Farm-direct specialty coffee, roasted fresh daily for cafes and connoisseurs.
Roast & Revel is a full-time specialty coffee roastery and tasting room serving both B2B wholesale and direct-to-consumer markets. We source single-origin green beans directly from farms, roast in small batches on-site, and supply local cafes and restaurants with ultra-fresh coffee through flexible subscription plans. Our welcoming tasting room offers espresso drinks, pour-overs, flights, and educational workshops, turning customers into loyal fans. The $25k+ budget covers lease deposit, a used commercial roaster, initial inventory, espresso equipment, and modest interior build-out. The owner-operates daily, handling roasting, barista duties, sales outreach, and business management. Revenue streams include wholesale bean sales (retail and subscription), in-store drinks and retail bags, equipment, and ticketed events. With third-wave coffee booming, we fill the local gap for a community-focused roastery that prioritizes quality, education, and partnership with cafe clients.
The third-wave coffee movement is at its peak, with consumers demanding transparency, quality, and local experiences—perfect timing for a roastery that combines B2B supply with direct consumer education.
