This espresso blend is inspired by Northern Italian coffee traditions. It features low acid, natural process coffees from Brazil and Ethiopia with some washed coffee to enhance sweetness. The blend is roasted more slowly and kept on the lighter side of full city roast for a full, mellow fruit sparkle and sweet flavor. It is recommended to be served ristretto using a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio of coffee to extraction.
Café Moto was founded in 2012 by Jason Weis in San Diego, California. The roastery operates a Diedrich IR 12 from its location, producing bright, clean profiles that highlight origin characteristics. Weis sources through direct trade relationships with farmers and importers, focusing on single origin coffees and seasonal offerings. The café serves espresso, pour over, and retail beans, and the business supplies wholesale accounts across San Diego's restaurant, café, and hotel scene. Café Moto also hosts public cuppings and education events as part of its involvement in the local specialty coffee community.
