Small-Batch by Design

Roasted two bags at a time.

Air-roasted two pounds at a time for a bright, clean cup, every batch is tasted for quality before each bag is numbered and roast-dated by hand.

Meet the Team

Dan, roaster at Royal Specialty Coffee

The Roaster

Dan takes coffee seriously. Himself, somewhat less so. He’s the roaster behind Royal Specialty Coffee, spending an unreasonable amount of time adjusting temperatures, timing batches, taking notes, and drinking the results. All in pursuit of one fairly simple goal: really good coffee.

Whitney, taster at Royal Specialty Coffee

Quality Control

Whitney doesn't roast the coffee. She doesn't source the beans, dial in roast profiles, or really contribute anything useful to the process. What she does do is drink the coffee, offer unsolicited opinions, and enthusiastically support Dan's increasingly elaborate pursuit of the perfect roast.

Argo, mascot at Royal Specialty Coffee

The Mascot

Argo serves as the official mascot of Royal Specialty Coffee, a position he earned through a rigorous selection process consisting mostly of being a very good boy. He contributes little to the roasting process, has no measurable coffee expertise, and remains one of the most important members of the operation.
