Welcome to Rubicon Coffee Roasters
Nestled in the heart of Paonia, Colorado, Rubicon Coffee Roasters is a small‑batch, artisan roastery dedicated to bringing you the purest expression of origin‑driven coffee. From our vintage brick storefront on Grand Avenue, we hand‑select green beans from sustainable, direct‑trade farms around the globe—seeking varietals that thrive at high elevations and mirror the clarity of our mountain air.

In every roast, you’ll taste our commitment to craft and community. We roast to order in micro‑batches, coaxing out each bean’s unique character—from bright, citrusy notes to rich, chocolaty depths. Whether you’re savoring an early‑morning light roast in our café, grabbing a bag to brew at home, or pairing a medium‑roast espresso with locally made pastries, you’re experiencing coffee as it was meant to be: fresh, transparent, and rooted in a sense of place.

At Rubicon, we believe great coffee does more than wake you up—it connects us. Stop by for a pour‑over, join us at a cupping table, or simply say hello; we’re proud to be Paonia’s neighborhood roaster and look forward to sharing a cup with you.
