Organic Espresso

Our mainstay espresso blend that hits that Goldilocks zone of coffee - not too bitter, not too sour, but just right. Smooth, syrupy and sweet. The 2022 version is a 3 bean blend: 75% Guatemala Asodiett Txol X'ag Don't ask us to pronounce that But this coffee, from Huehuetenango, is the killer base for our blend. A mix of different varietals from the Asodiett Coop, a group of about 30 producers who banded together to improve their coffee quality. The washed coffee gives us all those hazelnut and chocolate vibes we love as an espresso base. 15% Honduras Copan This blend of coffees, from the Coop Cafescor (130 member coop), is Fair Trade, Organic, UTZ and Rainforest Alliance certified. They're doing great things for both the coffee and the community where they grow coffees. This coffee brings us the sweetness we crave in an espresso - we get notes of milk chocolate, brown sugar, almond paste and a splash of key lime pie for good measure. 10% Burundi Nemba: This delicious African coffee comes to us from the Nemba washing station. Nemba uses a monitoring system to ensure traceability all along the production and processing chain. All 3,000+ producers are smallholders who own an average of 150 coffee trees. The farms delivering cherry to Nemba are all located around 1,700+ meters above sea level, near the Kibila forest. This final coffee bring in that beautiful African acidity and fruitiness to the blend.

More Details

Organic
Organic coffee is produced without synthetic chemicals, such as pesticides, herbicides, and artificial fertilizers. Instead, organic coffee farmers rely on natural and sustainable agricultural practices like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control. To be labeled as organic, coffee must meet strict regulations and certification criteria set by governing bodies, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or the European Union (EU). Organic coffee not only supports environmental sustainability but may also offer health benefits, as it contains fewer chemical residues than conventionally grown coffee.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
