rook coffee roasters™, based in oakhurst, nj, is a visionary coffee business complete with a retail store, in-house roasting facility, wholesale distribution and online shipping service in one.

established in january 2010, rook coffee roasters™ is the brainchild of entrepreneurs and co-owners holly migliaccio and shawn kingsley, childhood friends who left their big city corporate jobs to follow their shared passion for specialty coffee.

after traveling the globe and doing extensive coffee research in the u.s., particularly in the pacific northwest region, they identified a need for fresh roasted coffee on the east coast. they took it a step further by purchasing a state-of-the-art roaster and quickly mastered the art of roasting themselves, using only the highest quality arabica green coffee beans.

“exceptional product mixed with over-the-top customer service is our philosophy,” says co-owner holly migliaccio. “we grind, brew and serve individual cups of coffee made to order using a unique manual drip pour-over method, while educating our customers in the process.”

the modest sized store is like a euphoric refuge with the aroma of fresh roasted beans delighting the senses in an industrial, yet cozy and rustic setting. customers savor the made-to-order service and relish their “new” discovery of fresh roasted coffee.

beyond the in-store coffee experience, migliaccio and kingsley have launched a wholesale and online shipping side of the business.

“we believe that in a short time people will become savvy coffee drinkers like they’ve become savvy wine drinkers,” says co-owner shawn kingsley. “once they taste truly fresh roasted coffee they’re hooked. they can’t believe they’ve been settling for anything less all these years.”
