Lilac Coffee: Where Passion Meets the Perfect Pour

Some of the best businesses start with the simplest moments. For Josiah, founder of Lilac Coffee, it started in a college dorm room, grinding coffee by hand and crafting pour overs from scratch. That small ritual sparked a love for coffee that he's never let go of.


Now, that same passion is baked into every cup at Lilac. Whether you're reaching for a seasonal specialty or a classic Colorado roast, Josiah's mission is straightforward: make sure the coffee always tastes great. As a specialty coffee shop with deep expertise in all things coffee, Lilac is built for every kind of coffee lover, whatever you enjoy, they've got you covered.


But Josiah's vision for Lilac goes beyond what's in the cup. As a former corporate employee, he knows firsthand how much good coffee matters when you're grinding through a workday. "As a former corporate employee, I think it's super important to have good coffee as you work through your day," he shared.


That same care extends to how he runs his team. "I believe in any business, employees are your number one asset. Really managing people is a huge passion of mine," Josiah said, and it shows in the culture he's built at Lilac.
