The Warmup
$16.00
A crisp morning awaits your presence. Long before the streetlights shut off. Well before the busy streets begin to stir. You have the gear and a morning routine – we’ve crafted this to offer you clarity and a kick.
Our partnership with ciele athletics called for a coffee created with intention - for the ones who escape with morning strides. Kenya is a well-loved origin; our Warm Series finds the perfect spot between complexity and consistency, and The Warm Up is a roast that suits all kinds of extraction methods.
This coffee features SL-28 and SL-34 varietals processed using the washed method. This is also the first time we are featuring a peaberry on our menu. A rare mutation that when harvested and roasted on its own creates a flavour profile more vibrant and complex than its more common siblings. Notes of tropical fruit bring vibrance, while orange chocolate and caramel add depth, texture and refinement.
Give your early morning strides an extra shot. From your bed to your kitchen table, and from your foyer to down the street. Here’s to your new caffeinated ritual to get you out the door.
