Selecting Our Beans

These mountainous, tropical regions produce many of the world’s most exceptional coffee beans, and we dedicate our time to tracking down the very best for our customers. By visiting these areas frequently, Roasting Plant has built strong relationships with famous estates and independent growers alike. We are working side by side with local farmers to identify the best lots from each new harvest.

Our Master Roaster

Genevieve Kapler, Roasting Plant’s Roast Master, grew up in Bordeaux, finding her passion not in grapes, but coffee beans. Her experience has touched on nearly every aspect of coffee, from agronomy to processing and purchasing, from expert tasting to quality control and beyond.
