Giant Steps

A Closer Look

Giant Steps is a rich organic coffee with indulgent flavors that demand reverie. We made this coffee to be enjoyed tucked beneath a cozy blanket on a foggy day — and every day that follows. Roasted dark to bring out its deep chocolate notes, this full-bodied coffee holds its own with milk or cream.

Roast Story
Named for John Coltrane’s groundbreaking album Giant Steps, this coffee’s roast profile is not unlike his visionary jazz, with smooth, chocolatey bass notes and sweet, divergent riffs.

Barista Story
The Dial In
Crafting a perfect pour over is an art rooted in omotenashi, the Japanese concept of selfless and heartfelt hospitality. Each time a pour over is ordered, our baristas — from LA to Tokyo — begin their ritual, placing a fresh filter in the Blue Bottle Dripper, freshly grinding your coffee of choice, and pouring the same pattern at the same rate they’ve practiced hundreds of times. It’s a daily dance of precision and intuition, where every cup reflects devotion — to the craft and you.
