About Us

We’re Aimee and Jack, the founders of Recluse Roasting Project, a small-batch coffee roasting business driven by our commitment to quality and integrity. Our mission is to bring you exceptional coffee while supporting the hands that grow it. Through direct relationships with coffee producers—partners we’ve met on our travels and grown to trust—we ensure they’re compensated at rates two to three times higher than "fair trade." This support empowers farmers to embrace sustainable practices, provide education and food support for their workers, and improve living conditions on their farms.

As we expand our partnerships, we’re working toward a future where every coffee we offer is sourced through direct relationships with producers and importers who share our values. For us, great coffee is about more than taste—it’s about fostering community and supporting meaningful change in the coffee industry.

When we're not roasting, you can find us hiking with our dogs, camping, playing board games, gardening, or exploring nearby cities in search of great food.
