Frequently Asked Questions
What does Onward taste like?
Bright and vibrant — citrus, stone fruit, a hint of floral sweetness, and a clean crisp finish. It tastes like exceptional light roast coffee, with zero earthiness or mushroom flavour.
Does light roast have more caffeine than dark roast?
Yes — less caffeine is burned off during a lighter roast, so Onward naturally delivers more caffeine than our darker blends. Cordyceps and Chaga help smooth that energy into something clean and sustained rather than sharp and jittery.
Is this good as a pre-workout coffee?
Many customers use Onward before training. Cordyceps is well-regarded among athletes for supporting natural energy and oxygen efficiency — paired with light roast caffeine, it's a genuinely functional pre-workout ritual.
How do I brew it?
Onward shines in a pour-over (medium-fine grind, 93°C, 3 min) but works beautifully in a drip machine (1:16 ratio), AeroPress, or as an overnight cold brew. Available whole bean or pre-ground.
How is Onward different from Lioness Espresso?
Both contain Cordyceps, but Onward pairs it with Chaga (immune support, antioxidants) in a bright light roast — best for active energy and endurance. Lioness pairs Cordyceps with Lion's Mane (cognitive focus) in a bold espresso roast — best for peak mental performance.
Do you ship across Canada?
Yes — Canada-wide shipping, with free local delivery in Calgary. Every order is roasted fresh and shipped within 1–3 business days.
