Madcap Coffee Company
Grand Rapids roaster that put Midwest specialty coffee on the national map.
Founded in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 2008 by Trevor Corlett and Ryan Knapp, Madcap Coffee Company helped establish the Midwest as a serious specialty-coffee region. Known for clean, sweet, carefully sourced single origins and a polished retail experience, Madcap earned national recognition and competition success while remaining rooted in Michigan. Its growth demonstrated that destination-quality roasting and hospitality could thrive well outside the coastal coffee capitals.
Origins they source from
Colombia
Huila
Colombia's most awarded department — sweet, complex washed coffees with caramel, red fruit, and bright acidity.
Ethiopia
Guji
A relatively young star origin known for clean, intensely floral and stone-fruit-driven micro-lots.
