Coffee Roasting
We've been roasting coffee since 2016.
We roast a variety of coffees we love to drink — natural process, washed process, honey process, and special microlot varieties — with a focus on consistency and versatility. We source quality seasonal arabica green coffee from accredited, transparent purveyors and international direct-trade growers who farm with passion. Beans are roasted fresh and shipped anywhere worldwide. “We roast in small batches in Oakland, CA USA."
Beans look good to go with a nice amora for this particular roast profile.

“Rasa Chai “
Our chai recipe came from learning directly from people who make and drink it daily in India — with a special influence from Ganeshpuri, a small town near the bustling city of Mumbai Maharashtra India . It's a tea-forward, complex, balanced blend with elegant spicy undertones. We source organic Assam tea and spices from quality purveyors across India, the Asian/African diaspora, South America, Central America, and the Middle East. “Made in Berkeley CA, USA.”
