FAQs

Why the name Chiaroscuro Coffee?

Chiaroscuro is defined as the treatment of light and shade in drawing and painting. In art, this technique creates depth, evokes drama, and highlights contrasts.

Inspired by visits to museums and art galleries in Florence and Rome, we wanted to showcase how this technique is evident in our coffee.We create our roasts with care so that you can experience the contrasts and character that we enjoy.

Why does your House Blend change?

Every coffee-growing region around the world is vastly different. Our roasts reflect the true nature of coffee; even the same plant will produce subtle differences year to year.

We want you to explore those differences and enjoy the journey of an ever changing product.

Do you offer ground coffee?

We believe that whole bean coffee is best. This allows you to tailor the grind to your needs and gives you the freshest result.

Do you offer decaf?

We can provide decaf upon request. Please get in touch with us through our contact form for more information.
