Saison
Café PistaAbout This Coffee
Saison is a dark roast blend combining coffees from Brazil and Colombia, specially designed for espresso. The Brazilian coffee is grown at 1000 meters altitude and the Colombian coffee at 1500 meters. Both coffees are picked at full maturity and sorted by floatation and hand to remove overripe or underripe cherries. They are mechanically pulped and dry fermented for 24 to 36 hours, then laid out on a patio for 7 to 10 days for slow and even drying. This classic profile offers caramel and chocolate flavor notes with a syrupy texture, particularly suited to espresso and latte.

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.
