Our Founder

Our Story

Welcome to Kraken Black Ink Coffee Company, where every cup explores a depth of flavor you’ll love and a commitment to preserving the ocean's beauty. Our founder, Reko Ponton, began his journey with a profound love for the ocean, capturing its essence through his lens.

Reko's passion was ignited by the mesmerizing island life on Grand Cayman. As he delved deeper into the marine world, he became a certified scuba diver and an underwater photographer, sharing the ocean's magic through his work.

Ocean Art by Reko

Reko's unique perspective blends technical skill with an appreciation for marine beauty. Each piece of art is a tribute to the ocean's allure, tailored for homeowners seeking oceanic tranquility. His journey as a diver and photographer fostered a desire to contribute more to ocean conservation.

Kraken Black Ink Coffee Company: A Blend of Passions

Merging his love for coffee with his commitment to the ocean, Reko founded Kraken Black Ink Coffee Company. Our brand is more than just coffee; it's a movement towards preserving and researching our seas.
