TRUISTA ESPRESSO MASABA ACRYLAMIDE FREE* COFFEE
v1.0
Regular price
$45.00
“Milk of the Mountains” is a poetic Ugandan expression for the coffees cultivated along the fertile slopes of Masaba, Mt. Elgon’s indigenous name. Shaped by the mountain’s dramatic elevation shifts, mineral-rich volcanic soils, and mist-laced forests, these beans carry the imprint of a landscape both rugged and nurturing. They lend a rich, chocolate-forward depth to this espresso blend, heavy-bodied, beautifully structured, and grounded in warmth.
This Northern Italian-style blend is the Petite Syrah of espressos, chewy, dense, and velvety. In a straight shot, it opens with silky layers of malt and chocolate, unfolding into a weighty, nut butter-like finish that leans almondine. Expect lingering notes of nutmeg on the back-end, adding a subtle spice to its enduring richness.

BREW GUIDE
FAVORITE BREWER FOR THIS COFFEE: LEVER MACHINES OR ANYTHING THAT ALLOWS FOR 7–10 SECONDS OF PREINFUSION FOR A HEAVIER BODY AND IMPROVED BALANCE.
AS COFFEE: Not recommended unless you're seeking a smooth, straightforward cup without much complexity (though sometimes, that can be a great match). Many of this blend’s defining characteristics are intentionally crafted to emerge only under the precision of espresso: finely ground coffee, high pressure, and tight extraction. When brewed conventionally, bold traits can become exaggerated and lose their balance.
AS COLD BREW: Very nice if you are looking for body and chocolate.
BEYOND THE CUP: Espresso Masaba makes exceptional ice cubes. Brew a fresh batch, allow it to cool to room temperature, then pour into an ice tray and freeze. These bold, chocolate-rich cubes elevate cocktails like White Russians, Old Fashioneds, and Irish Cream creations, adding depth and body without dilution. Straight shots of Masaba espresso are especially stunning in affogato-style cocktails, poured over ice cream, flourless chocolate cake, or even dark chocolate mousse.
BEAN BASICS FOR ESPRESSO MASABA
FOUNDER’S FAVORITE
Espresso Masaba is crafted with intention.
To enjoy it at its best, keep these tips in mind:
DEGASSING (RELEASE OF CO2): Wait at least 10 days after roast date before brewing. Brewing too soon gives green acidity and lighter body, but after day 10, the blend shines as CO2 escapes, refining acidity and depth.
STORAGE: Air and light ruin freshness. Use a vacuum-sealed container or tightly roll the bag. Store in a cool, dark place.
REFRIGERATOR: Not Recommended. Beans absorb odors and moisture, dulling flavor.
FREEZER: Not recommended. Freezers can separate oils in body-heavy coffees, thinning the mouthfeel.

I was very impressed at the flavor and smoothness.Instantly my favorite morning brew.I made both an Americano and a pour over. It was excellent.The true mark of a great coffee came when I measured 14 grams of espresso to 28 grams of liquid. The taste was excellent and the body: exceptionally smooth and silky. A healthy indulgence. Thank you for the experience!

I really love this coffee. It tastes so good. And it makes me feel good that theres nothing bad in it.
That’s the goal...coffee that hits your taste buds and your conscience just right. No junk, no drama, just pure feel-good fuel. Clean never tasted this good. 😋

Lovely it so far.The taste
Glad you love it so far...careful though, that’s how lifelong addictions start. The taste has a way of moving in, rearranging your coffee shelf, and making every other bag feel insecure.

when I got my package in there was a slice of the side of the packaging.I definitely wasn’t going to try the coffee out because idk how, when, or why that happened and it was extremely disappointing. I didn’t get to try the coffee, am upset about it because itdid smell amazing!
Oh no! That’s not the kind of “freshly opened” we aim for. We’re so sorry your bag arrived that way (and appreciate you letting us know).
Please email info@truistacoffee.com so we can send you a replacement right away — on us. You deserve to actually taste how good it smells.

Best Coffee Taste and Gentle on My Stomach!
This coffee is a game changer for me tastewise and for my sensitive stomach. It is truly one of the best cups of coffee I’ve ever had. Love the flavor, subtle chocolatey nutty butter w/hint of spice flavor I taste from my first sip that helps start my stressful days off on the right note.
Since I have developed sensitive stomach issues, I’ve struggled trying 100's of different coffees for years, but Truista’s Espresso Masaba is the one of the only coffee (low acid) that doesn't mess up my stomach.
It's my fav and I love that it’s organic, mold-free, and lab-certified. Truista has raised the bar for my level of coffee flavor expectations—so this is going to be my everyday "go to" coffee brand from now on☕️
Catherine! WE LOVE THIS REVIEW! That’s what we call a success story in a cup. We built Truista for coffee lovers exactly like you — people who want the flavor, not the fallout. Smooth, clean, chocolate-nutty, and easy on the stomach because good coffee shouldn’t come with regrets. We’re honored to be your new daily ritual. 🙏
