From Huila to LAX
LAX is where the day ends in golden light over the Pacific, and this coffee is built to taste like that hour: bright, sweet and easygoing, a cup for long mornings.
It's grown by smallholder farmers in the hills of Huila, Colombia, then washed and dried before export. A blonde roast keeps the fruit up front, so you taste honey, citrus and ripe apricot rather than roast.

Frequently asked questions
Is a blonde roast stronger?
Not in caffeine. A blonde roast tastes lighter and brighter than a dark one, and a scoop of it has about the same caffeine, slightly more. For a stronger cup, use more coffee.
How should I brew LAX?
Pour-over or drip at 1:16 with water just off the boil, 200 to 205°F, shows off the honey and citrus. It also makes a bright, fruity iced coffee.
How fresh is it?
It's roasted within days and shipped fast. Keep the bag sealed, away from light and heat, and grind just before you brew.
Is it whole bean or ground?
Whole beans only: coffee stays fresh longest when you grind it right before brewing. Our coffee-to-water ratio guide shows the grind for each brewer.
How much is shipping?
US shipping is free on orders of $49 or more, which is any 3 of these bags. Smaller orders ship for a flat $6.95.
