About This Coffee

This espresso blend is composed of equal proportions of Costa Rica Monte Brisas black honey processed coffee and natural Kochere from Ethiopia. The milk chocolate character and creamy texture of the black honey processing complements the floral and tangy character of the Kochere. Together, this duo provides a well-balanced acidity in the cup, rounded out by the smoothness of the black honey processing. Excellent with milk.

Cantook

Tucked along Rue Saint Jean in Quebec City, Cantook Micro Torrefaction carries a name inspired by the lumberjack's tool known as a "can't hook," a nod to the collaboration between French and English settlers that shaped Canada's identity. The family behind Cantook has been in coffee since 1982, with the current business on Saint Jean Street operating since 1998 under co ownership since 2005. They roast on a Diedrich IR 12, with the process fully visible to guests who come for expertly prepared pour overs, espresso drinks, and the cafe's beloved matcha cookies. Direct trade relationships, including origin trips to Costa Rica, ensure that quality and transparency guide every roast.
