Frequently asked
What is specialty coffee?
Specialty coffee is coffee that scores 80 or higher on the Specialty Coffee Association scale, with a focus on origin transparency, roast craft, and dialed-in extraction. In practice it means the cafe takes the bean, the brew, and the menu seriously.
How is specialty different from a cafe?
Specialty designates coffee that meets a defined quality standard, usually with a single origin or carefully-blended bean and a trained barista. A cafe is a more general term for any coffee shop, regardless of whether it pours specialty grade beans.
