Never has there been a more perfect business naming scenario than is the case with Namesake Coffee Roastery, owned by Michael and Jessica Beans. It seems like a career in coffee was their fate from the start, but we quickly learned that their passion and talent as coffee roasters goes far beyond the name.
Michael and Jessica welcomed us into their home roastery, where we sat in their kitchen with a fresh Chemex of their insanely good coffee and had one of the most fun conversations we’ve had. listen in on our chat, where we hear all about the origins and heart behind Namesake Coffee, how they met in Egypt of all places, their unique perspective on being a Dayton entrepreneur as Dayton transplants (their answer is so, so great I’m using it in all my interviews now), and why there is maybe no such thing as a pretentious coffee drinker.
