This espresso blend is sourced from fresh-crop South American coffees and processed using the washed method. Roasted to a Medium+ level, each component is roasted separately to optimize sweetness, dissolve high-toned acidity, and build chocolate-driven depth. The coffee features layered sweetness with rich cocoa depth and a subtle citrus lift that keeps the finish clean and lively. It delivers sweet chocolate, brown sugar, cocoa, and citrus acidity in a smooth, rounded body. The blend serves as the house espresso at Kafiex Coffee Lab in Vancouver, WA, designed for consistency, clarity, and versatility across espresso, French Press, and auto-drip brewing methods.
Kafiex is a micro roastery based in Vancouver, Washington, roasting small batches of specialty coffee with a focus on microlots and competition grade lots. The company operates two downtown Vancouver locations: a Coffee Lab dedicated to roasting and tasting, and a Gastro Café serving food alongside coffee. In 2026, Roast Magazine named Kafiex its Micro Roaster of the Year, recognizing a journey that started at farmers markets and grew through international competitions. Sustainable sourcing is central to the operation, and a Coffee Club offers members curated selections, in store tastings, and exclusive sensory events.
