Big Hats Day in Clovis was not just an event; it was a celebration of community, creativity, and, thanks to Reverent Coffee Company, exceptional coffee. As THE FIVE5NINE wandered through the festivities, adorned with our oversized hats, we discovered a booth that was buzzing with more than just the caffeine. Owned by the dynamic duo Casey and Alyssa Lucas, Reverent Coffee Company stood out as a beacon of warmth and enthusiasm amidst the lively crowd.
First Impressions Are Everything
Meeting Casey and Alyssa was like sipping a perfectly brewed cup of coffee; refreshing, invigorating, and leaving you wanting more. Their customer-focused approach, wealth of knowledge, and undeniable passion for their craft immediately caught our attention. It’s rare to encounter business owners who not only love what they do but also possess a deep respect for every hand that touches their product—from the growers to the consumers.
A Decade in the Making: The Journey of Reverent Coffee
The story of Reverent Coffee is a tale of perseverance, passion, and respect. Born from the dream that took root in 2009 with the purchase of the Cool Bean Cafe, Casey and Alyssa embarked on a decade-long journey filled with research, challenges, and celebrations. Their dedication to honoring the art of coffee making and the communities involved is evident in every cup they serve. “Reverent,” meaning feeling or showing deep and solemn respect, perfectly encapsulates their approach to coffee and life.
A New Chapter Post-COVID
The end of COVID-19 brought unexpected growth for Reverent Coffee, propelling them from a beloved local cafe to a bustling full-time roasting business. Selling the coffee shop to focus on their roasting operations marked a new chapter in their journey, one that continued to honor their roots. Now, with Clouds Rest Coffee carrying their blends, they remain connected to their community while expanding their reach.
