Tasting notes Milk Chocolate · Vanilla · Toasted Hazelnut The coffee A natural lot from member farms of Coopama, a cooperative of around 3,600 families in Machado, Sul de Minas. The cherries are dried whole with the fruit still on the bean, letting the sugars in the fruit carry into the seed — building sweetness and weight rather than acidity. We take this one further in the roast than the rest of our range, a true medium, which brings the cocoa and toasted nut forward and lets the sweetness sit underneath. Full-bodied, low in acidity, and steady with milk. On the name Every Milkweed coffee is named for a milkweed butterfly — one of the family raised on the plant we're named for. The Olena (Aeria olena) is the quiet exception among the clearwings: while its relatives moved onto nightshades, olena stayed with the milkweed family, its caterpillars feeding on a latex-bearing vine in the semi-deciduous forests of Brazil's interior. Unshowy and easy to miss until you're close — a fitting name for the coffee we expect people to reach for most often.
