Big Truck Espresso Blend 12oz.

Big Truck is our quest for espresso perfection. We strive for a cup full of sweet chocolate, heavy with dense fruit and a long clean finish.

Our flagship espresso blend. We devote constant attention to Big Truck and think it might be the best organic espresso blend you can find. Coffee is a seasonal fresh produce and different producing countries have varied seasons and harvest periods. We strive to buy smaller lots in their prime to keep the blend as fresh as possible. The ingredients of the blend change based upon seasonality, yet the flavor profile for Big Truck remains the same.

Currently Big Truck consists of two delightful coffees:

El Salvador Santa Adelaida - Formerly a single estate, the land is now home to 250 families who live and work together growing delicious coffee. A true community has developed here: the cooperative maintains three schools, a medical facility and housing for all. Their Bourbon varietal coffee is grown under dense shade trees, prolonging the ripening of the coffee cherries which instills fantastic sweetness and acidity in the beans. Santa Adelaida is a lush, diverse and beautiful place that exemplifies what a Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee farm can be.

Ethiopia Amaro Gayo - This amazing coffee comes from the almost unknown coffee growing region of Amaro, grown within the boundaries of the Nechisar National Park. Asnakech Thomas is the producer of this coffee and happens to also be the only female grower-miller-exporter in all of Ethiopia. Her commitment to quality is apparent through improvements at her dry mill and the picking of only ripe coffee cherries at harvest. This coffee is what is known as natural processed: coffee seeds (beans) dry with the fruit (cherry) on them only to be milled off when drying is complete. Good naturally processed coffees are fruity, heavy, and sweet. Amaro Gayo is all this and more.
