Espresso Italiano

Our coffee is roasted at 8,000 feet in the heart of the Rockies. This high-altitude process allows us to bring out smooth, rich flavors without the bitterness. With decades of experience and a dedication to sustainability, we’re proud to offer a cup that’s as thoughtful as it is flavorful.

It’s more than just coffee—it’s your companion for mornings spent watching the sunrise over the peaks or, if you're not in Vail, at least dreaming of it.

Roasting at high altitude is our secret to creating deep, rich flavors without bitterness. All based on the lower vaporization point of the deep bound moisture inside the coffee bean. The same way water boils at a lower temperatures at altitude . This allows the natural sugars in the coffee to caramelize at lower temperatures slowly, revealing layers of deep rich smooth complexity. It’s the kind of coffee that reminds you to slow down and savor the moment.

Lighter roasts are great for pour-overs, allowing the subtle flavors to come through, while darker roasts like our Bridge Street Blend are perfect for drip or French press. We encourage you to experiment and find what works best for your taste.

A lift pass is always the best gift, but when you can't get to the mountain, why not bring the mountain to you? It's always a great way to relive a special holiday, or simply to get yourself a taste of Vail.
