About Black & White Roasters
Black and White Coffee Roasters is the brainchild of two US Barista Champions. Founded in 2017, Kyle and Lem were inspired by the coffee they experienced at the competitive level and wanted to make those coffees as widely available as possible.

INTRO
The Future has been a staple of the year-round menu, showcasing excellence in anaerobic and co-fermentation processing, with flavour as the guiding principle. This Halloween release asks which Halloween candy is best, and is a love letter to the fruity treats the roasters hope to find at the bottom of a plastic jack-o'-lantern. In the cup: watermelon candy, Lemonheads, blue raspberry, and green apple caramel sucker.
THE PRODUCER
The blend combines one washed Ethiopian lot with three co-fermented Colombian lots: Aricha (40%), from smallholders in the Aricha community in Yirgacheffe; Sebastian Ramirez's Watermelon (25%) and Red Fruits (20%) from Quindío; and Huver Castillo's Aponte Florale (15%) from Buesaco, Nariño.
THE PROCESS
To re-create fruity, nostalgic flavours, the washed Aricha lot supplies the vibrant acidity associated with these candies, while the three co-fermented lots deliver fruit flavour in spades.
Blending one washed Ethiopian with three co-ferments is the defining structure. It's what gives the cup its zippy, fruity intensity, with the washed lot holding the acidity.
THE CUP
Fun, fruity, and decidedly not subtle: sweet and zippy, like the best trick-or-treating hauls, with watermelon candy, Lemonheads, blue raspberry Jolly Ranchers, and caramel apple pops.
