Our Story
“British Roots – Brilliant Coffee”
Meet Rick, a former pharmaceutical executive turned passionate coffee roaster. With an extensive background in business operations and safety, he infuses a unique perspective into the FDA-regulated coffee industry. Hailing from the UK, Rick’s journey began with specialty coffee, revealing a love for its intricate flavors unlocked through roasting.
A perpetual student, Rick earns SCA certifications to perfect his craft. At Burwell Beans, he meticulously roasts and hand-sorts beans for superior quality. Beyond coffee, Rick finds harmony in playing the saxophone, reading, and spreading laughter as a practical joker.
Blending his affinity for jazz and unwavering standards from pharma, Rick crafts an inviting roastery experience. Join our community, savoring exceptional coffee and embracing Rick’s lively spirit at Burwell Beans. Cheers to flavor and connection!

“I want you to feel right at home when you join the community at Burwell Beans. My energy, passion, and devotion are infused into every roast, making every coffee moment with us truly special, and I take pride in the exceptional quality and service we offer.”
Rick – Founder, Burwell Beans
The story behind our name and logo
Burwell Beans draws inspiration from the historic English town of Burwell, nestled by a river. The name itself, rooted in Anglo-Saxon origins, signifies a settlement near water, symbolizing renewal and trade prospects.
Reflecting this essence, our logo mirrors the town’s form, encapsulating water droplets and resembling a butterfly—an emblem of rejuvenation. Having resided in Burwell while embarking on a personal fresh start, I found in its name and imagery a profound resonance, epitomizing my own journey of a new beginning.
