What You Can Do on The Green Coffee Bean Company Website
Updated
The Green Coffee Bean Company (tgcbc.com) is an Alaska-owned coffee roasting company based in Ketchikan, and its website serves three main purposes: introducing its in-person cafe, selling coffee and tea online with shipping, and showcasing its most popular blends. If you're looking to buy roasted coffee or tea, browse signature blends, or find the physical cafe in Ketchikan, the site covers all three.
Main Sections of the Site
The homepage is organized around a few clear entry points:
| Section | What It Offers |
|---|---|
| Cafe | Information about the company's cozy cafe in Ketchikan, where you can grab a cup of your favorite brew |
| Buy Coffee | Coffees sourced from around the world, shipped directly to your door |
| Buy Tea | Teas from around the world, provided through The Green Tea Leaf Company |
| Our Most Popular Coffee Blends | A showcase of featured and popular blends |
Browsing and Buying Coffee
The Buy Coffee section is where online ordering happens. The company describes itself as roasting gourmet coffees from around the globe, and the site states that you can order online and have your order shipped to you.
The homepage highlights several blends and featured coffees:
- Killer Whale Coffee — listed among the most popular blends
- Snappy Rockfish — listed among the most popular blends
- Cape Chacon Coffee — a featured coffee
- Big Buck — a featured coffee
- Colombia – Excelso — a featured coffee
- Sumatra – Takengon — a featured coffee
The featured coffee links open in a new tab, so you can browse them without losing your place on the homepage.
Buying Tea
The Buy Tea section connects to The Green Tea Leaf Company, which the site describes as providing the finest teas from around the world. If tea is what you're after rather than coffee, this is the section to use.
Visiting the Cafe
The Cafe section covers the in-person side of the business. The company describes it as a cozy cafe in Ketchikan where you can grab a cup of your favorite brew. The site's description also mentions fresh cookies and hot coffee, so it functions as both a coffee shop and a place to pick up a snack.
Gift Cards
The site offers a $25 Gift Card. According to the page, gift cards are:
- Valid for in-store purchases only (not online)
- Available by visiting the cafe in Ketchikan or by emailing [email protected]
- Able to be mailed to you, or picked up in person
Note the in-store-only limitation if you were hoping to use a gift card for an online order — the site explicitly excludes online use.
Staying in Touch
The homepage includes an email newsletter signup with fields for email address and name (both marked as required). Subscribing is the way to get updates from the company directly.
