Originally developed for cold brewing in our New York coffee shops, this blend of natural and washed process coffees brews a balanced cup with any method, from a bright, juicy pour over to a full-bodied French press or espresso. Bursting with tart, sweet notes of ripe berries and rounded out by a rich, creamy milk chocolate body, Verano is made for easy sipping all summer long.

ticket to ride summer from first light on into the sunset—with notes of juicy melon, sweet tropical citrus, and smooth caramel.
Blueprint Coffee: Nairobi AA, Kenya
This season, we asked our partners Royal New York to help us source a coffee that would fit well in our “Tangy” profile. We were looking for a bright and juicy cup, with a citrusy zip supported by a structured complexity. This offering comes from a number of small farms, mostly in Nyeri county; it beautifully exemplifies the classic washed Kenyan profile.

Decaffeinated using the natural Sugar Cane process, the coffee retains sweetness, texture, and aromatic complexity while delivering a clean, satisfying finish.
Klatch Coffee: Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Supernatural
One of the highest-rated coffees we’ve ever roasted returns for a limited time! The enhanced natural process (“Supernatural”) amplifies the fruit-forward character and complexity. Enjoy a clean, syrupy body layered with wild blueberry, bright juicy strawberry, and delicate florals, finishing silky smooth with lingering sweetness.

Juan is a second-generation farmer who has been cultivating coffee for over 40 years on his 16-hectare farm, El Porvenir, in Palestina, Huila. His expertise and early investment in the Pink Bourbon cultivar have earned him recognition and awards within the specialty coffee community, so we are excited to continue working alongside Juan to roast this small batch of his Gesha variety.
Partners Coffee: Burundi – Gahahe
Our final Burundian coffee of the season comes from Gahahe, a fantastic washing station in the red clay hills of Kayanza Province. This fully washed lot is an excellent rendering of flavors we’ve come to love in East Africa.
