Sharing our Farm Stories with you!
We embrace direct trade, as well as sourcing sustainable coffee, which has been the foundation of our partnerships.
SAMARIA COFFEE
Café Samaria encapsulates the journey of an immigrant couple, Gerardo Escobar Mesa and Enriqueta Ceballos, hailing from Antioquia. They were hardworking individuals deeply devoted to family and their roots in the countryside. In 1932, this adventurous duo arrived in Belén de Umbría – Risaralda, a quaint town nestled in the Western Cordillera, boasting fertile soils and an ideal climate for cultivating coffee.
PINK BOURBON
HONEY PROCESS
Coffee processing methods can greatly influence the flavor and characteristics of the final brew. One such method, often referred to as the “honey process,” is a nuanced approach that strikes a balance between the dry and wet methods.
JIWAKA, PAPUA NEW GUINEA
The coffee we receive hails from the Kindeng Dry Mill, situated in Papua New Guinea’s Jikawa province. It’s a blend sourced from around 1500 small-scale farmers in Kindeng and Arufa municipalities. These farmers typically manage 1-2 hectare plots with soil primarily composed of sandy loam and loamy clay.
KINTAMANI, BALI
The exceptional quality of Indonesian green beans from the Kintamani region in Bali owes much to the region’s rich volcanic soil and unique climate. Traditional agricultural practices, deeply rooted in the Subak irrigation system and the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana, contribute significantly to this.
SJ HEIRLOOM
A meticulously crafted coffee bean designed for roasters seeking excellence. Sourced from the renowned San José estate, this coffee undergoes a rigorous selection of varietals, ensuring each bean thrives under optimal conditions to deliver unmatched quality.
What sets it apart? A remarkable sensory profile: distinct floral notes, delicate hints of jasmine, subtle tones of green tea, and a backdrop of refined chocolate, all harmoniously balanced between acidity and body.
Yirchacheffe,
Ethiopia
Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Kochere originates from familial farms that form a network around the Kochere coffee mill nestled in Kochere town and district, situated in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples’ Regional State of Ethiopia. Operated by Matewos Ersemo and his family, the Kochere mill collaborates with 650 small coffee farmers who supply their ripe cherries.
SUMATRA, INDONESIA
The SUMATRA ORGANIC BENER MERIAH MANDHELING GRADE 1 beans come from a network of family-owned farms linked with the KSU Gayo Mandiri cooperative in the Bener Meriah regency within Aceh on Sumatra, Indonesia’s enchanting island. Since its establishment in 2008, KSU Gayo Mandiri has flourished, boasting a membership of 1218 dedicated souls.
