Little Brother Espresso

An uncommon balance between bright and sweet stone fruits with lower toned flavors of rich milk chocolate, caramel, and honey Little Brother always features relationship coffees that stand on their own as single origin offerings from small scale producers we know, so the overall quality, balance and consistency is rarely matched in an espresso blend. Even with such consistent coffees, we also roast each component separately to align their development and solubility for the most even extraction possible. Always a breeze to dial in as espresso and easy to brew using your favorite filter method. Little Brother is our reference to the company of Saint Francis as well as an expression of our vision in sourcing and sharing coffees. Francis affectionately called his group of friends as the “little brothers” never taking themselves too seriously while at the same time serving one another and the world with a familial connection. Little Brother Espresso is our attempt to give you something unassuming and humble yet inherently special and significant, sweet and approachable yet still compelling. We always comprise Little Brother with coffees from small family farmers, the true source of the coffee stream flowing throughout the world. Bolivia Pablo Yana 50% Grown by Pablo Yana in San Ignacio, Caranavi. Don Pablo is a leader in his community hosting all of our village visits. His consistency in his farm is a model of efficiency and quality and is perfect for Little Brother with chocolate and pear for days! Burundi Bumba Hill 50% Grown by our farmer friends on Bumba Hill with the Long Miles Coffee Project in the Kayanza region. While this hill has produced coffee for decades it has only recently been expressed as a distinct coffee through our work with Long Miles. It shares the red fruited flavors of nearby Ninga Hill but presents a darker black berry structure that makes an excellent part for Brother Sun.
