About this Coffee

Characterized by its deep structure and full body, Buena Vista’s Latin American roots yield a dark chocolate savor with a caramelized sweetness. Selected for their balance and dense flavor characteristics, these Southern Colombian coffees stand up to a deeper roast, lending a smooth and adaptable flavor profile. If you like waking up to a dark, rich flavor, look no further.

Coffee arrives at our roastery in the form of a dried green seed found formerly in the center of a tropical cherry. Neither soluble, pliable nor frangible (a material’s ability to be broken or, in this case, “ground”), green coffee has yet a way to go before becoming a roasted coffee “bean” that we’re able to, upon grinding, dissolve in water.

While our single-origin offerings are roasted to highlight the unique and seasonal characteristics that make them individually special, our blends, on the other hand, promise balance and consistency year-in, year-out. Our roasting team must adapt to any agriculture variability we find with the levers of temperature and time to uphold this promise.

Dark-roasted arabica coffee, in addition to boasting flavors characterized by caramelization and a full-bodied mouthfeel, demonstrates an intense, structured sweetness possible only from high-grown, high-density green coffee.
