The Journey of Endorf Mushroom Infused Coffee: From Bean to Brew

The Inspiration

Our journey began with a simple question: How can we elevate the traditional coffee experience? With the rise of the third-wave coffee movement, we recognized the potential to combine the art of coffee roasting with the science of mycology. But we wanted to do more than just create a blend; we aimed to craft a coffee that resonated with our values and ethos.

Expertise in Every Bean

Our partnership with Torrefaction Quebec played a pivotal role in realizing our vision. Their expertise in coffee roasting and commitment to free trade sourcing ensured that every bean in our blend was ethically sourced and roasted to perfection.

• 60% Guatemala Bourbon beans: Originating from the vibrant landscapes of Antigua, these beans set the foundation for our coffee. Grown at elevations between 1500 to 1900 meters, they undergo a washing process that enhances their clean, nuanced flavors.

• 40% Brazilian Catuai Rouge beans: Sourced from the Cachoeira farm in Brazil's Cerrado Mineiro region, these beans add a touch of sweetness and bold character to our blend.

The Power of Mushrooms

But the true differentiator is our innovative infusion of medicinal mushrooms. Utilizing in-house laboratories, we employ a double-extraction method to derive potent polysaccharides and antioxidants from Cordyceps and Reishi mushrooms. This intricate process ensures that each cup delivers a delicious boost and numerous health benefits.

Ethical Sourcing: A Commitment to Fairness

In collaboration with Torrefaction Quebec, we ensure that our beans are sourced ethically, adhering to free trade practices. This commitment not only guarantees the quality of our beans but also supports the livelihoods of coffee farmers and promotes sustainable farming practices.

Science-Backed Benefits

The health benefits of mushrooms, especially Cordyceps and Reishi, are well-documented. Studies in journals like the Journal of Ethnopharmacology highlight their potential in promoting overall health.
