Start your day with a black coffee

We have specially selected an optimal blend of beans from different origins for each of our coffee blends. This creates a unique flavor profile and a combination of natural bean characteristics that cannot be duplicated in any one type of single-origin coffee bean. we select from among the top farms within a region, and look for the one that has the specific flavor characteristics that we need for that component of a blend. Sometimes we aren’t happy with a particular crop, and so we go in search of not just other beans from the same country, but other beans that will give us the flavor characteristics we’re looking for. There really is a difference when coffee is roasted by hand, with real people conducting the entire process, vs. industrialized machines run by computers. By tending each batch by hand we are observing the process from beginning to end, adjusting when necessary, and removing defective beans or foreign matter (rocks, sticks, staples, marbles etc.) either before or after roasting. We then package by hand – a final opportunity for quality control.
