It is roasted to a medium level, offering a balanced profile suitable for various brewing methods.
Handlebar Coffee Roasters was founded in 2011 in Santa Barbara, California, by Kim Anderson and Aaron Olsen, both former professional cyclists who discovered the city while racing in the Amgen Tour. The roastery operates a German built roaster alongside a Probat L12, sourcing directly from Colombian farmers and through trusted importers like Royal Coffee. Anderson, who won the 2009 Route de France Feminine, brings the same discipline she applied to elite athletics to the roasting process. Handlebar is a roaster built on the principle that the care you put into something, whether a race or a roast, determines the result.
