March 2025 Overview

Convention season is definitely upon us and things have been wild! March brought with us 2 cons that we went to and another at the start of April which were all awesome! It has felt great getting on the road and meeting so many new adventurers that we can share our mythical roasts with! We have a lot more going on behind the scenes so lets get into what we have cooking up!
Nourishing Hope Campaign
This month we partnered with Fred Hutch Cancer Center to help with the Nourishing Hope 2025 campaign. This event took place on March 21 and featured 7 different streamers who came together to play whatever cooking/food related games they wanted in order to help raise money for the Fred Hutch patient housing food pantry. This ensures that all cancer patients receiving treatment can get the nourishment they need. The event was a resounding success, helping raise over $11,000 and feeding over 73 families! We are so happy to have been a part of this event and look forward to working with them more in the future!
Convention Season Is Here
This month we attended Token Con and Great Plains Game Festival. These were our first times being able to spend time in Oklahoma City as well as Lincoln, Nebraska and I have to say that gamers out in both cities were so great! Gaming cons are such a magical time and like nothing else out there. Every single time we get to experience a gaming convention it is such an unforgettable time! We have more events being added to our schedule all the time so make sure you keep an eye out on our events page to stay in the loop.
New Packaging
Another spicy new updating coming next month is NEW PACKAGING! This is something that has been in the works for many months now and I can't wait to show you what we have. Our new coffee bags will be fully printed and feature full art versions of our iconic classes as well as more roast profile information and blurbs about some of the amazing farms we work with. The packaging should be getting into our warehouse within the next couple of weeks so be on the lookout for an update once that comes out!
Cafe Update
We are still on the hunt for the perfect spot for the new Dragon Roast Coffee tavern and it has definitely turned out to be quite a difficult quest. There have been a few setbacks in the process of trying to get a new location but we are not faltering! The big challenges are trying to find somewhere that can accommodate a roastery as well as a coffee shop AND have room for people to relax and play games. Being in Denver, spaces that can accommodate this are at a premium but we know that we can find the right spot! Another big challenge is that right now the coffee industry is facing a lot of challenges with current political issues going on (you know the ones I am talking about). Because of that, financial institutions are a bit wary of investing into coffee at the moment so we are needing to self fund as much as we can...which is expensive to say the least. Have no fear though, nothing is stopping us and we will have our new Tavern as soon as we can!
A Busy April Ahead
April is here and we have already attended Game On Expo and have TWO more events scheduled for the end of the month. Right now our main focus is on the Kickstarter campaign we have in the works, as its success could definitely propel us forward much faster than we could on our own. When we all band together we can overcome the world of bad coffee and help bring everyone into our guild of caffeinated adventurers! I sincerely love and appreciate every one of you who is on this journey with us and we couldn't do it without you! I'll see you out on the road.
