Rainblow Coffee is a queer-owned, LGBTQ+ led, women-owned Colombian specialty coffee brand based in Madison, WI.
We work directly with farming families in Antioquia, Colombia, the same families, eight years running. They grow it, roast it in Medellín, and we bring it to Madison in small batches. Every decision we make moves money through queer hands and back toward the people who grew what’s in your cup. It also happens to be a genuinely delicious cup.
THREE TRUTHS
The Coffee Is Exceptional.
Grown with intention, finished by the families who grew it, and worth getting excited about first thing in the morning. The full story lives in Origin.
Madison Made Us.
Built in Madison, Wisconsin, by and for the LGBTQ+ community that made this brand possible. Madison is where we became who we are.
Queer By Nature. Queer By Design.
LGBTQ+ led, women owned, and structured so every decision supports the community this brand was built for. The structure is the substance.
Rainblow is a circular economy in community.
For centuries, coffee growers have been cut off from the full value of what they grow. The roasting, the pricing, the market, all decided by someone else. In our model, the farming families we work with finish their own product, taste it, and understand exactly what it is worth. Their payment is higher because they understand why.
The people who drink this coffee in Madison can travel to those same hills and stand where it began. The families who grow it have a standing invitation to Madison.
WHAT WE ARE BUILT ON
Built Queer. Runs Queer. Every Decision.
Rainblow is LGBTQ+ led and women-owned structurally. Every hire, every partner, every decision.
LGBTQ+-Owned Businesses Go To The Front.
In our wholesale program, our hiring, and Co-Create by Rainblow. The queer economy is the point.
Exceptional Coffee Is Non-Negotiable.
The families taste what they grow before it ever ships. That’s why it’s this good.
