Rosso Coffee Roasters — Calgary's Award-Winning Specialty Coffee

Calgary's Most Awarded Coffee Roaster

Rosso Coffee Roasters isn't just another Calgary coffee brand — it's the one that put Canadian specialty coffee on the map. Established in 2007, Rosso has grown from a single roastery in Inglewood to five cafe locations across Calgary, and their beans are now served in restaurants and homes across Canada. They're the roaster behind the 2023 and 2024 Canadian Barista Champions — meaning the best baristas in the country choose Rosso when it matters most. When you order Rosso from GoToPopupYYC, you're getting the same competition-grade coffee, roasted fresh in Calgary, delivered to your door for free.

From Competition Beans to Your Kitchen

What makes Rosso different is their relentless focus on quality at every stage. They source directly from quality-focused producers around the world — from the highlands of Ethiopia and Colombia to the volcanic soils of Brazil and Indonesia. Every lot is cupped, scored, and roasted in small batches at their Calgary facility to bring out the unique character of each bean. Whether you're reaching for a dependable everyday blend like Homebody or exploring a limited-edition single origin like Upside Down Colombia Chiroso, you're getting coffee that's been crafted by people who take extraction as seriously as you do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Rosso's best-selling coffee?
A: Homebody is one of Rosso's most popular blends — a comforting, chocolatey, nutty coffee with low acidity and full body. It's described as a "warm hug in a cup" and works beautifully as both espresso and filter. Two Wheel is the go-to for espresso lovers, while Daydream is the pick for those who love bright, fruity, light-roast filter coffee.

Q: What's the difference between Rosso blends and single origin?
A: Blends combine beans from multiple origins to create a consistent, balanced flavor profile — great for everyday drinking and espresso. Single origin coffees come from one specific farm or region, showcasing the unique terroir of that place. Rosso's single origins (like Jam Jar from Ethiopia or Pink Lady from Colombia) are seasonal and limited — when they're gone, they're gone.

Q: Is Rosso coffee good for espresso?
A: Absolutely. Two Wheel is specifically roasted for espresso — it's Rosso's house espresso blend, smooth and sweet with milk. Homebody and Hideaway also work beautifully as espresso. For best results, use whole beans and grind fresh.

Q: Does Rosso offer decaf?
A: Yes — Off Hours is Rosso's Swiss Water decaf, which means it's decaffeinated without chemicals. It retains the flavor of a proper specialty coffee — milk chocolate, black tea, sweet raisin — so you won't feel like you're compromising. Available as whole bean and instant sachets.

Q: Can I buy Rosso coffee in bulk?
A: Yes! Homebody and Hideaway are available in 5 lb bags at $129.95 each — the best per-unit price for daily drinkers, offices, and small cafés. That's roughly 60+ cups of coffee per bag.

Q: How fresh is Rosso coffee when it arrives?
A: Rosso roasts in small batches at their Calgary facility. When you order from GoToPopupYYC, you're getting coffee that was roasted within days — not weeks. For peak freshness, use within 4–6 weeks of the roast date and store in an airtight container away from light and heat.
