This is a 100% Colombian from South Tolima, with the poised balance and gentle brightness that classic Colombian coffees are known for. Roasted as an espresso to be enjoyed as a straight shot, or in your barista style drinks. It's sweetly bright and balanced, with creamy tasting notes of orange and milk chocolate. It is produced by Cafisur Co-op who supports projects that have improved the social and economic conditions of their community.
Our coffee employs over 100 hardworking Canadians, from sourcing the beans to selling the finished roast.
The I.XXI coffee journey:
If you are purchasing a bag of whole bean coffee on our website, you can select your grind method of choice (at no extra charge!) from the dropdown and we will grind and ship it to you. We grind the beans freshly for you at our warehouse in ECS Coffee Burlington right before your order is shipped, and reseal the package to maintain optimal freshness in transit.
If you are visiting us in store, you can also request for your beans to be ground in store before you take them home.
We use a commercial BUNN Burr Grinder to grind the beans.
Please note: Freshly ground coffee is non-refundable and not returnable. To ensure that you receive a ground coffee that is consistent with your brew method of choice, refer to our Grind Chart below!
FINE |
For use with espresso machines. Fine coffee grinds will have the size and feel of sand. |
MEDIUM FINE |
Choose a medium fine grind if you are brewing with a Moka Pot, stovetop espresso brewers or an Aeropress. |
MEDIUM |
Cone Filter - We use two medium settings depending on your brewer. The Cone Filter medium setting is a bit finer, and is suitable for pour-over drip brewers (cone style) such as Hario, Melitta, Clever. It is also used for cone style automatic brewers. Flat Bottom Filter - This setting is suitable for coffee machines with a flat bottom basket filter, such as commercial automatic drip machines. It is also an appropriate setting for if you have a refillable coffee capsule for use in Keurig® machines. Medium coffee grinds will be around the same size as sea salt. |
PERCOLATOR |
If you are brewing with a percolator, the grind setting is a bit coarser than your standard medium grind, to minimize grinds making it through the filter. We use a percolator-specific setting on our grinder. |
MEDIUM COARSE |
Vaccuum brewers, Chemex. |
COARSE |
For french press, cold brew coffee. A coarse grind is very chunky in look, like crushed peppercorns. |

Superb taste, aroma and cream for brewing espresso in my Delonghi Perfecta. Also makes an excellent drip. My search is FINALLY over! Thank you ECS staff Etobicoke for walking me through the selection process.
Good quality
This was the first time I've tried beans that weren't from Costco. Very delicious and was nice to explore something new.
It's my favorite go to espresso bean for making cappuccinos
As a long time customer this espresso bean is on my top 10 list. Especially good fo a pour-over
Excellent I only use beans on the weekend and pods during the work week. I look forward to having 1 or actually 4 of them on Saturday and Sunday
Consistently good
Without splurging big bucks this really hits the spot
I tried it as part of the I.XXI Whole Bean Espresso, 3 Pack Gift Box and this was my favorite one out of the 3. Not the best I ever tasted. I still prefer Detour and 49th Parallel but it's very decent and dials in nicely!
This is my best pick! Well balanced, very fresh.
Since buying this for our new BREVILLE last year, it has become our new favourite. Smooth. Never bitter.
This came as a free gift, but is exactly our style of beans. Makes a great espresso!
This coffee is exactly what I have been looking for. It's dark and chocolatey with just a hint of brightness. Overall, nicely balanced, great flavour, and consistent quality. It makes for a nice espresso and has enough strength to stand out in milk-based drinks. Love it.
i am a newbie to espresso. This product was recommended and it is very pleasing. As an extra bonus, Christina spent time teaching me about espresso basics. Thank you.
Nice but price
Fluctuations are unreal
Lovely cup of coffee. Thanks for the recommendation!
great taste
Rich and satisfying. Worth trying.
A well balanced blend that brings out the natural sweetness of the beans.
Exactly what I was looking for!
Love the coffee
Best thing about this is that its roasted on premise. Smells so good and tastes really good.
Very nice flavour.
Went in with no expectations. WOW delicious. Definitely purchase again!
You know one of the few innocent pleasures left to a man in middle life, is a great cup of coffee. A very nice expresso.
Great tasting coffee. Seems on the mild side but good.
It is our favourite espresso bean! Our baristas agree. It has a great flavor profile, smooth and forms a wonderful crema. We love it!
Very nice and smooth, if you prefer Colombian, this is for you!
Very nice, not bitter or acidic
Great bean for my machine
It’s ok but not as good as the red eye
