CEO, Slow Pour Supply

Anita Tam, originally from Hong Kong and trained as a classical musician, discovered her passion for coffee through a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and attention to detail. With a family background in logistics and ceramic production, she founded Slow Pour Supply, a company renowned for its commitment to quality, craftsmanship, and innovation. Slow Pour Supply distributes prestigious brands such as Origami Japan, April, Sibarist, WPM, and 2-WayCup, while continually curating a selection of premium coffee equipment.
