From the roaster

We're thrilled to announce our first canned coffee! After many years of development and countless test batches, we are excited to share this delicious cold coffee with you. We know we're heading into fall, but If you're headed out on the water, going camping, or want an easy and quick way to enjoy some cold brew at home, this is the solution!

For this batch of 1000 cans, we chose our Ethiopia Yabitu Koba, a single-origin staff favorite with a crisp acidity and notes of melon and peach. Our friends at Arete brew the coffee to our specs, then it's flash-chilled, canned, and tunnel pasteurized. It's crisp and sweet, and has a medium-heavy body that holds up well to milk. It's shelf-stable and keeps for a year, but we recommend enjoying it fresh and cold straight from the can or over ice.  We love it with some maple (Jay's syrup of course!) cold foam in a rocks glass, shared with a friend.

Context

Sourced from the Yabitu Koba region, this Ethiopia Flash-Chilled Coffee represents a focused selection from Ruby Coffee Roasters. Coffees originating from the Ethiopia · Yabitu Koba area are frequently celebrated for their vibrant, fruit-forward profiles, which often lean toward stone fruit and melon characteristics. When evaluating these specific notes of melon and peach, it can be helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the nuances of sweetness and acidity present in the cup.

Flash-chilling is a brewing technique designed to lock in volatile aromatics immediately after extraction, preserving the delicate qualities of the roast. By cooling the coffee rapidly over ice, the process aims to maintain the clarity and brightness inherent in high-quality Ethiopian beans. This 4-pack offering provides a convenient way to experience the distinct regional character of Yabitu Koba in a format optimized for immediate, refreshing consumption.
