sholi blend is a medium-roast omni coffee from coava coffee roasters, combining beans from ethiopia and colombia. the two origins work together to produce milk chocolate and caramel alongside a brighter citrus zest edge that keeps the cup from feeling flat or heavy. because it sits at medium roast, it holds up well across brew methods, whether you're pulling espresso or brewing filter. for espresso, aim for a balanced extraction around 25-30 seconds. for filter, a medium-coarse grind and water around 93-94°c will let the chocolate base and citrus clarity both come through without tipping into bitterness.

common questions
