About Us
Offices & Roasting Facility
LOCALLY ROASTED
About Our Roasterie
The roasting facility serves as our home base. We needed a space that could accommodate our growing operations and warehouse an abundance of relationally sourced coffee, and in 2017 we found the perfect fit: an old manufacturing building full of character and offering over 40,000 square feet in the West End neighborhood, adjacent to Over the Rhine and Cincinnati’s downtown.
Today we are roasting coffee daily on an energy-efficient Loring roaster, fulfilling and shipping orders like a well-oiled machine, performing equipment maintenance, and hosting educational sessions, trainings, and cuppings. Home is where the coffee is.
BAKED IN-HOUSE
About Our Bakery
Great coffee and a delicious pastry go hand in hand. As we opened our first few local coffee bars, we partnered with some exceptional bakeries in Cincinnati to feature their tasty goods. In 2022, the stars aligned and pastry chef par excellence, Megan Ketover, joined the team to build out a bakery within our West End roasting facility.
Now the shops are stocked daily with fresh delightful bites both sweet and savory; seasonal laminated pastries and scones; quick breads, cookies and brownies; gluten free muffins; and the quintessential croissant. The variety and exemplary quality in the bakery case are the perfect complement to the coffees we serve.
