Our Story

 

Espresso shot into cup

Rise Roasters blossomed from a profound love for the intricate art of home roasting, grinding, brewing, and crafting coffees sourced from diverse corners of the globe. Through years of dedication and experimentation, Jonathan and Meagan honed their skills in sourcing premium specialty coffees, perfecting small-batch roasting techniques, and creating distinctive blends bursting with flavor.

Their journey began with intimate gatherings among friends and family, where they shared their aromatic creations, sparking conversations and fostering lasting connections over steaming cups of freshly brewed coffee. Their commitment to warmth and community extended to their local church, where the fragrance of freshly roasted coffee became a cherished part of Sunday gatherings.

Encouraged by friends captivated by their coffee magic, Rise Roasters emerged as a beacon of quality and community. For Jonathan, pursuing theological studies at The Expositor's Seminary found unexpected harmony with their coffee venture. Today, Rise Roasters not only sustains Jonathan during his seminary journey but also embodies their shared values of generosity and support for future church leaders.

In a heartfelt gesture, a portion of every sale of their Shepherd's Blend coffee is dedicated to The Expositor's Seminary scholarship fund, underscoring their commitment to both exceptional coffee and the nurturing of future Shepherds.

If your heart resonates with the rich aroma of coffee and the fortification of the local church, we warmly invite you to join us on our journey. Connect with Rise Roasters on Facebook or Instagram, and let us brew a cup of coffee that's not just delicious but also infused with the spirit of camaraderie and connection.
