Roasted in Love, Smoked in Tradition In the heart of Templeton, Iowa — where the fields stretch wide and the history runs deep — we started something small with a whole lot of heart: a family coffee roasting business fueled by passion, hard work, and a little bit of Iowa spirit. We're a husband-and-wife team who believe that coffee should be more than just a morning ritual — it should be an experience. That’s why we do things a little differently around here. Inspired by the rich heritage of Templeton’s famous whiskey, we freshly smoke coffee beans using reclaimed oak rye barrel wood. The result? A bold, smooth flavor with a whisper of smokiness that tells its own story in every cup. What began as a weekend hobby in our garage has grown into a full-fledged operation — but it’s still just the two of us, hand-selecting every bean, tending to each roast with care, and packing each order with the same pride we had on day one. Whether you’re a whole-bean purist, a grounds grinder, or a quick-sip pod brewer, we’ve got you covered. Our offerings are crafted with love and a dedication to quality that only comes from doing what you love, together. This isn’t just coffee. It’s a taste of our journey, our roots, and the quiet strength of doing things the right way. From our family to your cup — welcome to the Rye Roaster Family!
