Conscientious Objector was named as a tribute to the customers who demanded certified organic coffees back when many roasters resisted their (at the time) inferior cup quality. They sent the message loudly and clearly they wanted coffee to be responsibly grown and sourced and the industry was compelled to listen. Kudos to those who lead with their conscience.
The Core is the heart of Highwire. It represents the craft of sourcing and blending components to realize something bigger than the sum of its parts. This applies equally to who we are as a company and to what we try to do with this coffee. The Core is big with red ripe fruit acidity and caramel in the mid palate and finish.
Brew: Use a scale and grind fresh. Use 16 grams of water at 200°F for each gram of coffee
