Café PistaAbout This Coffee
This coffee comes from the village of Nagasire on the slopes of Mount Elgon in Uganda, sourced from Cahoots Coffee's first harvest. The lot was processed at the Kapyoma washing station at 1,870 meters altitude. Cherries come from farms between 1,600 and 2,150 meters and are composed of 60% SL14, 30% SL28, and 10% Nyasaland varieties. The coffee undergoes washed processing with mechanical depulping and underwater fermentation for 18 hours, followed by washing in sorting channels. This round and sweet coffee offers a mouthfeel reminiscent of fudge with aromas of vanilla and the sweetness of ripe peach.

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.
