It All Started With A Cup of Coffee...

For us, coffee is more than just an energizing kick.
it's a lifestyle of connection.

The Tannin Tale

Tannin was born from a daily coffee walk between friends & roommates, Joe & Henry. Bonded by our love for coffee, we grew increasingly frustrated by funky-feeling mouths, yellow teeth, and mouth sores.

We set out on a journey to discover how coffee and oral health might thrive together. The result is Tannin - the original post-coffee mouth rinse. But beyond our product is the confidence and connection we hope to inspire through it.
