Coffee That Illuminates the Senses
At River Moon Coffee, we believe that a great cup of coffee is more than a beverage—it's a ritual. Every sip is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and appreciate life's simple moments. Through artisan roasting, responsibly sourced beans, and a passion for craftsmanship, we create coffees that inspire connection, creativity, and everyday enjoyment.
Our Story
River Moon Coffee was founded in 2011 by Geoff Schodde, his partner, and their three children with a shared vision of creating exceptional, small-batch coffee rooted in passion and purpose. Inspired by the beauty of the St. Croix River in Minnesota, the family built a boutique roastery dedicated to quality, artistry, and the belief that coffee can be both an experience and a daily ritual.
For Geoff, coffee roasting shares much in common with music. As a lifelong musician and member of The Rathbones, he understands that great art requires patience, precision, and attention to detail. Those same principles guide every batch of coffee roasted at River Moon.
Crafted with Passion
We source high-altitude, shade-grown coffee beans from trusted farms around the world and roast them in small batches to highlight the unique character of every origin. Our carefully developed blends are designed to deliver balance, depth, and memorable flavor experiences.
Our signature coffees include:
- Gaia – Balanced and grounding with notes of caramel and toasted nuts.
- Hemera – Bright and expressive with citrus and honeyed sweetness.
- Epona – Full-bodied with rich malt, pecan, and chocolate notes.
- Aega – A bold French roast for lovers of deep, intense flavors.
- Kona Waves – Smooth and mellow with soft caramel complexity.
- Fade to Black – Our darkest, richest roast with bittersweet chocolate and low acidity.
Our Philosophy
At River Moon Coffee, we believe that coffee is a daily act of mindfulness.
A morning brew can be a reset, a pause, or a moment of inspiration. That's why we approach every roast with intention, creating coffees that encourage people to slow down and savor the experience.
Ritual without mastery is hollow. Mastery without meaning is mechanical. We seek both.
