Wells Coffee Co. is a Fort Lauderdale-based specialty roaster founded by Brandon and Nicole Wells, a husband-and-wife team who transitioned from home roasting to commercial production following a successful 2013 Kickstarter campaign. The company emphasizes the ritualistic nature of coffee, viewing it as a medium for connection and conversation rather than just a daily beverage. With a focus on meticulous small-batch roasting, they offer a curated selection of single-origin beans and handcrafted blends, supported by the expertise of a certified Q-Grader. Their market position is defined by a commitment to artisan quality and a deep-rooted connection to their local community in Flagler Village.

External customer, cafe, marketplace, and class ratings are not comparable measures of the quality of an individual coffee. We do not convert them into original tasting scores or brand-wide star ratings. Our independent reviews are published separately after a coffee has actually been brewed and evaluated.

Sources used in this deep dive
Research disclosure — this profile was compiled from public online sources on 2026-10-03. This company overview is not a tasting review. Original tasting reviews are labeled separately when they exist. Ownership, roasting and sourcing details are attributed to documented sources. I could not verify any specific, documented philanthropy programs for Wells Coffee Co. (Fort Lauderdale), as search results for charitable initiatives like 'Turning Coffee Into Water' belong to a separate entity called 'The Well Coffee Roasters' based in Nashville.
