Arhoma Mix (Saison)
Café PistaAbout This Coffee
This is a dark roast blend called Saison, specially designed for espresso and inspired by Italian tradition. The blend consists of two coffees from Brazil and Colombia. The Brazilian coffee is grown at 1000 meters altitude, while the Colombian coffee is grown at 1500 meters. Both coffees are picked at full maturity, sorted by floating and hand-sorting to remove overripe or underripe cherries. They are mechanically pulped, then dry fermented for 24 to 36 hours, before being spread on patios for 7 to 10 days for slow and even drying. The coffee offers a classic profile with caramel and chocolate tasting notes and a syrupy texture particularly suited to espresso and lattes.

Café Pista
What began in 2014 as Le Pista Cafe Mobile, a bicycle powered coffee cart created by Maxime Richard, has grown into a Montreal roastery with three brick and mortar locations. The first permanent cafe opened on Beaubien Street in 2016, and roasting now takes place on a Loring S15 Falcon at the Rue Masson location. Cafe Pista maintains a farm to table mentality, building direct relationships with producers to ensure quality and traceability from origin to cup. In a uniquely Montreal twist, select locations transform into Vin Public wine bars on Thursday and Friday evenings, blending coffee culture with the city's vibrant social scene.
