Recipe for great coffee

  1. Use cold, filtered water and a clean machine.
  2. Grind beans just before brewing:
    • Coarse for coffee press
    • Medium for automatic drip
  3. Measure 2 tbsp (10 g) ground coffee for every 6 fl oz (180 ml) water.

To help preserve that fresh flavor, keep this bag sealed tight in a cabinet (not in the refrigerator) and brew within a week of opening.

Each coffee requires slightly different amounts of time and temperature during the roasting process to create a cup at its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles so you can easily find your desired flavor and intensity.

  • Blonde: Blonde-roasted coffees have a shorter roast time, lighter body and mellow flavors.
  • Medium: Medium-roasted coffees are balanced with smooth and rich flavors.
  • Dark: Dark-roasted coffees feature a fuller body and robust, bold flavors.

We’re committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest-quality arabica coffee in the world. When we buy coffee this way, it fosters a better future for farmers, and a more stable climate for the planet. It also helps create a long-term supply of the high-quality beans we’ve been carefully blending, roasting and packing fresh for more than 40 years.

This is by far my favorite coffee. Even though it is a medium, it still oh as a strong flavor without acidic, burnt, or ashy flavor.
Yes, I recommend this product.

G.A. is a smooth brew. It is excellent by itself or use as a topping to smooth out another brew that is not so smooth.

As a barista, who has tried a lot, this is my favorite roast so far. It has such rich flavors, and the cocoa adds a depth of warmth to the flavor. Some people have their comfort food....this is my comfort drink!
Yes, I recommend this product.

We love the Guatemala Antigua because it is very similar to the Casi Cielo, but it's available all year. It just the right roast for those that enjoy something stronger than the blondes, but not as strong as the bolds.
Yes, I recommend this product.
