Single-origin coffee from Costa Rica's Tarrazu region at 1200-1750 meters altitude. Processed using honey processing method. Medium-light roast with balanced flavor profile featuring caramel, honey, almond, clementine, and plum notes. Sweet, nutty, tangy, and rich with distinct acidity developed through high-altitude cultivation.
Andrew Schittone and Adriana Cabrera founded Riposo Coffee Roasters after a 2019 trip to Italy reignited their shared love of coffee. Andrew's Italian heritage and Adriana's family roots in Puerto Rican coffee farming, where her grandmother operated a farm on the island, give the roastery a personal foundation that runs deeper than most. They started roasting in their garage, spent two years building the business, and opened their first retail location in Rumson, New Jersey in November 2023. The name Riposo nods to the Italian tradition of the mid afternoon pause, and the roasting reflects that sensibility: small batch, unhurried, with both single origin offerings and a classic Italian espresso blend in the lineup.
