We recommend buying the quantity you need, storing it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, and grinding it just before preparation.

It is a one-way packaging system that allows carbon dioxide released from freshly roasted coffee to escape without letting oxygen in. This enables coffee to be packed immediately after roasting. As a result, our coffee remains fresh until you use it. Once opened, coffee beans stay fresh for about one week. We recommend that ground coffee is consumed on the same day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n\n                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                                    <div class=\"\"\n                                >\n                                <button type=\"button\"\n                                    x-on:click=\"openRow = (openRow === 2 ? null : 2)\"\n                                    class=\"text-body flex w-full items-center gap-x-4 py-5 text-left text-lg font-extrabold lg:text-xl xl:text-3xl  rounded-tl-[60px] rounded-tr-[60px] transition-all duration-300\"\n                                    :class=\"openRow === 2 ?\n                                        'bg-primary text-white' :\n                                        'bg-cream text-primary rounded-bl-[60px] rounded-br-[60px]'\">\n                                    <div class=\"justify-between flex w-full px-5 md:px-20\">\n                                        <span class=\"flex items-center pl-6 md:pl-0\"\n                                            >\n                                            What kind of grinding should I use?\n                                        <\/span>\n                                        <div class=\"relative flex items-center md:gap-[44px] md:pl-[44px]\">\n                                            \n                                            <span\n                                                class=\"hidden md:block absolute left-0 h-full w-[4px] bg-white rounded-[80px]\"><\/span>\n\n                                            \n                                            <span x-cloak\n                                                class=\"rounded-[30px] flex justify-center items-center px-4 sm:px-[30px] py-3 sm:py-[18px] border text-white bg-primary\"\n                                                :class=\"openRow === 2 ?
