Coffee Beans
Los Idolos Decaf, Colombia
taking its name from nearby burial sites of a pre-colombian culture, los idolos is a blend of coffees from groupo asociativo san agustin los cauchos, in the huila department of colombia. in an effort to create a decaf that matches the caliber of our regular offerings, we pre-selected coffees with a bright and sweet profile before they are sent to be decaffeinated. at the descafecol plant in manizales, the caffeine is removed using naturally occuring ethyl acetate derived from sugar cane. you'll find ethyl acetate in green coffee as well as various fruits, and it is the most common ester in wine. the resulting coffee is intensely sweet and fruited both in aroma and flavor. bananas foster and initial berry fragrance only hints at the cherry-chocolate cake in the cup.

Colombian Microlots
el renacer is not exactly a new coffee to ritual, though this will be the first time that this coffee will stand on its own. hector and fabio artunduaga own the neighboring farm to our most productive producer in colombia, omar viveros. for the last couple of years, they've been combining their coffee with omar's under the name, miraflores. with this most recent harvest, we have sought to give the artunduaga brothers their due recognition by offering coffee solely from their 6 hectare farm, el renacer, located at 1650 meters above sea level. these caturra variety coffee cherries are harvested by hand and then pulped and fermented at the nearby house. the artunduaga's are experimenting with drying the coffee initially on tables in the shade. after a few days of shaded pre-drying, the coffees are moved to larger solar dryers to complete the process. sugary and bright, with flavors of watermelon, cherry cola and brown sugar.

Los Horizontes, Costa Rica
we first met marielos and her dog coda last year on the way down the mountain to los crestones. shes the smallest contributing member to the los crestones micro mill, both in volume and in stature, but the location of her farm peaked our interest as los horizontes is located just down the hill from grace calederon jimenezs el alto. marielos grows catuai at elevations near 1800 masl and the sweetness and intensity of this coffee comes through in the cup. as a contributing member the the los crestones mill, the coffee is processed in a new aquapulper before being dried on raised beds. bright and sugary, with flavors of lemon cookie, vanilla custard and pink grapefruit.

Sweet Tooth
as a roaster that is committed to promoting our producers and bringing them out of anonymity, single origin espresso has always been important to us. whats more, the best shots of espresso weve ever had have been single origindynamic, sweet, and complex. they are balanced and complete all by themselves. throughout the year, we will be showcasing eight to twelve single producers under the name sweet tooth, in homage to our original sweet tooth blend, an anti-blend that explicitly showcased the producers whose coffees comprised it. sweet tooth will be a rotating single origin on which weve put our stamp of approval as a great shot of espresso.

About Us
Ritual Coffee Roasters opened in May 2005 with the intention to share amazing coffee with San Francisco and it was only a matter of weeks, or maybe just one, before Ritual had a line out the door. Many of our customers asked what we were doing to our coffee to make it taste so good, while the connoisseurs simply wanted to know what took us so long to get here.
