An Interview with Lowell Gross

We’re excited to share an article written by Denise James of Southern Flavor Magazine featuring an interview with Lowell Grosse, our company founder and President. She shares the backstory of Lowell’s 17-year career in the coffee importing business which inspired him to launch his own coffee roasting business in Charleston, nearly 20 years ago, with the goal of creating craft coffees for at-home aficionados. Grosse and his team import coffees from all over the world with great flavor attributes and grown with sustainable farming practices.

Charleston Coffee Roasters is known for its dedication to one of the Lowcountry’s beloved species: the loggerhead sea turtle. “When we started Charleston Coffee Roasters, we connected with local sea turtle patrol organizations for Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms, as well as the South Carolina Aquarium and their sea turtle rescue hospital,” Grosse says. “We’re the lead Sponsor of the Nutritional Care Program at the South Carolina Aquarium, which supplies more than 200 pounds of food daily for nearly 5,000 resident animals and sea turtles undergoing rehabilitation.” It’s all part of the bigger goal to improve the world through great coffee and serving the needs of the local community here in Charleston.
