Our espresso is the Espresso Medici blend. It is sweet, fruity and nutty with a caramel butter finish. Preparation is of utmost importance to us. Our espresso machine is a La Marzocco FB 80 (3 group). We pull 1.5-2 oz of espresso at 24 to 26 seconds in 18 gram baskets. Espresso machine maintenance is a high priority, which is why we back flush at noon, evening, and a deep clean at night. This ensures that espresso residue does not build up and taint the product.
All our coffee is French pressed and served at optimal temperature. Our daily house coffee is the Spicewood 71 Classic blend. It is a well-balanced and classic coffee. We will also press any of the single-origin whole-bean coffees we have for retail. Our selection of single-origins usually includes 5 to 7 sustainable, direct trade coffees.
Coffee education is very important to us. We invite all coffee lovers to share our pursuit of excellent coffee by participating in cuppings at the store and by attending various coffee events in this region. In this way we hope to promote interest in the specialty coffee industry and heighten appreciation for all the hard work that goes into creating a truly remarkable coffee.
We strive for the highest quality in every cup.
