ABOUT OUR TAG* ROAST
With over four decades of expertise in green bean selection, roasting, and cupping, our TAG Roast (Torrefazione Artigianale Granito) is crafted to bring out the fullest potential of each single-origin coffee. Through a meticulous roasting process, we achieve the complete caramelization of the sugars in the beans, unlocking their rich, complex flavors. This artful transformation relies on the perfect balance of expertise, passion, intuition, and the keen insight of our Master Roaster.

ABOUT THE PLANTATION
These coffee beans originate from Penas Blancas located in the central region of Nicaragua.
Grown on a plantation that has existed for 70 years, the estate allows 670 families to work both during the harvest season and during the off-season. Today, many households still very much depend on coffee production.
Coffee was introduced to Nicaragua in the mid-19th century on the Pacific coast. Coffee being the country’s largest exported product, growers work passionately and systematically to improve their infrastructure and farming practices.
