Mr. Espresso Brazilian coffees are often viewed as “workhorse” coffees. They’re regularly used as the main component of a blend to give good chocolate notes and body, but they’re rarely the star of the show. This coffee eschews that designation and truly shines as a single origin espresso and brew. Brazil Córrego Da Boa Vista is a coffee that absolutely bursts with freshness. In the cup you’ll find an abundance of florals including lavender and jasmine, followed by vetiver, and ending with toasted almond. |

Heartwood Coffee Finca Rosita covers 32 hectares, solely dedicated to coffee cultivation. The farm is named in honor of the family matriarch, Rosa Angelica Aramayo. What differentiates Bolivian coffees from other growing regions is The uniqueness of the Andean terrain. During harvest season, producers are working around the clock to sell cherry and transport it to collection stations within Caranavi. Java is a selection from an Ethiopian landrace population called Abysinia. It was introduced to Costa Rica in 1991 to provide options for smallholders using low inputs. As indicated by the name, the variety was introduced to the island of Java directly from Ethiopia by the Dutch in the early 19th century. (WCR) |

Sightglass Coffee Summer Solstice is thoughtfully crafted to capture the carefree spirit of the season. We source two expressive coffees—one bright and floral, the other deep and fruit-forward—and blend them to create something layered, juicy, and undeniably summery.

Washed and natural processes add both clarity and complexity, while the final cup brims with tropical fruit, delicate florals, and sun-ripened sweetness.

THE BARN This week, we are excited to share the Indonesian coffee that changed our perceptions: Radiophare is back. Building on a 300-year history of coffee production, new producers and cooperatives in Indonesia are delivering flavour profiles that are totally unique. From the Sunda region of Java, this naturally processed lot offers bold, tropical flavour. Processing balanced naturals is difficult in Indonesia due to the humidity, but Radiophare is a true stand out. In the cup, expect velvety sweetness and vibrant fruit – like passion fruit gelato. |

PERC Y’all – this coffee is a banger. We just finished cupping it, and I’m already writing this entry. We typically have a sourcing line-up we follow, and technically, we did not need another coffee, but this one was too dang good to pass up. We love it because even though it’s an anaerobic, it just tastes like a really, really good natural. It’s like the ripest, sweetest strawberries took a bath in strawberry yogurt and honey. |
