Caffè in grani, tostatura media, New Day Coffee - 12 oz - UNITÀ SINGOLA

The 4,340-foot altitude really comes through — this is smooth and rich with zero bitterness, even when I accidentally over-steep it. Knowing it's grown by indigenous tribes in the Sierra Nevada makes my morning cup feel a little more meaningful too.

The bag says medium roast but it brews up with a real depth that surprised me—smooth with no bitter bite, even black. I grind it each morning and the aroma alone makes the whole kitchen feel like a slower start to the day.

Finally, a medium roast that actually tastes like the altitude it's grown at — bright but not acidic, with that earthy sweetness you only get from mountain-grown beans. I ground a batch for my morning pour-over and the aroma alone made me slow down and enjoy the ritual again.
