Roaster notes
"Leftist has been the daily espresso for our baristas for over 20 years – can you blame us for being obsessed with it? It's made of complementary single origin coffees that tell a consistently unique story through any extraction method. When dialled in by an espresso craft expert you'll find nuances of dark chocolate, cherries and warm baking spices. That said, expect sweetness and balanced flavors no matter how you brew it, it's a very approachable blend."
Roaster
They took a pioneering approach to sourcing coffee through a relationship model, placing emphasis on direct trade as a way to support thriving livelihoods for producers at origin. They earned Roast Magazine's prestigious 'Roaster of the Year' award in 2013, are home to the first barista union in the USA and are currently transitioning to a worker-owned company. Gimme! Coffee roasts all their coffee on two Probat drum-style roasters at their facility in Ithaca, NY.
