Tempo Espresso
Tempo is our in-house espresso blend, built to be the foundation of everything we do on bar. Deep and chocolate-driven with a blackberry sweetness that carries through the shot, it's remarkably balanced and forgiving, easy to dial in and consistent shot after shot. It stands on its own, composed and full, and holds up just as well in milk, where the chocolate notes deepen and the sweetness comes forward. Tempo is the rhythm of our cafés.

Before you order
How fresh is Boxwood coffee?
Every bag is roasted to order at our Westfield, New Jersey roastery. We roast Monday through Thursday, and orders placed before 12pm ship the same day.
Which grind should I choose?
Our coffees ship in up to six grinds: Whole Bean, Drip, Pourover/V60, French Press, Espresso and Cold Brew. Pick the one that matches your brewer. If you own a grinder, choose Whole Bean — coffee stales fastest once it is ground.
How long does a 12oz bag last?
A 12oz bag holds roughly 340 g of coffee, which at a 1:16 ratio is about fifteen 12 oz cups. We recommend drinking it within four to six weeks of the roast date. Larger 1kg and 5lb sizes are available on most coffees.
Can I get Boxwood coffee on subscription?
Yes. We run three subscriptions — Staples for the everyday blends we pull on bar, Single Origin for seasonal lots at their peak, and Boxwood Labs for our experimental releases. You choose the size, the grind and the delivery frequency, and you can pause, skip or cancel from your account.
