How much do you love coffee? If you do, you're going to thoroughly enjoy this conversation that Steven Dalton had about his story and his absolute love affair with coffee. Steven has loved coffee since his first cafe mocha when he was 12 years old. 

Through high school and college, he worked for a nationwide coffee company and dreamed of his own coffee shop "one day."  After college, Steven pursued his other passions in public safety and education, but opening his own coffee shop was always on his mind for "one day." 

Having taught through the COVID-19 pandemic and the "return to learn" period, Steven's eyes were opened to how much division and brokenness was left behind.  Driven by his personal faith, Steven felt a calling on his heart to create a shared experience around something he knew people from all walks of life loved- coffee!  In early 2021, he purchased his first at-home coffee roaster and began to play with different blends and roasting methods with the love and support of his wife, Melissa. 

By the summer of 2021, Steven and Melissa were joined by their friend and fellow church member, Tim Bynum, to launch the coffee company we now know as "Reviresco Coffee Co."   Company Story:  

"Reviresco" is a Latin word for the concept of "flourishing again."   

This name was chosen because it embodied their vision as a coffee company. The origins of Reviresco Coffee Co. are rooted in a chaotic time in modern history- the COVID-19 pandemic and social unrest of 2020. Steven and his team saw how these events divided, separated, and harmed so many around us, and we wanted to do something good in response. 

Roasting and sharing delicious coffee blends with family and friends was our humble attempt to grow something good out of these hard times.  What began as a hobby in early 2021 flourished into a small cafe roastery located at 710 Lafayette Street, where co-founders Steven, Melissa, and Tim are joined by a small team of dedicated baristas focused on providing a loving, inviting space for all of our family, friends, and neighbors to gather around delicious small-batch coffee blends freshly roasted on site.
