Irving Farm x Bread Alone: Early Riser

To welcome the fall and new school year, we’re introducing a custom blend coffee collaboration with Irving Farm: Early Riser. This coffee is decidedly drinkable–an approachable medium roast that pairs deliciously with our pastries and savory menu. These will be the beans behind our signature coffee across our three cafes, and will also be available for purchase in whole bean bags in Boiceville, Rhinebeck and Woodstock.

Irving Farm

Our longtime partner, Irving Farm, has supplied our coffee for many years. Like us, they have roots in both the Hudson Valley and New York City. We appreciate their attention to detail, high quality, freshness and sustainability. We partnered closely to develop the perfect Bread Alone blend–approachable, sweet, rich and balanced.

Early Riser

A mix of two beans, this blend is three quarters Colombian and one quarter Brazilian. It’s a sweet and rich coffee chosen and roasted for a taste profile that complements bread and pastries. The beans are sourced from co-ops who prioritize sustainability and a fair return for farmers.

The Colombian beans come from Monserrate, which is a coop in the Huila region. Irving Farms provides a fixed price for their coffee, helping contribute to a farmer development fund that the co-op uses for investing in long term sustainability projects such as wastewater treatment systems for their micro-mills.

The Brazilian beans come from Sancoffee, a certified B-corp co-op in Minas Gerais, Brazil. They won the 2024 SCA Sustainability award for climate work in their community.

Stop by any of our cafes to try Early Riser, or grab a bag to grind and enjoy at home. Happy caffeinating!
