COFFEE STORY: We’ve proudly carried beautiful washed coffees from Danche a few times but this is the first natural from the washing station. The processing on this lot is not too heavy-handed so terroir and varietal flavors still show through in layers. Intoxicating dried rose aroma appears in the cup as well alongside fresh blackberry and other tropical flowers.

  • "LIGHT" ROAST (LEVEL 1-3)

    Our focus to bring out the distinctive flavors of each coffee often lead to a very light roast level, allowing each coffee's natural notes to sing.

  • "DARK" ROAST (LEVEL 5-7)

    While you won’t find many dark roasts from Morningsong, we do offer a few coffees that lend themselves to a roast-driven profile. Even the darkest coffees we roast will have no exterior oils on them.

  • "SIMPLE" FLAVOR COMPLEXITY (LEVEL 1-3)

    Simple DOES NOT mean boring. Instead, it means that the flavor profile has a dominant single note instead of a layered symphony of notes.

  • "COMPLEX" FLAVOR RATING (LEVEL 5-7)

    Coffees with a high complexity rating will have a myriad of flavor notes that might include flowers, fruits, teas, and spices.

  • "TERROIR" PROCESSING (LEVEL 1-3)

    “Terroir” means “sense of place” and is mostly used for wine, but it applies to coffee as well. Coffees that lean toward the “Terroir” end of the scale are processed in a way so that the flavors of the cup come from the variety, micro-climate, and cultivation as opposed to the processing methods themselves.

  • "PROCESS" PROFILE RATING (LEVEL 5-7)

    Coffee rated higher on the “Process” scale undergo processing steps after picking that can drastically affect the flavor and mouthfeel. These might include sealed, extended, or altered fermentations during multiple stages as well as natural or honey processing.
