It was a long summer … and we’re ready for a change! Introducing our fall drink menu: a lineup of drinks made for chilly afternoons and cozy hangs. This year’s menu brings back a mix of familiar favorites and warm flavors built for cool-weather sipping.

There’s a reason Ethiopian coffees have such a strong reputation. Between the high elevations, heirloom varietals, and unique growing regions, they tend to have a character all their own. Bochessa is a great example.

If you’re someone who likes a coffee with a little personality, meet one of our newest releases, Huver Castillo. This vibrant coffee from Nariño, Colombia, is the kind of cup that makes you stop and think.

We’re grateful to partner with a business like Cup of Wonder, where coffee is about so much more than what’s in the cup. Sarah and Dan have created a space rooted in connection, kindness, and a genuine love for their community, and we’re proud to be a small part of it.

In a world that increasingly happens behind a screen, third places give us a reason to slow down, step outside, and simply be around other people. Marissa makes the case for coffee shops as modern third places — spaces where small, everyday interactions can foster connection, community, and a sense of belonging.

For years, decaf coffee has carried an unfair reputation. It’s often thought of as the coffee you drink when you have to skip caffeine — not the coffee you actually look forward to drinking. But we believe every coffee we roast should be exceptional, whether it fuels you or is simply meant for you to enjoy.

Fresh-crop African coffee season is one of our favorite times of year, and we're kicking it off with the return of a coffee we couldn't wait to roast again.

Say hello (again) to Gatuya AA from Muranga, Kenya.
