About This Coffee

This coffee is grown in the legendary Mogiana region of Brazil, the most renowned of the country's three major growing regions. The beans are mellow and warming with distinct notes of pecan, roasted almond, and sweet milk chocolate. Mogiana's reputation stems from its more manual approach to growing methods and the many smallholder producers in this area of rolling hills and uneven terrain. The coffee is balanced and medium-bodied, described as not too heavy, not too light, not too dark and not too bright.

Brooklyn Roasting Company

Brooklyn Roasting Company was founded in 2009 by Jim Munson, who previously served as VP and partner at Brooklyn Brewery in the 1990s before spending seven years as VP of Dallis Bros. Coffee. The production headquarters sits inside Building 123 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, a structure originally built in 1899 as an industrial powerplant with 60 foot ceilings and two foot thick brick walls, and it was the first LEED certified building in the Navy Yard. Roasting takes place on fuel efficient Loring Peregrine and Kestrel machines, with the output supplying wholesale accounts including Russ and Daughters, Fresh Direct, and Columbia University coffee bars. The company expanded internationally with its first Japanese location in Kitahama, Osaka in 2012, followed by a Namba flagship in 2016 and additional shops in Tokyo.
