ROASTERY NOTES


Coffee at Cappucho Café


At Cappucho, coffee is roasted in small batches with a simple goal: let each coffee speak clearly.

We are not trying to make every coffee taste the same. Some coffees want to be bright and floral. Some want to be round, sweet, and chocolatey. Some arrive with fruit, honey, spice, citrus, or soft cream already hiding inside them.  


Our coffees are selected for personality, origin, processing method, and how they perform in the cup. We roast for espresso, pour-over, milk drinks, and the quiet pleasure of a cup that changes as it cools.


How We Think About Roasting


A light roast preserves more of the coffee’s origin character. It can highlight fruit, florals, tea-like structure, citrus, and delicate sweetness.

A medium roast develops more body and caramelization. It can bring out notes of cocoa, honey, shortbread, toasted sugar, nuts, cream, and deeper fruit.

A darker roast moves toward heavier body, lower acidity, and bittersweet flavors such as dark chocolate, toasted nuts, caramel, and molasses.

Roasting is not simply a march from light to dark. It is more like adjusting the light in a room. The same coffee can show different colors depending on how it is roasted.


Current Roastery Notes


Ethiopia Shanta Golba Natural

Roast style: Light
Cup notes: Boysenberry, lavender, sweet cream
Process: Natural
Character: Floral, fruit-forward, bright, aromatic

Shanta Golba is the delicate flame in the lineup. Roasted light, it opens with vivid berry and floral aromatics while keeping a soft creaminess underneath. This is a coffee for pour-over drinkers who like a cup that feels lifted, fragrant, and alive.


Ethiopia Oromia Union Washed

Roast style: Medium
Cup notes: Shortbread, tangerine, caramelized sugar
Process: Washed
Character: Clean, balanced, citrus-sweet, structured

Oromia Union is the composed middle voice. The washed process gives the cup clarity and structure, while the medium roast develops sweetness and roundness. It carries a lovely pastry-like quality, with tangerine brightness and caramelized sugar warmth.


Ethiopia Bette Buna Natural

Roast style: Medium
Cup notes: Blackberry jam, wildflower honey, black tea
Process: Natural
Character: Fruit-forward, honeyed, tea-like, expressive

Bette Buna is the dramatic one. Natural processing brings fruit and aroma to the front, while the medium roast gives the cup enough body to feel generous. Expect dark berry sweetness, honeyed depth, and a black-tea finish.


Mexico Sierra Azul

Roast style: Flexible, excellent from light through darker profiles
Cup notes by roast: Honeycomb, milk chocolate, almond, orange, cola, chocolate, heavy cream, baking spice, dark chocolate, toasted nuts, vanilla, caramel, nutmeg, molasses
Process: Washed
Character: Approachable, structured, sweet, versatile

Sierra Azul is one of those coffees that behaves beautifully across a wide roast range. Lighter roasts bring honeycomb sweetness, milk chocolate, almond, and orange. Medium roasts become rounder and sweeter, moving toward cola, chocolate, heavy cream, and baking spice. Deeper roasts grow richer and more syrupy, with dark chocolate, toasted nuts, vanilla, caramel, nutmeg, and molasses.

This is a strong choice for espresso, batch brew, and milk drinks. It is friendly without being flat.


Brazil Parceiros do Café

Roast style: Medium to espresso-focused
Cup notes: Peanut brittle, toasted marshmallow, bittersweet chocolate; some Bellwether lots also show peanut butter, dark chocolate, and dried cherry
Process: Natural
Character: Sweet, low-acid, chocolatey, nutty, round

Parceiros do Café is the comfort register of the roastery. It brings Brazil’s classic strengths: sweetness, body, low acidity, and chocolate-nut depth. Depending on the lot and roast, it can taste like peanut brittle, toasted marshmallow, bittersweet chocolate, peanut butter, dark chocolate, or dried cherry.

This is the coffee that loves milk. It gives espresso drinks a rich base without overwhelming them, and it works beautifully for customers who want coffee that feels smooth, warm, and familiar.


Our Roasting Philosophy

Cappucho coffee should taste handcrafted, intentional, and human.

We roast with attention to origin, but we also roast for the way people actually drink coffee: at the bar, on a walk, over conversation, with pastry, with milk, or in a quiet morning minute before the machinery of the day begins.

Coffee accelerates us and slows us down at the same time. A good cup sharpens the mind, but it also asks you to notice. That little pause is where Cappucho lives.
