Coffee Culture Redefined: The Batarao Family Expands Maas Coffee Roasters Destin ✨
“Coffee is a language in itself, it connects people, sparks conversations, and creates community.” ☕
For years, Maas Coffee Roasters has been more than a café along the Emerald Coast, it’s been a place where craftsmanship meets community. From bold blends like Jazz and Breakfast Roast to the artistry of lattes adorned with hearts and leaves, every cup is a reminder that coffee here is more than a drink, it’s an experience.
When Teddy and Lupe Batarao acquired Maas in 2023, it wasn’t just about carrying on a name. It was about preserving a legacy and expanding it into something even greater. With their daughter Eliana running the Fort Walton Beach location, the Bataraos have opened a new chapter in Destin, creating a warm, welcoming space where locals, professionals, students, and couples alike can gather, linger, and connect.
Every detail at Maas speaks to intention, beans roasted in-house, blends crafted with precision, and a culture that makes you feel at home the moment you walk in. The new Destin café has already become a hub for connection, from unhurried conversations and business meetings to date nights and quiet study sessions. Even the chess board in the corner tells the story: this is a place to slow down, think, and enjoy.
For the Bataraos, coffee is more than a business. It’s about honoring history while embracing the future. Maas Coffee remains iconic not because it chases trends, but because it stays rooted in passion, quality, and community. And now, with Destin as its newest home, the future is brighter than ever. 🌟
