The best coffees come from the right balance of precision, experience, and innovation. This Elixir from our long-time partners at Gold Mountain Coffee Growers is a shining example.

A special processing method called carbonic maceration results in a coffee that’s sweet, fruity, and floral. Its dynamic flavor profile wows with big, expressive flavors and delicate nuances like creamy pistachio and soft elderflower tones. It’s complex, delicious, and memorable — the result of strong, lasting relationships with future-oriented producers.

DISCOVER MORE

This distinctive Nicaraguan microlot from our partners at Gold Mountain Coffee Growers comes from GMCG member farmers in the Matagalpa and Jinotega regions. Grown at elevations of 1200 to 1269 meters, the coffee features a blend of Caturra Estrella, Catuai, and Pacas varieties.

Through a carbonic maceration natural process, the cherries ferment for 4 to 8 days (119–191 hours)—a precise, monitored window that highlights the coffee’s vibrant fruit character while maintaining balance and clarity.

Each lot reflects the dedication of the farmers and the meticulous care behind every step, from fermentation timing to sugar content and cherry selection. The result is a coffee that embodies both innovation and traceability, roasted to express the full depth and sweetness of its origin.

FUTURE ROAST

Orders for the 12/3 roast will become available later in November.

When you place an order from us, our highest priority is sending you the freshest coffee possible. You deserve it, and frankly so do our world class coffee producers and their coffees.

- If you order on Monday - Thursday before 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the next business day.
- If you order on Monday - Thursday after 3:00pm CST, your order will ship out the day following the next business day. (ex: orders placed at 4:00pm CST on a Monday will ship on Wednesday).

We offer three different grind sizes on the vast majority of our coffee offerings: drip, espresso, and French press.
- Use drip grind if you plan on making your coffee using a coffee machine, in a pour over brewer, or if you want to try a newer way to make your trusty French press.
- Use espresso grind if you have an espresso machine at home. This grind will be very fine and will over-extract (in other words, taste bitter and chalky) in other methods.
- Use French press grind if you are making a coffee in the more traditional French Press method, or making cold brew, or do very large batches in a Chemex (greater than 60 grams of coffee).

Please visit our brewing page here. Coffee brewing is as much an art as it is a science, and it might take a few tries for you to find a sweet-spot that matches your taste preference. We recommend not getting too lost in the "right" way to brew, but instead focus on what you like and try to educate yourself on some best practices. And then just take it from there!
That said, we offer several how-to's for many popular brewers:
Our blends run from medium-light to dark. You can get a full breakdown of the blends in our Blend Buying Guide.
Core Blends include:
700 is our medium-roast core espresso blend that also tastes great as drip.
Cafe Kaldi has been our house blend since 1994. It contains coffee from Ethiopia that gives it a touch of complexity.
Dancing Goats Blend is a little more developed and gives a bit bolder of a cup.
Highlander Grogg is a fan-favorite flavored coffee.
