Great coffee takes time.

Resting our coffees is something we’ve practiced for a long time because we believe it delivers the best possible tasting experience. As a modern, forward-thinking coffee company, we roast our coffees lightly to showcase clarity, sweetness, and nuance. These lighter roasts—especially those sourced from higher elevations—tend to be denser and hold more gas after roasting, which means they benefit from a longer rest period. In our experience, most of our coffees taste their best 3+ weeks after the roast date for both filter and espresso. Some particularly dense, high-elevation coffees may need even more time to fully open up. When properly rested, our coffees show greater complexity, deeper sweetness, and a more balanced, expressive cup. This is because the beans have had time to release the excess gases built up during roasting, allowing the inner structure of the coffee to stabilize and the flavors to fully develop. Great coffee takes time—and we’ve found that giving it that time makes all the difference.

Inside the Cup

Chiroso is a varietal that was discovered in the early 2000's in Urrao, the varietal was originally thought to be a bourbon mutation but is now belived to be from ethiopian landraces. The reason we love this varietal is for the unique terroir charecteristics it presents, including complex florals and lingering sweetness. Luis Arley chiroso is a perfect presentation of the varietal from the region it was discovered. Across filter and espresso this coffee is floral, clean, and juicy reminding us of flavors including Apple Blossom, Peach, Lemongrass, and White Grape.
