Where this blend sits in the Kafejnica range.
Caligo Roast is the definitive blend for the deepest hours of your morning ritual. Roasted with deliberate patience into the second crack, it delivers a commanding, full-bodied cup defined by notes of dark cocoa, toasted caramel, and a sophisticated smoky finish.
Meticulously crafted to offer an ultra-smooth, low-acidity profile, it provides a rich and comforting depth that stands up elegantly to cream and sugar yet remains remarkably clean when enjoyed black.
Every batch is roasted in small quantities at our Temecula facility. The green coffee comes from single-farm cooperatives at altitudes between 1200 and 1650 meters above sea level, where cool nights and volcanic soil produce beans with exceptional density and character.
A bold choice for an intentional start to your day. Perfect for the drinker who takes their coffee seriously and rejects the notion that dark roast must mean burnt or one-dimensional.
Small batch, roasted to order every Tuesday and Friday.
Ships within 24h of roasting. Insulated packaging keeps beans dark and dry across destination.
Coffee is perishable. If something is wrong, we'll make it right — just reach out.
Pulls a beautiful shot. The crema is thick and hazelnut-colored, and the aftertaste of caramel lingers for minutes. Docked one star only because I wish the 1 lb bag came at a slightly better price point for how much I go through.
Eleven months in. Holds up in ways nothing else on the shelf does. Every bag lands at peak freshness. My old-school stovetop percolator has never made better coffee.
The Caligo Blend changed my morning entirely. Rich, smoky, and exactly as described.
