This espresso blend combines South American and Indonesian coffees for a chocolate-forward, velvety, and low-acidity profile. It is washed processed with a Medium+ roast level. The blend features semi-sweet dark chocolate, butterscotch, and dark cherry tasting notes with a smooth, rounded body and minimal acidity. It is a four-time national award winner for Best Milk-Based Espresso at Golden Bean North America and serves as the house espresso at the Kafiex Gastro Café.
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.
