Kairos is our first and original blend selected by Mike! This is the exact blend that we use in our retail locations on our espresso machines.  It is built around sweetness, silky body and a restrained acidity. Originally designed as a traditional espresso blend, we’ve found it serves very well as a drip coffee for those who prefer a simpler, smoother cup with lots of ripe red cherry. It shines with or without cream, and works especially well as a cold brew, where it’s cola and tamarind flavors come out into full blossom. The components of the Kairos Blend rotate seasonally as fresh coffees arrive, but the current iteration is comprised of a naturally processed Brazilian coffee and a washed process Ethiopian coffee.

The word kairos comes from an Ancient Greek term translated as the “right time” or “opportune moment” to do or say something!  We hope that when you drink Kairos it will help you take action!
