Jeremy Gursey has built a career around a simple passion: making great coffee and creating experiences that bring people together. Since launching J. Gursey Coffee & Tea in 1993, he has become a sought-after coffee entrepreneur, serving Hollywood’s elite, developing distinctive coffee programs for luxury hotels and restaurants, and building a brand rooted in craftsmanship and quality.
His journey has taken him from the sets of Seinfeld—where his interactions with Larry David inspired the character Mocha Joe on Curb Your Enthusiasm—to leading Coffee Manufactory and helping shape the future of specialty coffee.
But Jeremy’s mark goes beyond the perfect cup. It’s about building something meaningful, inspiring the people around him, and leading with purpose. Through his work, he reminds us that true success isn’t just what you create—it’s the people you elevate and the impact you leave behind.
That’s Jeremy Gursey. Making his mark, one cup at a time.
