It awakens us through a morning ritual, inspires us to new ideas, and invigorates our palates with its complexity. At Relevant, we believe coffee can offer something event better: the power to bring people together. It makes connections between the places we live and links the people who live in them, making the world smaller and inspiring new ideas one cup at a time.

✨ Jose Uribe Lasso Pink Bourbon - Thermal Shock

THIS is the coffee our whole team keeps reaching for right now.

It’s expressive, sweet, and well rounded. Think POG juice, mango, and lychee right from the first sip.

El Diviso, founded by Jose Uribe Lasso in Huila, Colombia, is one of those names that carries weight for a reason. What started as a 1.5 hectare farm has grown over 29 years into a 17-hectare operation now led alongside his sons who have been producing some of the more experimental coffees we’ve tasted in the past few years.

This lot is 100% Pink Bourbon, a variety known for its intense aromatics and flavor and is processed with a lot of intention.

Open-air fermentation → 48hr anaerobic dry fermentation → mosto and water fermentation → thermal shock → carefully dried.
The attention to details in the processing is on display in the final cup as clarity, structure, and layered sweetness.

We didn’t plan this launch well, but it’s already moving fast and likely gone in the next couple weeks.

Available online and on cafe shelves. Don’t miss it!

🍀🌈 THE MF LUCKY MATCHA 🌈🍀

Tomorrow we’re releasing a very limited St. Paddy’s Day drink and it’s just *a little* unhinged.

We steep oat milk in marshmallowy cereal until it becomes full-blown cereal milk magic. Then we combine it with vibrant matcha, float cold foam, and crown the drink with edible marshmallow treasure.

THE MF (Minor Figures) LUCKY MATCHA

🍀 Available 3/17 until the marshmallows disappear.

Swing by before or after the Hough Parade (kicks off at 12pm on Main Street) and grab one while it lasts.

Fair warning: this tastes just like Saturday morning cartoons and good luck.

ANNIVERSARY RELEASE ✨
Rwanda Rambagirakawa — Washed + Natural

For our anniversary month, we’re delighted to share two expressions of the same beautiful coffee from the Rambagirakawa women’s producer group in Rwanda.
Both coffees come from the Musasa Washing Station in Rwanda’s Gakenke District (North Province), grown at 1600–1800 masl and composed of Bourbon variety.

Same area, same harvest, same variety with two different processes that highlight how processing shapes the cup.

WASHED
Some of you may remember this coffee from last year. This year’s expression is showing vibrant fig and raspberry notes with a smooth green tea character that ties everything together. In the cup we find fig up front, raspberry lingering long in the finish, and green tea settling through the middle. The result is juicy, smooth, and beautifully clean with purple-fruit sweetness.

NATURAL
The natural process reveals a deeper, rounder profile layered with blood orange acidity, raw honey sweetness, black tea notes, and delicate florality. Compared to the washed lot, this version is more syrupy and enveloping, wrapping the palate with complex sweetness and depth.

We’re grateful to celebrate the work of the Rambagirakawa women’s group with these coffees during our anniversary month. 🖤

Available now in the café and online.

Nine years of Relevant ☕ 🎈

On March 11, 2017 we opened the doors to a tiny 425 sq. ft. tasting room in Uptown. No investors. Every fixture hand-built. A lot of long days, a lot of belief in ourselves and our neighborhood, and a hope that our community would make space for our small hospitality company.

You did more than that, you made this space home. What started as a ‘hole-in-the-wall’ with room for a just a handful of guests turned into the café and roastery we get to share with you today. The friendships, conversations, regulars, and sense of belonging that grew here have always meant the world to us. We’re endlessly grateful for this community that keeps showing up, year after year.

To celebrate 9 years, we’re keeping it simple:
☕ Complimentary drip coffee (any size) on March 11
🛍 BOGO 50% off retail coffee bags all week in café
👕 20% off Relevant merch + select retail goods
🥫 $5 off cold brew can 4-packs

If you’ve ever grabbed a coffee, met a friend here, worked from, or made us a part of your routine, thank you for being part of what we do!

We hope to see you this week!

With gratitude 🖤

We’re not being subtle about it.

Tomorrow at 11am, we’re throwing a Minor Figures Oat Milk Happy Hour and the first 50 oat milk drinks are on them.

We made the switch to for its cleaner profile and silky texture that lets our coffee shine… and now you get to taste it for free.

Show up. Order oat. Be present.

Fine print: Each drink recipient must be physically here to claim it.

See you tomorrow, 2/25 at 11am!

Tonight we hosted a Seasonal Drink Competition featuring our new oat milk partner, and WOW 💥

The creativity. The care. The drive of our team.

As we officially make the switch to Minor Figures oat milk later this week, we wanted to put it to the test the best way we know how:
☕ Flavor
🎨 Creativity
⚡ Bar flow

Every drink had to be balanced, executable, and worthy of a spot on the menu.

We tasted. We provided feedback. We scored. In the end, we crowned Tessa the winner and her seasonal drink will debut on our Spring seasonal menu later in March.

We’re making the move to Minor Figures for its cleaner profile and silky texture that lets our coffee truly shine. Less mouth coating thickness, more coffee/drink flavor. Exactly how we like it.

Now let’s talk drinks that our team presented:

🍓 Strawberry Chantilly Iced Matcha
🌹 Raspberry Rose Coffee Soda “Rosy Cheeks”
🌸 Rose Cardamom Latte
🍋 Key Lime Pie Iced Latte “Minor Keys”

Spring energy is was clearly the theme! Watching our team push each other, refine their ideas, and care deeply about what ends up in your cup is what makes Relevant so special.

If one of these drinks made it to the menu, what are you ordering? Better yet, which one needs to happen immediately?

HEATED RIVALRY seasonal menu is headed into overtime. 🔥🏒

We heard you loud and clear:
You came back for seconds.
You brought friends.
You asked us to make more pars.

We all felt the love, so we’re giving this menu a few final days before the buzzer sounds for real.

Here’s the lineup until we run out:

🍒 Hollander — ginger ale, house jamaica syrup, cherry cold foam, hibiscus dust.

🥃 Lily + Jane — White Russian–inspired cold brew with Canadian maple, house cold foam, black walnut bitters, smoked maple flake salt.

🍁 The Cottage — Canadian maple, espresso, steamed milk, cinnamon graham dust.

If you’ve been meaning to try one, this is your moment. Overtime won’t last long.

Thank you + for these gorgeous photos and to each of you for sharing the joy this menu has brought to you!

HEATED RIVALRY seasonal menu is heading into the third period and ends this Sunday. 🏒

This is your final weekend to step onto the ice with Hollander: our ginger ale dirty soda featuring Canada Dry, house-made jamaica syrup, cold foam, and hibiscus dust. Crisp and tart, wrapped in a soft sweetness.

Some may call this drink simple… but it’s anything but boring.

And this Sunday (2/22) we’re closing it out the right way:
🌮 brunch pop-up
⏰ 10am–2pm
🥤 Heated Rivalry menu ends that day

If you’ve been meaning to try the full lineup, this is your sign. If you’ve already had one… you probably need one more.

See you at the rink, we’ll ready to transport you to the Cottage. 🔥

Introducing: Bogalech Dukkale ✨
Guji, Ethiopia
Suke Quto, Shakiso, Guji
2000–2200 MASL | Natural Process

Single-producer lots from Ethiopia are still relatively rare, but thanks to evolving export structures and the long-standing vision of partners Sookoo Coffee and Osito Coffee, coffees like this are becoming possible.

This lot comes from Bogalech Dukkale, a 48-year-old mother of six and third-generation coffee farmer in Guji. She and her husband steward four hectares of land that Bogalech inherited from her parents. In past years, coffees from producers like Bogalech would be blended into beautiful community lots. To experience her harvest on its own is something uniquely beautiful.

This is the highest elevation coffee we’re currently offering, grown between 2000–2200 meters above sea level and that altitude truly sings in the cup.

Though naturally processed, this coffee presents with remarkable clarity, reminiscent of a washed Ethiopian. We’ve experienced beautiful jasmine florality alongside a complex cup structure: bright citrus acidity layered with smooth pineapple and melon-like sweetness. The cup feels almost tea-like in its delicacy, finishing with long-lingering, clear florals.

A complex and expressive coffee that our team is excited to share.
