Jot’s Spring Seasonal coffee features a single-origin bean from Peru, and it’s just what we’re vibing for spring. Floral forward, nicely balanced, with fruity notes. Jot uses a “progressive enrichment process” to extract coffee from the grounds. Nothing else is added in the process—the liquid is very concentrated coffee and water. One tablespoon of the concentrate delivers a proper cup of iced or hot coffee, and from there your options are unlimited. It’s also available in Original, Dark, Vanilla, Chocolate Hazelnut and Caramel. Price is for one-time purchase. Discounts for monthly subscriptions available.
