What makes Devoción coffee special?
SS: We are the only coffee roaster that roasts only fresh green coffee beans; the industry standard for specialty coffee is around 6-month-old green beans. Our standard is 10-day-old green coffee beans freshly roasted, thus, we are the only farm-to-table coffee roasters in the world with, by far, the freshest coffee. The Rule goes like this: Green coffee lasts about 15 months before it goes stale. Roasted coffee lasts about 15 days before it goes stale. Ground coffee lasts about 15 minutes before it goes stale.Coffee is fresh produce, and its enemies are oxygen, light, heat, and moisture.
