Does Black Elm Coffee roast their own beans?

Yes. Black Elm Coffee roasts in Gallatin, TN — not Hendersonville. Hendersonville and Gallatin cafés serve that coffee. We source green coffee from Ethiopia, Colombia, Guatemala, Tanzania, Rwanda, Costa Rica, Peru, and other origins, and sell it as single origins, signature blends, and rotating seasonal lots.

Can I order Black Elm Coffee beans online?

Yes. Shop current bags at https://blackelm.coffee/collections/retail-beans. One Roast Series #14 is sold out; that collection is the retail lineup we ship nationwide.
