    We overall support this team. They did a great job on their last similar project. Nouns coffee is something that has been talked about a lot and this is the first serious effort to make it happen. We trust the product and branding will be high quality, so for these reasons we are voting Yes. One piece of feedback that did come up during Nouncillor discussion was that we would like to see Proposals (especially those with relatively substantial asks) go up on Discourse for at least a couple days for discussion and feedback before going on chain. This way Nouncil (and the broader Nouns community) has time to ask clarifying questions about budget, success metrics, etc. We are voting YES here in spite of this not having been done in this case, but would encourage future Proposers to consider this route when possible. By the way, we also welcome Proposers to Post their ideas in Nouncil for feedback, or ask to have it added to our weekly call Agenda.

    i see both sides on this one. appreciate the idea, founders, and efforts to proliferate the brand, but this seems like a lot of capital to allocate to something that likely doesnt require de-risking. this is a very straightforward business model and nouns are already providing brand assets and a market of consumers for the product. unsure if we should also pay 100% of initial setup and inventory costs

    The Nouns team is proposing the creation of Nouns Coffee, a consumable brand aimed at improving everyday life. The plan involves sourcing a high-quality roaster for the brand, ensuring fair trade and organic coffee, and offering a variety of single origins and blends. An ecommerce site will be built to streamline operations and enable crypto payments.

    I'm curious how the Nouns Coffee is going to be run. Which entity is sourcing the coffee, building the brand, receiving the payments, etc.? Will the Nouns DAO (or any other decentralized org) have any involvement with that (aside from Nouns DAO funding)?--This is just a thought and not a direction that need to be taken but it'd be cool if Nouns Coffee could be build somewhat like what LinksDAO is doing for golf.
    Nouns Coffee will be its own entity for legal reasons, and they will be the ones sourcing the coffee, building the brand, managing payments, etc., at least for Phase 1. The DAO will be involved in cupping and tasting sessions on a first-come, first-serve basis to help craft the best roasts possible and have the coffee be truly a product of the DAO. Phases 2 and 3 could open up many exciting avenues to explore.

    when I read this knowing little about coffee I am blown away by the expertise and passion. there is sophistication that I think can be matched by the visuals that represent this brew.-Is the bean noun a snooty connoisseur? is it hip? is it an expert helping you find deliciousness?
    The bean noun is a combination of sophistication, expertise, and fun. It represents the various aspects of coffee culture, including the snooty connoisseur, the hip enthusiast, and the expert helping others find deliciousness. The character is malleable and can be adapted to different personalities and applications.

    Where is nouns roaster located?
    Nouns roaster doesn't have a fixed location. They partner with different roasters all the time to test the waters and be adventurous in the roasts they choose. The white label roast for their first roast is based in the upper Midwest.
