Our Story
Built on Coffee. Backed by Standards.
Serious coffee. No ego. ’SPRO TO GO.
Our Story
XO Espresso Bar started with a simple belief: if you’re going to do coffee, do it right.
What began as a single espresso bar has grown into a brand built on quality, consistency, and community.
We’re not trying to be everything. We’re focused on doing coffee exceptionally well.
Our Coffee
We source exclusively from Aproccor, a certified Fair Trade and Organic coffee association in Copán, Honduras —
one of the most respected growing regions in Central America.
Aproccor represents a group of producers committed not only to quality, but to long-term sustainability.
Their work goes beyond coffee:
Economic empowerment
Farmers are paid fairly, creating long-term financial stability for producing families and communities.
Education
Investment in future generations supports stronger communities and sustained agricultural excellence.
Environmental responsibility
Diversified crops and responsible farming practices protect soil health and ecosystem balance.
Craft over ego
We don’t take ourselves too seriously — but we take our coffee seriously. Every detail is intentional.
Our Roasting Process
We roast all of our coffee in-house using a Bellwether electric roaster.
This allows us to control every variable of the roast with precision — from temperature to airflow — ensuring consistency across every batch.
Unlike traditional gas roasting, electric roasting produces a cleaner, more controlled environment, allowing the true characteristics of the coffee to come through.
The result is a cup that’s balanced, expressive, and repeatable.
Precision at origin.
How It's Processed
Each producer hand-picks ripe cherries and delivers them to a centralized wet mill where strict quality protocols are followed:
FLOATING
Cherries floated to remove defects
SORTING
Hand-selected for quality
WASHING
De-pulped, fermented, fully washed
DRYING
Raised beds to ~11% moisture
Coffee Meets Craft
At XO Espresso Bar, coffee meets artistry.
From micro-batch roasting to the way each drink is prepared, everything is built around craftsmanship and attention to detail.
We don’t just serve coffee. We create an experience around it.
