What is Aroma On The Rocks?
Aroma On The Rocks is a Charleston-based small business dedicated to crafting luxurious soy wax candles inspired by the rich aromas of coffee and the sophistication of fine cocktails. Each candle is meticulously handcrafted to encapsulate the essence of your favorite beverages, creating a sensory experience that sets the mood for unforgettable moments.
Who Started Aroma On The Rocks?
Aroma On The Rocks was founded by the dynamic duo of Baleigh Shortreed and Russell Fleming. Together, they bring a passion for candles, adult beverages, and great company to life through their unique and indulgent creations.
Why and When Was Aroma On The Rocks Started?
Baleigh and Russell started Aroma On The Rocks as a side hustle to pay off some debt, but it quickly transformed into a passion project. The concept was born out of a desire to make money while testing their relationship in a way that always felt like a date night, allowing them to bond together. Their love for the artistry of bar drinks and the comforting aroma of coffee inspired them to create something truly unique. They officially launched Aroma On The Rocks to combine these passions and bring the joy and warmth of happy hour into every home.
How Did Aroma On The Rocks Become A Company?
The idea for Aroma On The Rocks was sparked when Baleigh, an avid wine drinker, discovered candles styled after coffee cups while browsing the internet. Inspired, she envisioned infusing these candles with the essence of a variety of drinks. With this creative spark, Baleigh and Russell set out to meticulously handcraft their soy wax candles, carefully selecting ingredients and exquisite glassware to ensure a clean, long-lasting burn. Each candle is poured with love and precision, celebrating the art of slowing down and savoring life's little moments.
