Disloyalty 'Spresso

Perched high-and-mighty in our Single Origin Grinder sits Velton's Coffee's very fine and very sassy Panama Boquete Volcancito.

Cultivated between 1,600 - 1,700 meters, grown in the Volcancito sub-region of Boquete, Panama, this espresso is silky sweet like your first kiss. Mandarin orange sweetness resonating through its cedar depths and creamy prune finish, washing over your tongue with the rewarding witticisms of Groucho Marx. This espresso only gets better with age.

We've been pulling Velton's Panama after four days of post-roast rest, all the way until its 12th, and I've got to admit: this profile only develops, strengthens, and elongates with time. The complexity of this 'spro can be appreciated with varying experiences every day of the... fortnight.

Take it neat, or in a 4oz Americano, it'll be damn sweet. Speaking frankly, the only thing that might enhance this palette, is if Velton would give all of us his super fine Bonsai Tree Tee.


No, really. Hint-hint, Velton.
