OUR PHILOSOPHY
PREMIUM COFFEE, PASSIONATE PEOPLE

COFFEE PURCHASING
AT RISE & GRIND COFFEE, WE'RE HERE TO ELEVATE YOUR COFFEE JOURNEY
In 2023, we travelled to Colombia to build direct trade relationships and support local initiatives—most notably helping launch Huila’s first-ever coffee summer camp for kids. In 2024, we expanded our journey to Brazil, further strengthening our connection to producers and deepening our understanding of origin.
An annual origin trip is baked into our business DNA. It’s how we stay grounded in the realities of coffee production and ensure we source with integrity and impact.
We believe quality can’t be added—it must already exist at the farm. Our role is to preserve and elevate it. That’s why every coffee we purchase undergoes rigorous evaluation. Dozens of fresh crop samples from innovative, quality-focused farms cross our cupping table, but only a select few make the cut each harvest. We chase exceptional coffees—and once they’re in our hands, we roast and brew to honour their full potential.
Key Highlights:
- Direct trade relationships built in Colombia & Brazil
- Supporter of Colombia’s first coffee summer camp for children
- Annual origin trips embedded in our sourcing strategy
- Rigorous cupping & quality control for every new harvest
- Only top-performing coffees make it to our menu

COFFEE ROASTING
ROASTING COFFEE IS A DYNAMIC BLEND OF ART & SCIENCE
At Rise & Grind Roastery, our seasoned roasters harness the precision of our Giesen coffee roaster—an industry-leading tool—to meticulously control every chemical and physical reaction.
This commitment enables us to unlock each bean’s natural flavours, transforming vibrant sugars, distinctive acids, and aromatic compounds into an exceptional cup every time.
- Advanced Precision: We rely on state-of-the-art instruments—roast colour meters, density gauges, water content meters, and TDS analysis—to ensure every roast is consistent and of the highest quality.
- Balanced Innovation: Our process seamlessly merges artistic intuition with scientific accuracy, carefully tuning every reaction to accentuate the unique character of each coffee.
- Expert Craftsmanship: Roasting is an evolving craft for us, and we continuously refine our methods to bring out the best in every bean.
