Dark Beetle

Opening

Welcome in. This coffee explores the edge of darker roasting while preserving sweetness and the character of origin.

The Proof

Single-origin, specialty coffee sourced from a collection of farmers in Finca Santa Lucila, Nicaragua. Roasted fresh in Ojai to create this balanced dark roast.

The Cup

Deeper caramelization without overwhelming the coffee's natural character. Rich sweetness, balanced structure, and a comforting finish.

The Ritual

A coffee for those who have their heart set on a full-body, dark coffee without losing hints of chocolate and caramel. A reminder that darker doesn't have to mean burnt—it can mean intentionally sweet and balanced. Que Bonito.

The Story

When Carlos was five, his grandfather would take him to coffee farms, and his love for the coffee jungle began. He especially remembers finding big, shiny beetles that resemble a dark roast coffee, hence the name Dark Beetle.

Brewing

Enjoy as an espresso, French Press or drip. Take your time and notice how the cup evolves as it cools.
