Product Overview
Product Overview

Sure, green coffee is our specialty. But we also roast two delicious single-origin coffees every other week, as well as a limited amount of darker roasts for espresso. Each bag of roasted coffee is weighed to 1 FULL pound, not some chintzy 12 ounce bag! We roast every other week, and all orders must be received by 3:00pm PST the night before in order for us to account for your order in our roast batches.

Farm Notes

Origin & Farm Notes

Kapchorwa was one of the highest elevation stations we visited on our 2025 visit, and sits right around 1950 meters above sea level. Most of the coffee they buy is from high elevation zones by proximity, and the quality of cherry selection and parchment caught our eye. They currently have around 1000 farmers registered with the station, allowing them to track granular details about things like quality delivered, farmer payments, and outreach. Farmers in the region grow a mix of varieties, with SL-28 being quite common, along with SL-14, Costa Rica 95 and Catuaí (many are supplied by the owners of the washing station). This is a honey process coffee, meaning they forego traditional fermentation, leaving a thin layer of fruit mucilage intact with the seed during the drying stage. Honeys often express deeper body and muted acidity, although the latter isn't true here. We found the light-medium roasts had a well articulated acidity, though toned down a bit when roasted to darker levels (Full City or darker).
