We've been sitting on this news for a few weeks now, and it feels good to finally share it.
RoastAroma has officially partnered with The Twelver Studios, a local laser engraving shop here in the GTA, and honestly, the collaboration just makes sense. They make beautiful custom engraved coffee mugs. We roast fresh coffee. Put them together and you've got something worth talking about.
Here's the deal: when you order their LED Temperature Display Coffee Mug, it shows up at your door filled with freshly roasted RoastAroma beans. Not a sample packet. Not a coupon code. Actual coffee, ready to grind and brew in your brand new mug. We wanted the first cup you make in it to be a great one.
The mug itself is pretty cool, by the way. There's a little LED screen built into the handle that displays the exact temperature of whatever you're drinking. The double-wall insulation keeps things hot for hours. And because it's stainless steel, you can have it engraved with your name, a logo, a quote, whatever you want really. The Twelver Studios handles all the custom laser engraving in-house, so the quality control is tight.
We first came across their work a few months back when one of our team members ordered a personalized tumbler from them. The detail on the engraving was impressive, not the shallow scratchy kind you see on cheap promotional stuff, but deep and clean. That got us curious about who was behind it.
Turns out The Twelver Studios is a small operation run by people who genuinely care about the craft. They're not dropshipping generic products from overseas. Everything gets engraved locally, and they work directly with customers on custom designs. That kind of approach resonates with us because, well, that's exactly how we run RoastAroma. Small batch. Personal attention. No shortcuts.
The partnership started as a simple idea over a phone call and grew from there. We liked the thought of our coffee being someone's first experience with a new mug they just personalized. There's something nice about that moment, unboxing a custom engraved gift you ordered for yourself or received from someone who knows you well, and finding it already loaded with quality beans.
If you poke around their website, you'll see they do way more than coffee mugs. Their engraved tumblers have been getting a lot of attention lately, especially the 40oz iridescent ones with these intricate Japanese-inspired designs. There's a Samurai Warrior edition, a Crane and Cherry Blossom one, even a JDM-themed tumbler for the car enthusiasts. Each one is laser engraved by hand and honestly looks more like art than drinkware.
They also do a really nice engraved leather wallet that's become one of their bestsellers. It's genuine Napa leather, not the bonded stuff that peels after six months, and they can engrave initials, dates, or short messages on the inside. We've already heard from a few customers who ordered one as a gift paired with a bag of our coffee. Not a bad combo.
For anyone running a business, they offer corporate solutions too. Think custom engraved tumblers with your company logo for client gifts, custom rubber stamps or personalized wallets for men as employee appreciation presents. It's a step above the usual branded merch that ends up in a drawer somewhere.
We don't do a lot of partnerships at RoastAroma. It has to feel right, and it has to make sense for the people buying from us. This one checks both boxes. You get a legitimately useful, well-made, personalized mug from a local craftsman, and you get to break it in with specialty coffee that was roasted days ago, not months.
The offer is running now on their site. Grab the LED Temperature Display Coffee Mug, customize it however you want, and we'll handle the coffee. If you have questions about the engraving or want to submit a custom design, reach out to The Twelver Studios directly at support@thetwelverstudios.com. For anything coffee-related, you know where to find us.
Go make something good.
