Autocrat, LLC is a company based in Lincoln, Rhode Island, known for its production of coffee syrups and coffee extracts. The company has a rich history and plays a significant role in the coffee industry, particularly in the New England region of the United States.

History[edit | edit source]

Autocrat was founded in 1895 by Frank O. Field in Providence, Rhode Island. Originally, the company focused on producing premium coffee products. Over the years, Autocrat expanded its product line to include coffee syrups, which became a staple in Rhode Island households.

In the mid-20th century, Autocrat's coffee syrup became synonymous with "coffee milk", a popular beverage in Rhode Island. The syrup is made by mixing coffee extract with sugar and water, creating a sweet, coffee-flavored syrup that is typically mixed with milk.

Products[edit | edit source]

Autocrat is best known for its coffee syrup, which is used to make coffee milk, the official state drink of Rhode Island. The company also produces a variety of coffee extracts and concentrates used in the food and beverage industry.

Under Finlays, Autocrat continues to innovate and develop new products while maintaining its traditional offerings.

Cultural Impact[edit | edit source]
