The seasonal Assembly House Espresso is the clearest demonstration of the value we aim to create for specialty coffee industry stakeholders, and the sincere narratives we highlight for the specialty movement. We source our House Espresso to celebrate the diversity of coffee. We source it to define what quality coffee is, and what that means to everyone involved.

By rotating the coffee throughout the year, we make accessible multiple premium coffees at competitive prices. And by working closely with the same producers over multi-year contracts, not only do we deliver consistent impact, we’re constantly refining and improving to dial in on the formula for the perfect espresso.

There are only so many farms in the world that can produce 40, 50, 60 tonnes of premium-quality coffee for a consistent, year-round house espresso. We’ve engineered the House Espresso to create value for smaller farms, enabling us to have an impact across a much wider diversity of producers and regions.

In the cup, the House Espresso is always the ultimate expression of the terroir in which it was produced. It is sticky, sweet, viscous. Its acidity is pronounced but not overpowering. It is this profile that determines every iteration of the House Espresso and is the framework within which we use the coffee to explore nuances in taste.
