Light Single Origin Espresso
Bright, fruit-forward, and expressive, our Light Single Origin Espresso is roasted to showcase the natural character of exceptional Ethiopian coffee. With tasting notes of sweet citrus, blackberry, and raspberry, this espresso delivers a vibrant cup with layered sweetness and a clean, lively finish.
Sourced from our farming partners in Ethiopia, this single-origin coffee reflects the distinctive flavors the region is known for. Our Roast Level 01: Light Roast approach preserves the coffee’s natural fruit characteristics instead of masking them with heavier roast flavors. The result is an espresso that feels balanced, complex, and intentionally bright from the first sip to
the finish.
A Fruit-Forward Ethiopian Espresso
Expect juicy blackberry and raspberry notes to lead the cup, followed by a refreshing sweetness reminiscent of citrus. When brewed as a straight espresso, the coffee offers concentrated fruit flavor, natural sweetness, and vibrant acidity.
Prefer milk? This light roast espresso also pairs particularly well with smaller milk-based drinks where the character of the coffee can still shine. Try it in a cortado, cappuccino, or flat white for
a smooth combination of creamy texture and bright fruit flavor.

The light roast espresso actually has hints of berry in it! I have tried coffee before that has claimed to taste like Apple or Cinnamon and to me it has just tasted like normal coffee. And I always assumed that usually those flavors were meaningless. But in the light espresso, I could actually taste blackberry.
It was also one of the smoothest and best tasting esspressos I have ever had.
the berry flavors are evident for this unique coffee - a very nice change of pace from other coffees.
I love my lattes and this light roast espresso is perfect for summer lattes! The flavor is amazingly light but tastes great!
