Origin & Craft

Small-batch roasted, deeply rooted in direct relationships.

We partner directly with family-run estates across Antigua, Huila, and Yirgacheffe. Every Tuesday and Friday dawn, we fire our 6kg cast-iron roaster to celebrate each terroir’s sweetest profile.

Direct-Trade Premiums

We pay an average of 45% above Fair Trade minimums straight to millers and harvesters, funding soil regeneration and clean-water processing stations.

02

Micro-Batch Profile Curves

Roasting in tiny batches allows us to highlight floral jasmine notes in Ethiopian wash lots and stone fruit sweetness in honey-processed Centrals.

03

Freshness First

Never poured past day 14 from roast. Peak degassing ensures velvety crema and vibrant, transparent filter extractions.
