Caffe Vita

Caffe Vita has been the coffee of Seattle's independent music and arts scene since 1995, roasting by hand on Capitol Hill in a building splashed with a massive colorful mural, right in the heart of it all. Farm direct sourcing pioneers, hand-roasting on vintage German machines, certified organic, and with a barista champion leading their coffee program. They now operate roasteries and cafes across Seattle, Brooklyn, Portland, Los Angeles, and Phoenix. Vita takes the business of coffee very seriously. You, the audience, should simply be enjoying yourself. In the cup, expect a seasonally rotating lineup with serious range: chocolate-forward blends, bold espresso, and sweet single origins from up-and-coming origins like Congo, Uganda, and Mexico alongside the classics. Start Here: Caffe del Sol, the flagship blend that put Vita on the map in 1995 and hasn't looked back since. Milk chocolate, caramel, and dark cherry, with a silky amber crema and sweet finish. Impressive in every brew method, but especially magical as espresso.
