Currently a blend of El Roble and El Camino (a regional select from Colombia), Benchmark is the backbone of our coffee program. Robust and comforting as a drip, chocolatey and smooth as a cold brew, and with enough brightness to cut though milk in any latte.
The body is heavy.
The acidity is high.
The roast level is medium.
Autumn and Luke moved back to their hometown of Omaha in 2010 to open a small bakery, eventually buying out the coffee shop they were leasing their commercial kitchen from. They began roasting their own coffee in 2015 and now have three locations. To them, specialty coffee (and all that goes with it) isn’t so much about indulgence, but ritual–having places and moments and things in life that add value and create rhythm. Based in Omaha, Nebraska.
