Rubicon Coffee

Bower Coffee’s organic roasts fill the shelves of Rubicon Coffee in Paonia, offering local shoppers and wholesale partners a selection available both in-store and online. Founder Jay Bagley established this roastery after decades of travel through Europe, the Middle East, Central America, and Alaska. His journey led him back to Colorado, where he settled in Paonia near the Northfork of the Gunnison River. Bagley began by home-roasting beans, seeking a perfect cup amidst many mediocre options, and now shares superb roasts sourced from the global coffee belt. The business serves cafes, restaurants, and retail stores across Western Colorado, combining agricultural bounty with artistic energy. Customers appreciate the quality of the organic coffee and the convenience of purchasing bags directly from the shop or ordering for delivery. Rubicon Coffee stands as a testament to Bagley’s long-standing connection to the region, which dates back to his Air Force stationing in Colorado Springs in 1972. The store accepts credit cards, offers wheelchair accessibility, and provides ample parking for visitors stopping by in the valley.
