Bean Armory Welcomes Rye Roasters: A Community-Driven Partnership

At Bean Armory, we believe the strongest partnerships are built on shared values—not just shared shelf space.

That’s why we’re proud to welcome Rye Roasters of Templeton, Iowa to the Bean Armory family, bringing their small-batch coffee straight to our local customers here in Guthrie Center.

Like Bean Armory, Rye Roasters is a husband-and-wife operation rooted in passion, hard work, and Iowa values. Their story is one many small businesses know well: starting from the ground up, learning through experience, and committing to quality even when it takes more time and intention.

Their coffee reflects that mindset.

Rye Roasters crafts small-batch coffee roasted with care and smoked in tradition. Using reclaimed oak rye barrel wood sourced from Templeton’s legendary whiskey heritage, their process creates a bold, smooth cup with just a subtle hint of smoke. It’s not meant to overpower—it’s meant to add depth, history, and character.

That respect for process feels familiar to us.

At Bean Armory, we’re drawn to products—and people—who believe craftsmanship still matters. Who understand that quality isn’t rushed. Who take pride in doing things the right way, even when it’s the harder path.

This partnership isn’t about chasing trends. It’s about supporting fellow small businesses, strengthening our local economy, and offering our customers something made with intention and care.

Community-driven businesses thrive when they support one another. When local brands collaborate, everyone benefits—from the makers behind the scenes to the neighbors who enjoy the end result.

We’re excited to share Rye Roasters’ coffee with our community and proud to support a business that mirrors the values we stand for every day.

From their family to your cup.
