This coffee is a microlot from producer Evin Moreno, cultivated in the El Cedral region near Santa Bárbara, Honduras. It is a Geisha variety coffee that undergoes a 72-hour anaerobic fermentation process before being washed and sun-dried. The cup profile is complex and clean, featuring delicate floral notes and a bouquet of ripe fruit, offering a crisp and expressive experience.
Metric Coffee emerged in 2013 from a partnership between Darko Arandjelovic, formerly of Caffe Streets, and Xavier Alexander, an Intelligentsia roaster since 2009. Operating from the West Fulton neighborhood of Chicago, Metric roasts on a meticulously restored 1961 Probat drum roaster, maintaining equipment that speaks to the roastery's appreciation for craft and precision. The company's recent expansion with Milli by Metric in a century old Avondale building reflects Metric's growth while staying true to its focus on quality, consistency, and ecological mindfulness in every roasted batch.
