In collaboration with the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design, KALVE continues to highlight Latvia’s textile art heritage, dedicating the design of this coffee tin to the exhibition “Shelter for the Unicorn. Textile Works by Georgs Barkāns.”

The coffee tin features a motif from Georgs Barkāns’ tapestry “Teiksma” (1974, collection of the Museum of Decorative Arts and Design). Its central figure—the unicorn—symbolizes creative freedom, imagination, and a poetic alternative to everyday reality.

This collaboration holds special significance for KALVE, as it coincides with the opening of our first café in France—a new chapter defined by courage, inspiration, and openness to new experiences.

About coffee

FULL & CREAMY

This is our most recent espresso blend, tailored to fit the preference of those coffee lovers, who prefer an intense cup with next-to-no acidity. By maintaining a stable roast curve and blending highly soluble coffees from Brazil and Colombia, we achieve a profile that is reminiscent of Toffee - sweet, buttery and intense. Besides that, we feel like this cup profile, which is loved by so many, can also be an ode to people who have helped shape events in the world, which is why this coffee will always represent something or someone of importance to us.

Roast info

This coffee is roasted for espresso, meaning that it will present with higher intensity, rich texture and sweetness, lower acidity and more distinct caramelization flavours. Espresso roasts have higher solubility, meaning that you will be able to access the coffee flavours with more ease. Even though it is more suited for espresso machines and mokka pots, you can definitely enjoy it in any other method as well if you're looking for a richer cup. Espresso roasts are at their best starting from 2 weeks from the roast date, so take your time with it.

Use and storage

Brew it at a ratio of 1:2.5. For example, use 18 grams of coffee and brew 46 grams of espresso, to dilute some of the intensity and increase silkiness.

We recommend you enjoy this coffee within 3 months of the roasting date.

Store in a dry and cool place, between +16 and +25 degrees.

Sustainable Coffee Trading

This coffee's cycle from farm to your cup has been one of honesty and hard work. We source our coffees from producers that use environmentally-friendly growing practices, roast it so that it's consistently good, package it in materials that either recycle or can be refilled and deliver the coffee with emissions in mind. Sustainability is one of our core values, and the path of our coffee demonstrates that.
