Origin & Region

The beans for Bitterroot are sourced exclusively from the Cerrado Mineiro region of Brazil, one of the country’s most respected coffee-growing zones. This area is known for:

• Flat, high-altitude terrain that ensures consistency in cultivation.

• Predictable climate patterns that allow for dependable harvests year after year.

• Advanced post-harvest processing and controlled drying techniques, guaranteeing quality and reliability.

These factors combine to produce beans that stand up beautifully to dark roasting, delivering the chocolatey richness and robust body Brazilian coffees are celebrated for.

Altitude & Processing

• Altitude: 900–1,400 meters above sea level.

• Processing: Pulped natural method.

This processing style strikes a balance between natural sweetness and structured clarity. By partially drying the coffee with its mucilage still intact, the beans develop a chocolatey depth and nutty foundation, which are then amplified by the dark roast profile.

Blend Composition

Bitterroot features a selection of traditional Brazilian Arabica varietals:

• Bourbon: Adds natural sweetness and rounded body.

• Mundo Novo: Contributes to structure and resilience.

• Catuaí, Catucaí & Catigua: Provide depth, nutty undertones, and adaptability to dark roasting.

Together, these varietals produce a cup that is bold, consistent, and layered with dark chocolate and roasted nut notes.

Perfect for Bold Coffee Lovers

Bitterroot is ideal for those who crave a classic, no-nonsense cup of coffee. Its strength makes it an excellent choice for drip brewing, French press, or espresso. It also pairs exceptionally well with milk or cream, creating a smooth yet powerful latte or cappuccino.

Whether you enjoy your coffee black or with additions, this roast maintains its character, offering boldness and depth with every brew.
