GREEN DRAGON'S COUNTERPART

Dark Dragon returns with the untamed depth of Costa Rica, transformed by the heat of a fearless roast. Roasted from the fresh harvest in the Central Valley, this iteration reveals a decadent union of sticky molasses and toasted marshmallow, anchored by the jammy richness of black grape. The body is immense and velvety, sweet smoke and ember from the roots of the Earth.

Available for a limited time.

The Shadow’s Spectrum

Sourced from the same revered Caturra and Cataui lots as our delicate Green Dragon, this coffee proves that a single origin holds infinite possibilities. Grown in the mineral-rich soils of the Central Valley at 1,200–1,600 meters, this harvest arrives with a density and sweetness that thrives under two extremes. While the light roast celebrates crisp, high-altitude brightness, Dark Dragon plunges these beans into the depths of the roaster. This isn’t about burning away character; it’s a deliberate alchemy that trades fleeting acidity for smoldering, enduring richness.

Embers and Velvet

This year’s roast unlocks a new expression of Palmichal Mill’s labor. The relentless heat subdues the grape’s tartness, transforming it into a lush, black grape compote that sits heavy on the palate. This fruit-forward darkness is layered with the nostalgic warmth of toasted marshmallow and the slow, lingering pull of thick molasses. With a velvet body, the cup is a paradox, fierce in its aroma yet impossibly smooth and clean in its finish. For the coffee wanderer who seeks both power and nuance, this is the dark end of the Costa Rican spectrum: the dragon’s breath lingers here long after the flame has gone.

What grind should I choose for my brewing method?
Whole Bean

Whole bean coffee is unprocessed and unground, preserving peak freshness and flavor until ground to the desired consistency for various brewing methods.

Espresso

Espresso grind is a fine, powdery grind with a texture like granulated sugar, crafted to create high-pressure extraction, resulting in a rich, concentrated shot with bold flavor and velvety crema.

Aeropress

Aeropress grind is a medium-fine to fine grind, similar to table salt or slightly finer, allowing for versatile brewing times and methods, resulting in a clean, rich, and full-flavored cup.

Cone Filter or V60

Cone filter grind is a medium-fine grind with a consistency similar to table salt, designed to optimize water flow and extraction in cone-shaped coffee makers, enhancing clarity and balanced flavor.

Flat Filter or Cold Brew

Flat filter grind is a medium grind with a consistency like sea salt, ideal for flat-bottom drip brewers, promoting even extraction and producing a balanced, smooth cup of coffee.

Chemex or Kalita

Chemex grind is a medium-coarse grind, similar to coarse sand, designed to ensure a slower extraction and clean, bright cup with pronounced clarity and delicate flavors.

French Press or Clever

French press grind is a coarse grind, with a texture like breadcrumbs or coarse sea salt, allowing for full immersion brewing and producing a rich, full-bodied cup with minimal sediment.

How fresh is your coffee?

Our coffee is roasted fresh to order and ships within 24 hours to ensure peak flavor. For optimal taste, we recommend brewing between 4 and 21 days after the roast date—this allows the coffee to degas and fully develop. After that window, it will still taste great for several weeks (or more), especially if stored in a cool, airtight container.
