🔥 Roasts and ships on Tuesdays for freshness

Ron’s newest creation is here—instant espresso crystals. Just add water or milk, give it a quick stir, and you’ve got an instant café-style drink anywhere you go. For a classic cup, mix 2.6g with 12oz of water. For a stronger brew, use 4.6g with 12oz of water. Want a true espresso shot? Try 2.6g with 28g of hot water. Add your favorite milk or milk alternative to any of these recipes for a quick latte or iced espresso. Each crystal is made from our Cortez Primo espresso, hand-pulled by Ron himself, then freeze-dried to lock in freshness and prevent oxidation. Perfect for camping, travel, or busy mornings when you need real espresso in seconds. Each package contains 20 grams of instant espresso magic.
