Espresso Blend

Yellow Bourbon/SL28 - Natural/Washed, Classic Espresso profile 

Kenya

Bridging Two Worlds This signature espresso blend was born from a desire to bridge two distinctly beautiful coffee worlds. We set out to create a profile that showcases the vibrant, fruit-forward qualities of a modern specialty light roast, while perfectly capturing the comforting, nostalgic soul of a classic Italian espresso bar.

The Craft: 50/50 Pre-Blended Roasting The secret to this exceptional blend lies in its composition and our unique roasting approach. We combine 50% Kenyan and 50% Brazilian coffees as green beans before they enter the roaster. By applying a highly specialized, bespoke roast profile to this mixed batch, the beans integrate seamlessly during the roasting process. The result is a highly soluble light roast that extracts beautifully, producing an incredibly rich, thick crema that is rarely seen in modern specialty light roasts.

The Tasting Experience The resulting shot is deeply satisfying, perfectly balancing heavy comfort with elegant fruit notes. It builds upon a dense, syrupy chocolate body accompanied by an impressively thick crema. At its heart, you will find bright, sweet, and classic orange citrus notes, ultimately concluding with a lingering, elegant hint of tropical guava.
