WHAT WE FOUND

3 of 36. Never named once.

Three brands in this index were never named once across 1,350 answers: Bear Bones, Two Chimps and Genovese. Between them they hold roughly 30,000 Instagram followers.

3rd most-recommended. Dutch-owned since 2021.

Campos ranks third by AI mentions in this index, named in 171 of 1,350 answers. It's been owned by JDE Peet's, the Netherlands-based coffee conglomerate, since 2021. AI treats it as a local specialty roaster all the same.

Zero on Perplexity. Google recommends it anyway.

Toby's Estate — owned by Japan's UCC since 2022 — was named 35 times across 1,350 answers, 27 of them by Google's AI Overviews. Perplexity never recommended it once.

Combined, AI named them in 314 of 1,350 answers.
