Lightly Buzzed
25% caffeinated
Low dose, long glide - 25-25 mg per 10 oz cup
Brewing Guide and How it's made?
Ideally, use paper-filtered drip or similar to trap the LDL-raising oils and keep your caffeine earlier in the day; skip or limit unfiltered methods if LDL is a concern. Brew ratio 15:1.
We create each level by mixing washed, high grown, arabica coffee with naturally decaffeinated washed coffee (chemical free sugarcane method) to a specific percentage.
It's craft coffee, calibrated.
What level is right for me?
If you’re new, start at 50% for smooth focus, then nudge up or down. Sensitive to caffeine or chasing better sleep? Try 25% or 0% in the afternoon. You can also sample the spectrum with our starter kit and find your rhythm fast.

Whole bean coffee is unprocessed and unground, preserving peak freshness and flavor until ground to the desired consistency for various brewing methods.

Aeropress grind is a medium-fine to fine grind, similar to table salt or slightly finer, allowing for versatile brewing times and methods, resulting in a clean, rich, and full-flavored cup.
