Dark Roast
Inspired by Japan. Grown in Brazil. Roasted in Chicago. Brewed at Home. Sawada.
PROJECT X is an espresso and coffee blend created for Sawada Coffee and Hiroshi Sawada by Metropolis Coffee Company. Starting from samples of beans Hiroshi roasted for his Tokyo cafe, and working in secret (Code Name: “Project X”), Metropolis fashioned a blend that seamlessly recreated not just the flavor of his classic Japanese style, but also its intent. Coffee may be a simple and everyday experience, but when it’s perfect, it makes part of your day perfect, too. That’s world-class coffee culture.
We aim to create an approachable environment where everyone has a seat at the table and the bean benefits all.
With every brew, we pour our passion and expertise into designing a cup of coffee with your pleasure and tastes in mind.
All our coffee is purchased at or above fair trade price from transparent and sustainable brokers and farmers.
As coffee nerds, we have a quirky outlook sourced from the early days of science fiction, fantasy, and lore.
We used to live near sawada and used to get these in person but we moved and can't go anymore. It is awesome that we can get this online now and it is aligned with the freshest roast date - which ensures that we get fresh beans. Thank you!
My husband and I just love Sawada coffee! We got an espresso machine as wedding gift and thought to purchase their coffee beans and they did not disappoint! Will be ordering again!
Rich, smooth and flavorful!! Flavor notes are exactly as described! Great cuppa joe!!!
Can no longer live without it. The perfect complement to my new Gaggia.
Sawada coffee.My family love it.
That coffee on your doorstep? It’s freshly roasted to order—that’s the Metropolis promise.
