If you're like me, coffee is a non-negotiable part of every single day.
The internet will have you believing it's either the best thing for you or the worst thing for you, but hey, that's the internet with everything. The truth likely lies somewhere in the middle, but as long as I enjoy drinking my coffee I will continue to do so. And the coffee I'm drinking isn't just any coffee, it's some of the best I've ever had.
Our 4 core Narrow Gate coffees at the store are each unique and tie into a much bigger mission that you may not be aware of. Let's talk about it.
Narrow Gate Coffee is the roasting & retail arm of Narrow Gate (Narrow Gate Lodge).
The Lodge is a place where young men (ages ~18-25) engage in spiritual growth, vocational training, and discipleship.
The coffee helps fund that mission, so when you purchase their beans, you're also investing in lives.
Also, the coffee gets roasted over in Columbia, TN too, so it's a great way to support local people doing very positive things.
Coffee can sometimes be the reason people linger, share stories, and actually connect.
Fireside is Narrow Gate's boldest signature blend, designed to slow you down and invite conversation.
With full-bodied notes of flambéed marshmallow and rich brownie, it's the kind of cup that feels like comfort in your hands.
If you value meaningful mornings, cozy group gatherings, or journaling with intention, this is the kind of coffee that turns routine into ritual.
This coffee blend isn't named for its flavor, it's named for the story it tells.
It represents the meeting of skilled craftsmanship and surrendered hearts, which is at the essence of Narrow Gate's mission. With sweet notes from Peru and nutty depth from Sumatra, it's a versatile blend that works beautifully no matter how you brew it. The Craft & King blend is both a flagship coffee and a declaration for excellence in craft and devotion to Christ.
If you value quality with purpose, this blend delivers a smooth, everyday cup that supports transformation far beyond the coffee mug.
Some coffees are simply drinks to pass time, but others feel like an experience in themselves.
The Papua New Guinea (Kainantu District) roast leans deep and chocolate-forward, layered with earthy sweetness and warm spice Cultivated by the Timuza Cooperative in the volcanic highlands, it reflects both the land and the careful art of its growers. Velvety, complex, and full-bodied, it's the kind of roast that rewards slow brewing and reflective moments.
If you appreciate depth in both flavor and meaning, a cup of this will prove remarkable and perfect for you.
Coffee should be enjoyed on your terms and not dictated by caffeine crashes or stomach burn.
Late Night Decaf brings chocolate and toasted-nut notes in a smooth, low-acid cup that's gentle enough to drink anytime of day. Processed through Swiss/Mountain Water methods, it avoids harsh chemicals while fully removing caffeine, only leaving behind the balanced flavor. It's a decaf that preserves the ritual, the richness, and the comfort, without the jitters or the bite.
If you're sensitive to caffeine, managing reflux, or simply wanting an evening mug without regret, this is a dependable and flavorful choice.
Every single day we're open, there is a sampling of Narrow Gate Coffee warm and ready to try.
We like to tell people that we're not baristas, so if you try the sample and like it black, you'll really love it at home all spiffed up.
All of our coffee from Narrow Gate is available in beans, but we do have a coffee grinder with all the grind settings that you're more than welcome to use!
