Our roastery

We roast it ourselves, here in Lisbon.

Since 2024 every bag starts in our own roastery in Lisbon. We source coffee from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda and beyond through exporters and importers we work with season after season — and roast in small batches, every week.

01 Chosen lot by lot Seasonal harvests and microlots, cupped and picked by us before they reach the roaster.
02 Roasted weekly Small batches, profiled for filter, espresso or omni. Packed within three days of roasting.
03 Poured the same day What we serve in the cafés is exactly what we sell in the bag. No second-tier blend.

Amazing coffee! We had pistachio lattes and cherry lime lemonades - they were great! Absolute recommendation + their service is 100/10. The waiter was so kind and nice, made our experience even better. If you are visiting Belem, you should definitely go. ☕️🌸🦋
