If you've been looking at trying some of the more delicate washed Ethiopian coffees but don't want to leave the punchy notes behind, this is the coffee for you.

Each selection is a carefully curated work of art, pushing the boundaries of what coffee can be. This Black Honey Mossto Enigma Hops from Edwin Norena embodies the innovation and excellence that define our Heady standard. This Colombia Black Honey Mossto Enigma Hops from Edwin Noreña is pure coffee magic refined yet explosively flavorful, sippable all day but totally unforgettable. We're talking lemongrass, coconut, red currant, and those wild effervescent herbals that'll make your taste buds do a happy dance. Edwin's Sudan Rume cherries were hand-selected at peak ripeness, then treated to carbonic maceration with a splash of Enigma hops for that one-of-a-kind vibe. The result? A coffee that's as much art as it is craft.
