Coffee Description
The natural process coffees of Esperança work excellently as a syrupy sweet base for outstanding seasonal espresso blends. Full-bodied and chocolatey sweet, the Esperança blends well with almost any coffee paired with it. Adding the high notes to Bay Dreamer are the coffees from the Hunapu Producers of Antigua Guatemala. Their washed, ecopulped bourbon variety coffees are bright and citric; a pleasant contrast to the heavier profile of Esperança. Finally, giving floral and berry complexity to this espresso is the traditionally washed heirloom lot of Kolla Bolcha, hailing from Oromia, in western Ethiopia. Together, these three coffees highlight what we love in espresso - syrupy sweetness, clean fruit flavors, and amazingly complex floral aromatics!

Ritual Coffee
When Ritual opened its doors on Valencia Street in 2005, they started what many call a coffee revolution in San Francisco. Their goal then—and their goal now—is to craft the very best cup of coffee available anywhere. Period. A pioneer in the recent shift of consciousness that has defined the modern coffee industry, they’ve learned a lot over the years. Still, the care and attention they lavish on their process is unchanged as they work to bring the very best out of the coffees they painstakingly choose, roast, and deliver fresh to coffee lovers worldwide.
With 5 retail stores in the bay area and a roasting facility in the SoMa district of San Francisco, Ritual takes pride in a growing number of direct trade relationships with coffee producers around the world, working with farmers to help them improve their quality with each passing season.
