Coffee Program Filters

In-House Roaster

The shop roasts its own coffee beans either on site or through a dedicated roasting facility. This usually indicates greater control over quality and freshness.

Retails Single-Origin

The shop sells whole bean coffee so customers can brew the same coffee at home.

Siphon Brewing

A rare and specialized brewing method that uses vapor pressure and vacuum extraction. It produces exceptionally clean and aromatic coffee and is typically found only in serious specialty coffee shops.

Slow Bar / Pour-Over

This is a manual brewing method where hot water is poured slowly over coffee grounds. It produces coffee that is cleaner than drip but lighter than espresso. It is highly valued by coffee enthusiasts because it reveals the unique flavor characteristics of single origin beans.

Feature Single-Origin

The shop offers coffee sourced from a specific farm, region, or country rather than blends. This can be in their espressos, pour-over or drip. Single Origin coffees are perfect to experience distinct flavor profiles unique to each origin.

Specialty and Alternative Offerings

Nootropic or Mushroom Coffee

The shop offers coffee or beverages containing functional ingredients such as lion mane mushroom or adaptogens. These are often marketed for focus or wellness benefits.

Milk Alternatives

The shop offers non dairy milk options such as oat milk, almond milk, soy milk, or similar alternatives.
