Introducing Oro
For this coffee, we aimed for a medium to dark roast to create a single origin coffee with a zesty kick. The result is a vibrant espresso, perfect for those who enjoy a citrus addition to a classic espresso-based drink.
This Colombian coffee from the Huila region brings a great balance of acidity and sweetness to the cup, making it perfect for this profile.

How should I brew my coffee?
Each coffee's unique characteristics make it suitable for specific brewing methods. We consider several factors when recommending the best brewing approach for each coffee:
- Origin
- Processing Method
- Variety
- Inherent Characteristics: potential acidity, body, and sweetness, for example
By understanding these elements, we can tailor our roasting process to highlight the coffee’s strengths and suggest the optimal brewing method to fully appreciate its unique flavours.
Our goal is to provide you with the best possible coffee experience, ensuring that each cup you brew is delicious and true to the coffee's potential.
We will soon have brew guides to accompany our recommendations that take into consideration complexity, budget, available equipment etc.
