Flag & Wire Coffee was established in the summer of 2015 in McMinnville, Oregon, following a rebrand of Chrysalis Coffeehouse and Mud River Coffee Roasting. The roastery employs air roasting technology for small batch production, a method that differs from conventional drum roasters and is calibrated to produce lightly roasted beans that accentuate the full character of each coffee. The cafe at 755 NE Alpine Avenue serves as both a retail space and the hub of a wholesale program that supplies partners across Oregon.
