Description

BOREALIS BLEND

Our seasonal winter blend is named for the dazzling Northern Lights, designed to inspire the same wonder. This year's edition of Borealis features coffees from smallholder farms in Ethiopia and Peru, and a selection of lots from Kenya.

We recommend starting with a 1:18 coffee-to-water ratio, which provides an excellent total extraction level and maximizes flavor pulled out of the ground coffee. For our blends we recommend either a pour over or a automatic drip home machine. We recommend a grind size 5 or 6 or if you are grinding at home mimic the size of Morton Coarse Kosher Salt.

Borealis is designed to inspire the same sense of wonder as the dazzling light show for which our seasonal winter blend is named.

Every winter, the sun sends forth a solar wind so fast that it makes 100-million-mile odyssey to Earth in less than two days. Millions of hyper-charged solar particles ride that wind to the north pole, where they send technicolor cascades off the outer bounds of our atmosphere. The effect is something other-worldly.

Borealis is similarly meant to mark the season and inspire awe, both with the iridescent bag and the coffee that goes inside.
