Welcome to the bean shop!

Lucienne operates like a winery/cellar—carefully tasting, packaging, cataloguing, and preserving each [coffee] on your behalf right here in Colorado. This is a major understatement and honestly sounds much easier than it actually is.
Partner coffees are rested for 7-14 days, individually vacuum packed in 100g increments, catalogued, then placed in a deep freeze (-18°F) until ordered by you.
All coffees are delivered in freezer-safe, flat vacuum bags with integrated, resealable zippers.
We taste every single bag of coffee we purchase blind before listing them for sale to ensure quality remains high. We do not discount or sell rejected coffees. (Sorry. These end up being my husband and I’s morning cups.)
We specialize in forgiving, un-finicky, stunning coffees meant for special occasions, coffee nerds, or just treating yourself.
Over time, we hope to build quite the catalogue of both new and legacy offerings no longer available anywhere else.

We restock and release new coffees every month on the 15th @ 12PM Mountain Time! (That’s 2pm Eastern, and 11am Pacific)

Before you read on, we do offer espresso-specific roasts, if that is what you’re looking for!
Most Lucienne offerings are roasted with filter preparation in mind, unless noted otherwise. This is the easiest, most forgiving, most reliable method to taste these coffees with minimal fuss and waste on your end.A skilled barista can certainly dial these in for espresso with amazing results as well. We see it all the time.
However, for most customers, we generally don’t recommend this due to the size of our bags at 100g each. We believe most baristas need at a minimum 3-4 pulls to approach a decent shot, and by then you may or may not have enough for a 5th. Because the quantity is low and the price is high, it just doesn’t make economic sense, and we’d hate for you to end up wasting so much coffee.
Of course, this is the case with any coffee, and can easily be solved by purchasing more than one bag... In other words, like most things, this problem can be solved with money. But this economy is tough.
ALL THAT BEING SAID, I know there are a bunch of you espresso maniacs out there who will do it anyway. I won’t stop you from your fun. :)

Josh’s Notes:
Super cool coffee. Reminds me of iced barley tea in the fridge during the summer. A truly beautiful cup of coffee that manages to be special without being overtly fruity. Takes on a nostalgic quality if you come from a certain background that consisted of big plastic jugs of barley tea in the fridge and oscillating fans in a house without central air. One of my favorites.
We also carry its espresso version, Koke Natural Heirloom Espresso Roast.

Roasted light and spectacularly by our friends at Glitch Coffee and Roasters in Tokyo, Japan, rested for 7 days, then vacuum packed and frozen. I recommend enjoying this coffee right away.
Josh’s Notes:
Insane coffee. For many, this crushable summertime coffee is the gateway drug into more exciting, finely processed coffees with big flavor. Almost universally loved by all, even non-coffee folk!
Finca Milan has developed plenty of new and innovative processing protocols, and this lot features their unique nitrogen fermentation process. It results in a caturra that is sparkling clean with incredibly clear notes of cantaloupe and watermelon. I really mean it. It smells like a cantaloupe bomb and tastes like watermelon juice. Also great in milk based drinks- it ends up tasting just like a melona bar!
Glitch’s Notes:
From Colombia's Milan Estate, one of the hottest coffee farms in the world and used by finalists in the Barista world competition, comes a coffee with an innovative process.
The Milan Estate is located in the Andes Mountains of Risaralda province, where hot springs and volcanic soils extend from 1,400 to 1,800 meters above sea level. It produces a wide variety of micro-lots along with crops such as platanos (green bananas), corn, and beans.
The process for the coffee that will be introduced here is as follows: after the cherries are harvested, sorted, and pulped, the coffee is transferred to tanks for fermentation in the parchment coffee state. Nitrogen and yeast are added to the tanks, and the coffee is fermented for four days under strict temperature control. Fermentation is further accelerated by the addition of nitrogen. The coffee is then washed with water and allowed to dry naturally for approximately 20~30 days.
This coffee is characterized by a variety of fruitiness that overturns the concept of coffee.
Melon, Guava, Strawberry, and Watermelon, reminiscent of a fruit basket, can be enjoyed very much as the temperature changes and ages.
Roasted light-medium and spectacularly by our friends at Glitch Coffee and Roasters in Tokyo, Japan.
