What Kind Of Coffee Do You Use?
A.
In partnership with Coava Coffee Roasters in Portland, Oregon, we have developed a custom blend that pairs perfectly with our taro donuts. ‘Forbidden Fruit’ is masterfully crafted to be sinfully good. This is a fruit forward coffee with delicate notes of chocolate, blueberries and golden honey. Our blend contains Coava’s highest scoring coffees from Ethiopian and Colombian regions. It is available for purchase here.

Our nitrogenated coffee, featured in our Draft Coffee and Draft Latte beverages, is brewed hot using our Ground Control coffee extractor in an oxygen-free environment and then flash-chilled and infused with nitrogen immediately. This process enhances and protects the delicate nuance of flavors, resulting in a creamy, smooth mouthfeel.
