Full Portfolio of Coffee to Launch to Consumers Later This Year

Inspired by Dolly Parton’s beloved anthem "9 to 5", the global superstar launches a new signature coffee brand, Cup of Ambition, in partnership with Community Coffee. Launching with Light, Medium, and Dark roasts, Dolly worked with the Saurage family – Community Coffee’s founding family now in its sixth generation – to curate an initial range of offerings.

"I've spent a lifetime workin’ 9 to 5, 5 to 9, and every hour in between! It takes a lot of energy to pursue your passion and navigate each day. That’s why I wanted to make a coffee that works just as hard. You know, I begin each morning with a head full of dreams, a notepad full of ideas, and a cup or two of coffee," says Dolly. "Whether you’re chasing dreams, tackling that to-do list, or just enjoying a quiet morning at home, I hope it brings a smile with every sip."

Created to capture the warmth, energy, and Southern hospitality Dolly is known for, Cup of Ambition brings Dolly’s signature personality and charm together with Community Coffee’s rich tradition of premium coffee craftsmanship. Built on Community Coffee’s more than century-long legacy of coffee expertise, the partnership with Dolly came together over a shared love of family, community, and authentic connection.

"Dolly embodies the same values Community Coffee was built on: hard work, warmth, and genuine connection. This partnership felt right from the very first conversation, and Cup of Ambition is something our family is truly proud and honored to put our name behind," says Donna Saurage, third generation owner of Community Coffee.
