Shadow Cast House Roast
Developed by our Roaster to create a cup that “tastes like coffee should”, Shadow Cast is roasted a little darker so that your last sip is just as smooth as the first.
Our Shadow Cast house roast has a heavy body and smooth, gentle acidity. With flavor notes of Sweet Apple, Honey and Cinnamon.
Peru's rich coffee culture is deeply rooted in cooperative structures, particularly to support coffee cultivated on small farms. A prime illustration is Central de Cafetaleros del Nororiente (CECANOR), with dedicated coffee producers located in more than 70 communities across Northern Peru. These producers follow organic farm management practice attuned to their cultural connection with the land. They typically cultivate coffee on just a few acres of land intercropped with shade trees, bananas, corn, and beans.
Processing Details.
During the harvest, each producer practices selective picking with focus on picking only fully ripened cherries, which are then processed with the farms micro-mill. At the mill, the cherries are washed and floated to remove damaged and less dense coffee. The selected cherries are then depulped, fermented, washed and gently dried and stored until it is time to prepare the coffee for export.
Cooperative Activities
CECANOR invests in critical infrastructure encompassing road enhancements and the establishment of local warehouses. CECANOR also provides comprehensive technical support to farmers. This encompasses guidance starting with seed selection and extends to valuable assistance in navigating the certification process. CECANOR partners with an export company called PROASSA, which meticulously prepares coffee for export. This coordinated effort ensures traceability and maintains quality control during the post-harvest phase.
Never bitter, Shadow Cast pairs just as perfectly with your workday as it does with your weekend brunch. Start your morning with a fantastic coffee we know will cast away yesterday’s shadow and help make today brighter.
