35 beans

Dry, spicy and aromatic — black, white and pink pepper adding a savoury, fragrant and unmistakably peppery bite to the cup.

Pepper coffees carry a dry, spicy lift: the warm bite of black pepper, the milder earthiness of white pepper, and the fragrant, berry-like edge of pink pepper. This savoury aromatic note often appears in certain naturals, some Indonesian and high-grown lots, and fuller roasts. Pepper character adds a grown-up, spicy complexity, appealing to drinkers who enjoy savoury depth and a little heat over simple sweetness.
