This coffee is grown in the coastal foothills of Carpinteria, Santa Barbara County, California, at an elevation of 60 meters. It is a Red Catuai variety that undergoes a sophisticated yeast-inoculated washed process, where specialized yeasts are introduced during controlled fermentation to enhance fruit sugars and clarity. This light roast offers a sweet and complex flavor profile, reflecting the unique microclimate of Southern California. It is recommended for pour-over brewing and benefits from a rest period of 3 to 5 weeks after roasting.
Founded in 2023, Strait Coffee is a small-batch, single-origin micro-roastery in San Jose, dedicated to highlighting terroir through clean-air, fluid-bed electric roasting.
