Story
Savio is one of our core seasonal blends, named for the well-known activist and key member of the Free Speech Movement - Mario Savio.
The coffees are roasted to individual profiles prior to being blended for an optimal flavor collaboration. The components of Savio change multiple times throughout the year to embrace the freshest harvests available to our roasting team. However, the flavor profile goal remains the same - chocolate driven with a focus on sweetness; accented by a lively acidity and soft fruit flavors.
In comparison to our other blends, Savio will always be the most fruit forward option. But have no fear - it still performs perfectly across every brew method and every milk and sugar addition you could dream of. The current offering is a harmonious blend of African and Central American coffees - Suke Quto & Juan Rodriguez. We’re tasting: apple juice, orange peel, fig, cinnamon roll, brown sugar, baking spices, toffee, chocolate.
- 50% Suke Quto: a washed processed coffee from one of our longest purchasing relationships, Tesfaye Bekele, who we’ve been working with since 2013. Coffee from Tesfaye’s Suke Quto Farm are combined with cherries from nearly 200 outgrowers throughout the Odo Shakiso area of Guji, Ethiopia.
- 50% Juan Rodriguez: a washed processed coffee from Mataquescuintla, Guatemala. 2023 marks our second year sourcing this specific coffee for Savio, and we’re now purchasing Don Juan’s entire harvest. He’s an active member of the Cafe Colis Resistencia group that has established a peaceful resistance against an illegal Canadian-owned mining operation in their backyards.

1000 Faces Coffee is a coffee roaster, merchant of change, and voyager of the agrarian spirit. We travel to countries of origin and establish relationships with producers to ensure the integrity of our coffee. Since we opened our doors on day one, we have been working in partnership with the two most important ends of the 1000 Faces spectrum: the grower and the customer. It is this partnership that is at the foundation for real economic sustainability for not just us, but all parties involved. We believe that respect for geographic origin, direct relationships, and ecological awareness is the basis for creating a more sustainable coffee culture. Building on these principles, from seed to cup, 1000 Faces has set out to help you buy fresh roasted coffee beans of unsurpassed integrity and quality.

Full-bodied and chocolately - the only reason I didn't give this 5 stars is because the flavor profile isn't as robust as I would've liked.
