The name doesn't say it all but it pointed us in the right direction. "Wild Beasts" is fitting. We set out to create a blend that truly represented the answer to WHY BLENDS? The answer is Les Fauves. A coffee blend that is as wild as it is unique. We are colliding flavors by blending amazing coffees with distinct processes to unlock a totally new flavor profile. Matisse decided that painting wasn't merely for depicting reality. Our Les Fauves blend is showing us that a coffee blend can be as interesting as a single origin offering while staying consistently delicious every morning.

"Costa Rica Cordillera Del Fuego is a honey-processed coffee with crisp acidity and a trail mix flavor. The Hambela Wamena is a full natural with intense berry and stone fruit flavors. The Campoalegre is fully washed with a full-bodied profile and a peachy acidity. The combination of these three processing methods add layers of personality to Les Fauves, making it truly memorable." - Marty Lopes, Roaster
