BLACK coffee is a 100% specialty Arabica coffee blend of premium beans from Ethiopia, Tanzania and Guatemala. Arabica is the most flavorful type of bean and it only grows at the highest altitudes. Ours are washed and cultivated at altitudes ranging from 1450 - 2200 meters. Using a blend ensures we can offer you a consistently flavorful coffee all year round. BLACK is a medium roast, and tastes equally delicious as an espresso or filter coffee.
WHITE coffee is a 100% specialty Arabica single origin bean, which means that it is exclusively sourced from Colombia. The beans are washed and cultivated at altitudes ranging from 1650 - 1800 meters, then medium roasted in order to go particularly well with milk or sugar.
DECAF coffee is a 100% specialty Arabica bean from Colombia, processed using the MC Process. This process is the best for conserving the fine taste
Our coffee is artisan roasted weekly in upstate New York on Mondays and Tuesdays, and every bag is stamped with the date of roasting. We send out coffee to our customers everyday from Monday to Thursday, so when it arrives it's always freshly roasted!
Roast date matters because freshness is the single most decisive factor to the quality of coffee. Unfortunately, the supermarket supply chain simply can't provide that: most supermarket coffee is months, if not over a year old! And because industrial coffee sits on supermarket shelves for so long, it's aggressively roasted (some would say burnt) to mask the staleness. That's why a fresh artisan roast offers you a whole new world of yum!
There is no right way to brew your coffee other than the way that is right for you. In fact, we created Popular.coffee in order to change the nerdy conversation around premium coffee, where there always seems to be a right and a wrong way to do coffee. We get that people don't want to change the way they are used to brewing, and it's all good with us (as long as the beans are fresh)! We have carefully selected our coffees to work well for any method of coffee brewing. And for those who are interested in learning more about brewing, message us on Instagram and we'll answer any questions you have!
Our ground beans are a medium grind that work well for for almost all of your favorite brewing methods including pour over / chemex, automatic drips, french press, moka pots, aeropress and even your espresso machine if you have a pressurized portafilter. Alternatively, if you are a whole-bean enthusiast and like grinding at home, that's great too!
Popular.coffee is sent in a premium bag with a one-way valve that allows carbon dioxide to escape but stops oxygen from getting in. If you drink your coffee in less than a week you can just leave it in the bag. If you drink your coffee over the course of several weeks it's best to store your bag in an airtight container (or the super pro version: a vacuum container with a one-way valve).
Contrary to popular belief, you should never store coffee in the fridge or freezer as this will build moisture content in your beans, which ruins the flavor.
Yes!
