As our days stretch longer and temperatures climb, coffee rituals begin to shift. Steam gives way to clinked ice. Mugs are traded for tumblers. We donât stop drinking coffee in the summerâwe may even ask more of it. We ask it to cool us down, to wake us gently, to travel with us to porches, parks, and beaches. We ask for something refreshing, but still familiar. And to answer that call, weâre pleased to introduce our 2025 Ethereal Summer Blend!
Our Ethereal Summer Blend is our seasonal release created with the warm months in mind. This isnât just another coffee repurposed for iced coffees. Itâs a blend crafted specifically for the demands of summer: smooth, refreshing, and versatile enough to shine whether served cold, over ice, or steaming in the first quiet hours of the morning. While it was designed with cold brew in mindâslow-steeped, smooth-bodied, endlessly drinkableâit performs just as well as a pour-over, an iced Americano, or even a traditional hot brew.
Ethereal Summer is the product of a thoughtful marriage between two distinct coffeesâEclipse, our signature dark roast known for its rich, grounding depth, and Poaquil Natural, our lighter, fruit-forward roast grown exclusively for us by our farmer partners in Guatemala. On their own, each offers something special. Together, they form a conversation between classic and contemporary: the deep roasted and caramel notes balanced by the brightness and red fruit complexity of a modern natural. The resulting cup is layered yet familiarârefreshing, but with enough backbone to satisfy.
Behind this blend is also plenty of impact at origin. It features high-impact coffees grown in Comayagua, Honduras, and Chimaltenango, Guatemalaâtwo high-altitude regions known for their quality. The farmers behind itâmembers of the Mtn2Sea Ministries Farmer CoOp and the La Asuncion Co-Opârepresent two of our most impactful partnerships yet, as we actively champion life-changing prices for their best coffees.
For the perfect cold brew at home, start with 100 grams of coarsely ground coffee for every liter of water. Steep in the fridge for 20 to 22 hours. For those who want to extend their batchâs shelf life and extract even more flavor, try a brief âhot bloomâ before steeping: add just enough boiling water to saturate the grounds before adding the rest of the cold water. Itâs a small detail that can make a big difference, especially if youâre making Cold Brew for the whole week, or to travel with you!
Ethereal Summer Blend is more than just a seasonal offering. Itâs a reflection of the moment weâre in: a time to slow down, to savor, to chase flavor across borders and processes and brewing styles. Available nowâbut only for the Summer (i.e. until Labor Day)!
We canât wait to roast it, enjoy it, and Brew Greatness with you this Summer!
