Information
Named after the musical direction for loud and strong, Forte is our new seasonal espresso blend profiled for those who seek something brighter. A fuller expression of fruit and sweetness, designed to shine on both espresso and filter, with or without milk.
At its foundation lies a natural-process Brazil, delivering the rich chocolate depth and roasted nut warmth that anchor the cup. Alongside it, a washed African coffee (Burundi) brings vivid berry brightness, while a natural Central American coffee (Honduras) adds layers of dried apricot and apple. Each component is firmly within the speciality grade on the SCA scale and reflects a commitment to quality and ethical sourcing.
The label is an original hand-painted work, created as a visual meditation on seasonal change - foliage unfurling into lush greenness and the chemistry of chlorophyll drinking in summer light.
Forte is a seasonal offering built to evolve. While a natural Brazil will remain at its core, we intend to rotate the supporting origins over time, exploring new combinations and refining what a truly versatile, fruit-forward blend can be.
Recommended brew method
Filter: Drip coffee machines, pour-over, aeropress. 60gr/l ratio.
Espresso: We suggest a 50% ratio for espresso, aiming for double the yield (36gr) from an 18gr dose.
