Rentjana Roastery, located in Pontianak, was established in 2019 as a modern coffee shop committed to achieving specialty coffee standards. Over time, it expanded by adding a coffee roastery to support its ecosystem, allowing greater freedom in coffee product exploration. This extension enables Rentjana to serve not only its own café but also sell to other businesses in the coffee industry. Inspired by the Japanese aesthetic of "Wabi Sabi," Rentjana Roastery values imperfection, simplicity, and emotional connection, creating a deep bond between the space and its visitors.
