Our coffee comes from Stumptown roasters, based in Portland, Oregon, and it is the best in the world, no joke. The beans start at small farms in the richest coffee-growing regions and are then hand roasted in vintage roasters here in Brooklyn.
The coffee we pour in our cafe arrives at the table, from Guatemala, no more than four days out of the roaster, because coffee beans start to lose their flavor 10 days after roasting. And it wins “best of…” awards year in and year out. Along with our espresso drinks, it is brewed within seconds of being ground.
Try some different beans at home. Central American coffees tend to have undertones of citrus and chocolate. The Kenyan and Rwandan beans have a bigger, bolder flavor. Ethiopia Heirloom varietals produce some the of most coveted flavors in the world that, depending on process, can range from floral (think jasmine in particular), to sweetly citric (distinct lemon), to chocolate, to Assam tea, and to wild berries. An Indonesian Bourbon varieta has a distinct, earthy flavor, known for its complex acidity and tremendous balance.. Be sure to ask what’s on the shelf, since the selection changes depending on the season and what the Stumptown Coffee buyers find in their travels.
