☕ What Makes a Limited Lot Coffee So Special?
Speciality coffee isn’t just about quality beans — it’s about traceability, rarity, and transparency. These coffees come from select micro-lots that showcase distinct flavour profiles and the craftsmanship of producers around the world. Unlike standard offerings, limited lots are roasted in very small batches to highlight unique characteristics in flavour and aroma.
