ELEVATE SPECIALTY COFFEE IN YOUR COMMUNITY
Our Coffee
We work incredibly hard to put out coffees that are worth talking about, worth drinking, and support farmers, local organizations, and the Kentuckiana community. Each coffee is sampled, roasted, cupped, and graded by us to meet our high standards. We roast lightly, and even our medium roasts would be light roasts to others. We do this to highlight the origin of the bean, rather than roasting away all of the flavors and complexities of a coffee.
Our mission
Our mission for wholesale is to provide a level for coffee that is scarcely seen in Louisville and Southern, IN. Our goal is to offer a wider variety of specialty coffees that are exciting, adventurous, and promote fair trade for farmers and support the local community.
Private Label
On top of bulk wholesale, we offer retail bags for the shelves of your coffee shop, church, boutique, etc. We can also provide private label bags, meaning it's our coffee, but your brand on the bag. This can promote brand awareness and blend in beautifully to any retail store or coffee shop. Fill out our form below to get started!
Consultations
Wanting to upgrade your coffee? It take more than a good bean. Let us evaluate your shop and offer advice on how to take your coffee to the next level. With over 6 years of experience as a barista and roaster, I know it's easy to become stagnant in knowledge, and to serve coffee that just "gets you by." Let's go above and beyond the bare minimum!
Our Organizations
Besides offering the best coffee in Louisville, it can't stop there. Coffee is wonderful, but it's not making enough change on its own. That's why our coffee is a vehicle for good, and you can be the driver! When you partner with us, every single 5lb bag or 12oz bag, or even 6oz sample donates. In Louisville, every bag donates to oak-life.org and orphancarealliance.org which is a local organization for foster care and orphan care in southern IN and Louisville.

WHY NOT JUST ORDER THROUGH THE WEBSITE?
OUR WEBSITE IS DESIGNED PRIMARILY FOR FIRST TIME LOOKERS - TO GET OUR BEST PRICES, FILL OUT OUR WHOLESALE FORM AND CHAT WITH US TO GET THE BEST COFFEE FOR YOU!
MY BUSINESS IS SMALL, I DON'T NEED A BIG COFFEE CONTRACT
DON'T WORRY! WE LOVE TO PARTNER WITH SMALL BUSINESS, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE ARE ONE! UNLIKE MOST COFFEE ROASTERS, THERE IS NO MINIMUM ORDER. ORDER 6OZ OR A HUNDRED POUNDS A MONTH, IT'S UP TO YOU
WHAT DOES YOUR CONTRACT LOOK LIKE?
WE DON'T LIKE CONTRACTS. RATHER THAN STARTING OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH DISTRUST, FEES, AND STRINGS ATTACHED, WE WOULD RATHER JUST GIVE YOU REALLY GOOD COFFEE IN EXCHANGE FOR MONEY. IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT YOU GET OR YOU WANT TO TRY SOMEONE ELSE, WE WON'T STOP YOU 😉
HOW DO DONATIONS WORK WITH WHOLESALE?
EVERY SINGLE BAG DONATES TO AT LEAST ONE CHARITY. PERIOD. WHETHER IT'S THROUGH OUR WEBSITE, IN PERSON, OR IN YOUR CHURCH, COFFEE SHOP, OR OFFICE. YOU ARE ACTIVELY DONATING, AND ARE APART OF FUNDING THE NEXT GENERATION OF CHILDREN. WE CURRENTLY DONATE TO OAK-LIFE.ORG, ELEVATEINDY.ORG, AND ORPHANCAREALLIANCE.ORG. LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR MISSIONS ON THE ABOUT PAGE.
DO YOU OFFER CONSULTING FOR COFFEE SHOPS?
YES - IF YOU'D LIKE ME TO COME IN AND EVALUATE YOUR SHOP, I'D BE HAPPY TO DO THAT. ONE OF OUR GOALS IS TO UPGRADE THE KENTUCKIANA COFFEE SCENE, AND THAT REQUIRES US TO TAKE A STEP BACK AND EXAMINE WORK FLOW, EQUIPMENT, BARISTA PERFORMANCE, COFFEE BEANS, WATER, AND MUCH MORE. WITH MANY VARIABLES IT'S HARD TO PINPOINT A WEAK LINK OR AN ISSUE. LET'S DIVE IN TOGETHER AND BETTER OUR LOCAL COFFEE!
HOW EXPENSIVE IS YOUR COFFEE?
WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO SWINDLE LOCAL BUSINESS OR GOUGE ANYONES WALLETS. OUR PRICES REFLECT THE COST OF OUR BEANS, SUSTAINABLE WAGES FOR FARMERS, DONATIONS TO LOCAL CHARITIES, AND OUR HARD WORK OF CREATING SMALL BATCH ARTISANAL COFFEE. THAT SAID, OUR PRICES ARE COMPETITIVE AND WITH A WHOLESALE ACCOUNT YOU'RE LOOKING AT NEARLY A 20% DISCOUNTED RATE FROM OUR SITE PRICES.
