Big things are percolating at Wild Gift Coffee in Round Rock.
Wild Gift is a wholesale coffee-roasting company specializing in small batches of highly rated beans. The business started in Round Rock in July. Clancy Rose, the company's co-founder, said Wild Gift mostly distributes to locally owned cafes focused on specialty coffee.
Rose said their product is also available to consumers through the company's website.
Rose said since opening the business is on track to meet its 2014 goal of roasting about 500 pounds of coffee a week. He said for 2015 Wild Gift wants to expand the number of cafes serving its coffee, including a possible shop in Round Rock. He said the next big expansion would be reaching out to surrounding cities, such as Waco, San Antonio, Dallas and Houston.
Rose said he would also like to start offering classes to coffee enthusiasts in subjects such as espresso preparation, milk steaming and latte art.
