He has a laboratory where he uses scientific methods to enhance the maximum potential of his coffee. The result is a super complex coffee, but in a warm, comforting way.

Heartwood Coffee It’s not often we get to offer a coffee from a farm that we stepped foot onto. When we’re able to connect all the dots in our heads about the mysteries of the coffee world, and paint a clear picture of the amount of hard work that goes into this beautiful practice, it makes what we do on a daily basis that much more meaningful. We’re hoping you can taste the fruits of this new experience, and hop on for a ride as we venture further down this exciting rabbit hole of relationship based coffee. |

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. |
