IT ALL STARTS AT THE COFFEE FARM
Each of the coffees contributing to this dark roast blend were previously featured as single origin offerings, showcasing the best of what their regions can produce. The components come from committed smallholder farmers: Triunfo Verde coop in Mexico, Donald Roque in Nicaragua, and a collective of producers in Colombia’s Tolima region. The end result is a blend that delivers a rich, full-bodied cup with notes of dark chocolate, toasted nuts, and subtle fruit undertones, perfectly balanced with a smooth, lingering finish.

HOW DID WE ROAST THIS COFFEE?
This coffee is being roasted by Ian T. from November 4 to November 29 in Brooklyn. We use the Loring Kestrel roaster for this profile. We have strict guidelines for each of the coffee profiles, and this roast has to pass the development time ratio test as measured in real-time by the roasting software, Cropster. Once it does, it is approved for production.
QUALITY CONTROL
We perform Quality Control via a process of coffee tasting called cupping on all of our production roasts once a week at our roastery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Each cupping is conducted by Ian T., Anu M., Suyog M., and James M. using standard equipment, and is logged by our Q-certified cupper Ian T. All coffees are evaluated on a scoring scale of 0 to 3.
- 3.0 = exceptional roast - exceeds expectations
- 2.5 = on par with profile - matches expectations
- 2.0 = good roast, but 1 or 2 elements could be improved - needs improvement
- 1.5 or lower = failed - do not ship
PRODUCTION AND SHIPPING
Less than 24 hours after roasting, we bag your coffee in our production facility in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Our production team is led by Anthony and Torie, and supported by a rotating cast of local artists, musicians and independent professionals.
