Your Coffee Support Team
Taproot Coffee is a first generation family business, grounded in the service of neighbors. Malachi and Alison love helping prospective coffee proprietors navigate the ins and outs of this business! Nothing like a serious coffee challenge to brighten our day.
A Decade of Experience
No strangers to hard work, our commitment to quality extends far beyond “business hours.” Under our belt is thousands of pounds (of beans), hundreds of hours of barista-ing, and too many wholesale service calls to count. Whether it’s a coffee emergency or routine machine maintenance, keeping it down to earth is our specialty.
Coffee With a Purpose
Good coffee can nourish a relationship, connect a city, and support a community. By serving our neighbors, we aim to change the world one heart at a time! The Coffee Bus was opened in 2017 as a way to provide Taproot’s fresh roasted coffee to fellow Hickory locals. We’ve been around the block when it comes to mobile coffee; steaming up hot lattes in the back of the Bus, delivering bags of beans around town, and caffeinating dozens of special occasions all over the south east.
Partners for Life
Specialized Specialty Wholesale Beans, your shop’s bean blend in your dream packaging. Espresso machine restoration, tune ups, and repair. Mobile coffee shop trouble shooting (the hum of that generator killing the vibe?). We aren’t looking for a one-time consultation. We want a to be your partner and support your business into maturity. There will be a long, bumpy road of breakdowns, hangups, and bad decisions. We hope to make that road a little smoother by sharing what we’ve learned with you.
