Our seasonally changing blend is roasted with milk coffee lovers in mind. This blend is our take on what a milk coffee should be: rich, balanced and most importantly delicious.

Balance and structure are the backbone of this blend. Each time we receive a new single origin coffee, we sample roast it to espresso level, slowly developing more sugar to allow for higher extraction. Like blending wine, we combine the standouts of these lots that complement not only each other but retain their shine through milk.

A rich, sweet blend with dark-red stone fruit notes from Indonesia and Colombia. Adding depth and nutty tones from Burundi.

Burundi: LMC Project, Mutana Hills Lots 1544
Wash Processed

The coffee cherries are picked at peak ripeness, sorted by hand and floated in water to remove defects. They are depulped the same day, then fermented twice: 12 hours dry and 24 hours underwater. After rinsing with fresh water, they’re density-graded and dried on raised African beds for 16–20 days until reaching a moisture content of 10.5%.

Indonesia: Frinsa Manis
Natural Processed

Ripe cherries are washed and floated to remove defects, then dried whole on tarpaulins in the drying yard. Manis, meaning “sweet” in Bahasa, reflects both the flavour profile of the coffee and Frinsa’s philosophy of careful, considered processing.

Colombia: Excelso

Emerald is a rich, sweet seasonal blend that feels bright and uplifting for spring mornings. Dark-red stone fruit notes from Burundi and Indonesia bring gentle, juicy sweetness, while nutty depth from Burundi adds warmth and balance. The comforting dark chocolate undertone grounds the cup, making it layered and satisfying.

Soft dark cherry flavours shine through in milk, while hazelnut undertones carry through both black and milk-based drinks. It’s a cup that’s sweet, balanced, and layered.

Why it matters:
This medium-dark roast highlights the rich, sweet character of its origins. Dark-red stone fruit notes from El Salvador and Guatemala provide natural sweetness and brightness, while nutty tones from Burundi add depth and warmth. The roast develops a smooth body that carries beautifully through milk, revealing soft dark cherry and hazelnut flavors. Even black, the cup remains vibrant, balanced, and layered.

Espresso

Ready to open: Day 7 — can be aged and remain unopened til Day 34

After opening: Enjoy within 28 days

Why?
Espresso needs more rest than filter. During the first week, the coffee is still releasing gas, which can cause uneven extraction, mute flavours, and introduce sharp acidity. Allowing it more time lets the flavours settle, producing a more balanced, sweet, and structured cup.

(Once opened, coffee begins to age faster due to exposure to air. Enjoy within this period for the best experience.)
