NATIVE | Our seasonal house blend, created to highlight all that’s smooth and sweet in a satisfying cup of coffee, currently comprised of coffees from Brazil, Guatemala, and Colombia. Native has a rounded flavour profile that is all praline, caramel and chocolate, with low acidity created for those that like a reliable, smooth cup. We’ve developed the roast well without taking it too dark, to give good body and flavour without the bitterness, great both as espresso and French press/cafetiere.
LUZ HELENA, COLOMBIA, HOUSE SINGLE ORIGIN | This washed coffee boasts notes of grapefruit, plum, and milk chocolate. A deliciously well-rounded and balanced cup, enjoy a citrus zing, stone fruit sweetness, and a smooth chocolate finish. We love to have a house single origin coffee that provides a smooth full body accompanied by more delicate fruity acidity. Roasting this coffee gently allows us to maintain its balanced profile, working well for both espresso and filter.
