About

Coffee, Travel, Cooking & Collecting, have been a big part of my adult life. These are all things I’m passionate about, but have never put these passions together to form a business until now. It is important to me that we do something good with Roost Roastery and any success we may have in sharing our passions. Roost Roastery is going to be a journey that takes our customers into our lives and the lives of those that we will help along the way.

The Roost Roastery journey started in Chicago during the pandemic to support a friend in need during a difficult time. Our initial blend was our ROOST BOOST coffee and it was an immediate success in several Chicago restaurants, cafes and a theatre. We’re happy to report that our efforts help raise over $10,000 and our friend is in remission and back to work, creating again!

In 2024, family brought us to Matthews, NC, so we relaunched Roost Roastery to share our small batch coffee roasting operation. We installed our new Bellwether V3 Roaster in March 2025 to bring the lowest carbon coffee to the Charlotte Metro area. We believe strongly that freshly roasted coffee is an affordable luxury that can be brewed inexpensively from home.

Join us in fighting coffee poverty when you purchase our coffee. We donate $0.20 for every pound of green coffee we purchase through Bellweather’s coffee farming relationships. We also partner to raise money for important causes though our newest blend “ROOST to the RESCUE”, launching before the end of 2025.
