bye bye filter and espresso roast

over the past two years we've been steadily roasting more origins in the same way, regardless of brewing method. now we came to the point all of our coffees are roasted this way and we're taking the filter / espresso roast distinction off our labels, we wanted to take you along our journey that led us to this decision.

origin: brazil

brazil is by far the biggest coffee producing country in the world. learn more about our partner bruno and his efforts to produce specialty coffee within the commodity reality of brazil.

origin: rwanda

our report about magical rwanda takes you through the incredible amount of eyes, hands and machines that coffee meets before being exported.

single, double and naked shots

at white label, we brew our espresso shots ‘double naked’. this way of brewing espresso is steadily becoming the standard in most specialty coffee cafes. so what does this brewing double naked mean, and how does it improve our daily cup?

the flavor of coffee itself is not sharp, bitter or burned. realizing that the coffee bean is actually the seed of a fruit - the coffee cherry - it is no surprise that the taste of coffee itself is acidic and sweet, and can develop many possible flavors depending on where it grows.
