Niles Deneen of Deneen Pottery joins the 144th episode of the podcast this week. Deneen is a second-generation pottery business that got its start in the 1970s from Niles's father. From meager beginnings of making a handful of mugs with only four glaze colors, the small business has blossomed into producing over 600,000 mugs a year. These mugs are all hand-thrown, fired in a kiln and glazed in Deneen's facility, which is doing its part to reduce its carbon footprint and create incredible art at the same time. Death Wish Coffee has been working with Deneen Pottery since almost the beginning, and Niles talks about his unique relationship, the pottery industry, and just how these beautiful mugs are made.
