Rarely do we get to offer two differently processed coffees from the same region at once, but today we have that privilege.

El Salvador Malacara SL-28 and La Reforma Geisha Natural come from two different farms run by members of the Alvarez family, some of our earliest direct trade partners. Both are grown around the slopes of the Santa Ana volcano, and together they showcase the incredible diversity of coffees that can come from a single region.

These limited lots won’t be on the menu for long. Check them out at the link in our bio.

A show-stopping espresso, Colombia Cauca Castillo was originally planned to be a component of our Black Cat Classic blend. But after several cuppings, we realized this one is just too good not to share on its own.

This washed lot shines as espresso with notes of sweet orange and dried fruits. Experience the incredible taste of the Cauca region by picking up a bag from our link in bio.

Our longtime partner Mauricio Rosales was amongst a handful of producers to acquire this lot and grew it in his variety garden, Kape’tenango. Expressive with notes of blood orange, tamarind and juniper, this limited release won’t last long. Find it in our link in bio today.
