Coffee Description
This Nicaraguan offering contains all the aspects of washed coffees that we have come to know and love - a light bodied cup accompanied by a sweet lime acidity with a delicate but balanced caramel sweetness. Very clean, and very delicious.

About Gustavo Blandón of Nicaragua
We had the pleasure of meeting the producer, Gustavo Blandón and his wife Betty Ann a few months ago when they were in the area visiting. Gustavo, originally from Nicaragua, attended TCU in Fort Worth where he and Betty Ann originally met. After a visit back to his home country, they decided to take over Gustavo's family coffee farm and eventually opened their own import/production company in South Texas as well. We are honored to be able to serve coffee from their farm, and love that they also have strong ties to Texas!

Voltage Coffee Project
The first chapter of Voltage Coffee began at 114 West Oak Street in 2014. The goal was to combine our love for the city and good coffee in a unique cafe on the Denton Square - Some place warm & inviting, a coffee shop for Dentonites to call their own.
Roughly a year after opening the doors at West Oak, we started down the path of roasting our own coffees. We focused on forging relationships with hard-working farmers across the globe that pushed the boundaries of biodiversity, business ethics, and flavor innovation. Though we have since rebranded under the Voltage Coffee moniker, our initial mission remains the same – Explore the experimental frontier of coffee and bridge the gap from farm to cup, building trust and friendships along the way.
With a few years of shop ops & roasting under our belt, we were ready to open our second & third concepts - Kimzey's and Trinity Street. One was a cafe with character inspired by Olde English cottages - The other sought to bring third wave coffee and cocktails to the hardworking people of small town Texas. Our vision is to open unique brands in every city we venture into, and we're grateful that the communities of Argyle & Decatur have welcomed us as their own.
In 2020, we moved our roasting equipment and offices to Decatur at the Roastaurant. Now, at the dawn of 2022, we've rebranded West Oak Coffee Roasting to exist under the name of our parent brand, Voltage Coffee. Our hope is that Voltage be known as the undercurrent of quality & stamp of approval on every project we touch - whether it's a bag of coffee or a new cafe concept.
We collaborate with farmers, roast coffee, and open unique concepts — All with the sole focus of creating community.
