What is coffee?

Coffee is a fruit, and like any fruit, it comes in many varietals. A Honeycrisp apple tastes nothing like a Granny Smith. The same is true of coffee: every variety carries its own naturally occurring flavor. We source beans whose flavor matches a tasting note you’d recognize: strawberry, peach, peanut butter. We don’t add anything to make them taste that way, before or after the roast.

The fewer things in your cup, the more clearly you can taste the bean. So we keep things short, starting with our menu. It lists our most popular drinks, but we’re happy to make any other drink you might want to order, like a cortado or a cappuccino. Our add-ins are just as short: cocoa, vanilla, honey, and maple. Each one is just as simple. Our cocoa is just cacao, salt, and water. Our honey is just honey. Our maple is 100% pure maple. Our vanilla is pure vanilla extract. And our sweetener list is just as pure and simple. The bean stays the choice that matters most.

We’ve questioned every parameter. Heavier doses for clarity. Colder brew temps for sweetness. Lower pressure for smoothness. We even brew each shot differently depending on the bean and drink type. We offgas our beans because trapped carbon dioxide from roasting causes the coffee to taste bitter. We have 21 steps to prep a single puck of espresso. Every detail is intentionally tested, and we only keep what proves to be meaningfully better. Each choice lets the bean’s naturally occurring tasting notes come through and gives you the best cup of coffee we know how to make.

Every drink starts the same way: made exactly the way we know to be best. From there, it gets personal. We’ll ask you to taste your drink before you go, and we’re happy to adjust anything to make it perfectly yours.
