Dinzler

Our Dinzler products

Dinzler blends are among the most sought-after and popular in Germany. This traditional roasting company in southern Bavaria was founded in 1950 and, from the outset, has attached great importance to the quality and variety of its products. Coffee is produced here to very high standards. Only the best raw beans are used, then processed through a long and gentle roasting process using a rotary drum roaster. At Dinzler, coffee is more than just a concept. It has always aroused a passion that has not yet died out.

Whether in the coffee itself, its presentation, or the overall concept, Dinzler stands for high-quality products and perfection.

But let’s go back in time…

dinzler-cup It’s the late 1940s. Germany is beginning its economic and cultural rise. A new beverage is about to take over the country: coffee.

Although coffee beans had been used in Germany and Europe for several centuries, the art of roasting was only perfected with the onset of industrialization.

The Dinzler roasting company was one of the first German roasters to import raw coffee in large quantities, making coffee accessible to everyone. Previously, roasted coffee beans were a luxury item reserved for the wealthy.

In 1950, the company’s founder, Otto Dinzler, began roasting beans using a drum roaster and selling them to neighbors and friends in his community. The feedback was so positive that Mr. Dinzler decided to expand his passion in his hometown of Bischofswiesen, where he opened a dedicated roasting facility.

In 1962, his son Klaus took over, and in 1966, he officially transformed his father’s business into the first coffee roastery in southern Bavaria – Dinzler Kaffeerösterei.

However, he was determined to take the company to an even higher level. Only the finest raw beans were to be considered for the various blends, and the entire roasting process was to be perfected. The idea paid off, and Dinzler became one of the first roasting companies in southern Germany to initiate partnerships with catering companies such as WMF and Franke.

Over the years, Klaus Dinzler met representative Franz Richter, and together they developed new varieties and coffee lines. This collaboration led to the creation of one of the first blends roasted in Germany, as well as the Dinzler classic: "il Gustoso."

The Richter family eventually took over the business in 1997. The core structure and philosophy remained the same, with only a few reconstructions and relocations. Finally, a new roasting facility and headquarters were built in Irschenberg. Additionally, the new "Otto" building was added in 2018, named after the founder of the Dinzler coffee roastery, and regularly hosts culinary and cultural events.
