About Us

 

Slow roasted in small batches

Slow roasted coffee just hits different. Our unique roasting process produces exceptionally smooth coffee with deep, sustained flavor and an intoxicating aroma that will have you counting down the minutes until your next cup.  Never burnt, never bitter, always on point.

Small batch roasting allows us to maintain a greater amount of control over the roast, which in turn allows us to draw out all of the coffee's best characteristics.  Each batch receives a high level of attention to detail, ensuring a consistent cup of coffee with an authentic taste and texture you will only find with Seaworthy Coffee.

A Seaworthy Story

Our story begins 17 years ago, when owner/roaster, Jenna walked on to the Women’s Rowing Team at The University of Rhode Island.  Each morning the team would rise before the crack of dawn, head down to the boathouse and row for hours, leading her down a path that would keep her close to the water both literally and figuratively for years to come.

Later, between crew coaching jobs in RI and after working as an operations manager at the shipping ports in Jersey, Jenna found her other passion in life- coffee. Working as a barista and then eventually as a roaster, she was hooked once she was hit by the aroma of that first batch.  It wasn't long before Jenna and her wife Lauren knew they had to take the plunge and open a coffee roasting company.  It was through trial and error (and a lot of homework) that Jenna continued on to develop our unique slow roasting process all while Lauren designed Seaworthy's logo by hand and worked hard to develop our brand.

Success on the water reflects hard work, preparation, attention to detail, consistency, and passion.  Our brand reflects a deep respect for these lessons learned and what it means to be "Seaworthy".
