Impressions
"The bahari blend is fantastic and I think it hits for different people too. I enjoyed it because it is complex and I think being medium roast makes it approachable for folks. I made it for my in-laws over a weekend and they really liked it too. It's rare to find something we can all agree on, coffee wise."
“Velvet Hour is so yum — I love using it for my home espresso drinks. It has that nostalgic vibe that reminds me of the coffee from home, which makes every cup feel extra special.”
"My favorite part about using the Hive roaster was definitely the smell — I didn’t realize roasting coffee could smell so amazing. It was such a fun experience to be around it. I also loved how small the batches are, so if you mess up a little, it doesn’t feel like a huge loss. It made the whole process feel approachable and enjoyable."
