Nocturnal

A Cozy Cup for Night Owls and Early Birds

Named for the owl that stays awake all night, Nocturnal is back, featuring coffee from the Triunfo Verde Coop in Chiapas, Mexico. This year’s single-origin washed coffee is smooth, sweet, and quietly cozy, with a medium roast profile that brings notes of devil’s food cake, graham cracker, and crisp pear to the cup. Brew it for a late-night bonfire, an early morning, or anything in between.

Produced by the Triunfo Verde Coop in the Chiapas region of Mexico, Nocturnal is a washed coffee offered by Peace Coffee. The washed process, which involves removing the fruit flesh before drying the seeds, is often utilized to highlight the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean.

In the cup, this selection presents a profile characterized by notes of devil’s food cake, graham cracker, and crisp pear. These descriptors fall into distinct categories on the flavor wheel, ranging from deep, cocoa-toned sweetness to bright, orchard-fruit acidity. Because this coffee is processed using the washed method, it offers a clean, focused expression of its Mexican terroir, providing a balanced experience that bridges the gap between rich, dessert-like undertones and a refreshing, crisp finish.
