Dark plum, Milk chocolate, Heavy body

Magic: Penrose blend. It’s 50% washed process from Mexico, 50% natural process from Brazil, and 100% your new best friend. We put this blend together to be good as one thing and one thing only: everything. I’ll admit that we sourced and roasted these coffees to be stellar on espresso, but the reality is that this blend is incredible as filter too. It has massive body, deep rustic sweetness, and a super approachable fruitiness that’ll remind you that yes, this is Little Owl, and yes, we love complex coffees.

We’re heading into winter and we’ve put together a seasonal chocolate bomb that’s impossible to mess up. Throw it on whatever and try to f*ck it up. You can’t. Besos.

Mexico: various smallholders

Variety:

Region: Chiapas

Elevation: 1500 - 1800 MASL

Process: Washed

Our trusty Mexico brings the darker fruit and complexity. This coffee is the product of various producers tossing their best lots in a pile and crossing their fingers. Each farm has it’s own micro-mill, managing their individual harvest and post harvest in the way that best suits their needs and their microclimate. It rules.

Brazil: Inacio Carlos Urban

Variety: bourbon, cataui

Elevation: 1050 MASL

Process: Natural.

Fam, we’ve been mad haters on Brazilian coffees for decades, and today we’re eating our words. For years, Brazil’s we’re know for low quality, tobacco-y, leather harshness. Almost undrinkable (unless you like the taste of your grandpas shoe polish) - but now, things have changed. Specialty farmers have stepped their game up, quality has been meticulous, and new processing mills have been at the forefront of ensuring only the highest grade coffees are landing on our tables. This coffee is hella sweet, super rich chocolate, raisin, and body that smashes perfectly with its Kenyan counter part. A real Bonnie and Clyde duo to entertain your tastebuds no matter what you throw it on.

The name.

Denver owes its elevated coffee scene to some of the early pioneers that set the roots of specialty coffee in this town. Our beloved blend name honors one of the individuals that was a huge inspiration and guiding light for Little Owl in its early days. We’re here because this person paved the way for us and companies like us. Dustin Fuchtman is the man, and his coffee company, Penrose, had a brief yet triumphant reign. His vision was high design, high quality, and just generally beautiful. We’re here to carry that torch. We’re here to remember that “people matter most.”
