, found himself a political refugee from Trinidad on the run from from his homeland. His crime? He discovered and patented the subterranean method of using steam to grow coffee beans in Trinidad and Tobago. Because of this the Agricultural Commissioner devised a plan to confiscate Victor’s farmland and then developed a plot to steal his farming technique. After they could not get the formula they kidnapped his two small boys, bankrupted his family and arrested his brother,
Victor, made a daring rescue and escaped with his formula to south Florida along with his beautiful wife Ann and their two sons. He moved to Port Saint Lucie Florida, where he joined a small local church and began a job in the construction industry. He and Ann later welcomed their third son Nate. This is where the Steamworks subterranean farming technique stayed hidden until 2019.
During Victor’s time at the Local church in Port Saint Lucie, Florida, His boys now in youth group, he began to serve in the church so he could spend more time with his family. After a few years, Victor noticed that Michael, the Pastor’s son, had keen sense of smell and a knack for making the most creative coffee blends he has ever tasted. This keen sense of taste and smell went beyond the natural, it was almost as if it were a supernatural gift. Michael had the unique ability to make his coffee creations for people without people even telling him what they wanted.
It wasn’t long before the church attenders would just come up to the church coffee bar and Michael would greet them, and then he would prepare a special, unique cup of coffee for that individual person without them even placing an order. Pretty soon he became known as “The Coffee Prophet”. Word spread throughout the community about the Coffee Prophet, and people began to come see this Prophet from all over Florida, then the entire Nation. By 2012 Coffee Pilgrimages had been started from some of the most famous places in the world known for their coffee. Coffee growers from Mountains of Jamaica, Growers from the Hills of Columbia, Ethiopia, Hawaii, and Tanzania just started showing up at this community Church on the Treasure Coast to see what the Coffee Prophet would make for them.
Victor was so impressed with the Coffee Prophet that he just knew if he combined his subterranean Steamworks technique with the almost supernatural ability of The Coffee Prophet, then the greatest cup of coffee could indeed be brewed and made available to coffee lovers all of the world. Victor’s only problem, he was a wanted man for crippling the coffee industry in The republic of Trinidad.
Years passed by, then one-day Victor woke up on an unusually chilly day in February 2019. He was not expecting the good news that he was about to receive, but this would be the day that changed his life forever. Around 11:00 am his cell phone rang, “Hello, this is Victor, can I help you?” “Hey Vic, it’s me, your brother. Vic I’m free, I was released from prison this morning.” We finally exposed the Agricultural Commissioner for his crimes. The Government is issuing you and your family a full pardon and they are giving us the farms back with restitution” “Vic you can come home” Victor was in disbelief but he knew that he could not go home, not with the Coffee Prophet here in Port Saint Lucie.
Victor “The Steamworks Coffee Bean Farmer” and Michael “The Coffee Prophet” along with JT managing production, formed Steamworks Coffee Bar LLC and opened their first Coffee Bar in Port Saint Lucie, Florida, serving Beans from their unique subterranean Steamworks process, grown in Trinidad, Brazil, Jamaica, Hawaii, and Columbia.
