Alana’s Coffee Roasters
Curator’s note
Most second rooms of a roastery pour the house espresso and stop. Robertson runs the Mar Vista single origins through a filter bar instead: five of them, each named to producer, varietal, process and elevation, and not one carrying a roast date.
Alana's flagship blend of washed Colombia and washed and natural Ethiopia, pulled as the espresso shot all day.
The coffee
Roasted in house at the company's Mar Vista shop, close to daily and only from lots in season, with a light-roast lean and full producer, varietal, process and elevation detail on every single-origin bag.
