Brazil • Essencia

Our perspective

Most of what we chase is light and expressive. Essencia is the exception that earns its place. We don't roast dark as a rule, and this sits at the darker end of our range, far enough to build body and sweetness without flattening the nutty, savory side that makes it work.

Brazil moves more coffee than any other country, and a roaster ought to have a real relationship with that. Ocafi is ours. They're our largest volume supplier by a wide margin, and they've pushed us toward approachable coffees that still hold to regenerative practice. You'll find Essencia on its own and underneath several of our blends.
