Karina and Marcus Luscher established Salto Coffee in 2012, roasting at 8,200 feet elevation in the mountain town of Nederland, Colorado. Karina is the primary force behind roasting operations, making Salto a woman run specialty roastery with a distinctly high altitude perspective on the craft. Production runs on a Diedrich IR 12 paired with Cropster software, and head roaster Rob Langone conducts origin trips to stay close to farming practices and sourcing decisions. Their lineup includes signature blends, seasonal single origins, and limited reserve lots, all roasted in small batches. Salto was a finalist for the 2024 MTPak Coffee Packaging Design Awards, with bag designs that draw on the mountain landscape surrounding the roastery.
