LITE BITE. BIG FLAVOR.
Crafted for early mornings, easy afternoons, and iced coffee season, Lite Bite is our lightest roast and one of our most versatile coffees. With crisp citrus notes, soft caramel sweetness, and a roasted hazelnut finish, this blend offers comfort in every sip.
Whether you're new to specialty coffee or know your way around a pour-over, Lite Bite is an approachable, all-day option with a balanced flavor that works anytime.
Behind The Blend
Lite Bite is a curated blend of African and Central American coffees, roasted just long enough to mellow acidity while maintaining the vibrant, high-quality taste these origins are known for.
The African components bring high-toned florals and citrus while the Central American coffees ground the blend with buttery caramel and soft nutty undertones. The result? A dynamic profile that’s both easy-drinking and full of character.
