COFFEE OF OCTOBER – RWANDA INTANGO
Since cupping this coffee back in March I’ve been super excited to get my hands on it. If I was going to turn my cupping notes into a legible sentence, it would read something like this. “A warm mixed berry pie has just been pulled from the oven and sits cooling on the kitchen bench, […]
LET’S GO TO COSTA RICA
I think, even though I’m feeling more optimistic about overseas travel happening again in my lifetime, I really want a holiday now. I know it doesn’t even begin to compare to the real thing, but they say that planning a holiday is 78% of the fun! I don’t know who ‘they’ are, but they sound […]
DO YOU HAVE AN ALTITUDE PROBLEM
I once had a customer who would come in, talk shop for an hour or so, tell me what coffee he’d been drinking lately, tell me about the best coffee he’d ever had (made it himself), would ask me if I had any beans available that were grown 2000 masl or higher, and would get […]

COFFEE OF THE MONTH: DR CONGO
In recent years DR Congo is re-emerging as a coffee origin. This is the 3rd crop we have purchased in as many years and the region is showing us what it is capable of. Many small cooperatives are now in action and working together to increase the quality of their coffee. This coffee is from […]
FIKAPAUS : MARCH EDITION
March’s Fika is all about a few things that are really great, but don’t mke a big song and dance about it. Take March for example, a shoulder month. It’s Autumn, but doesn’t have the public holidays that show pony April has, but still has great qualities. Surely. I guess it’s still kind of warm. […]

PNG Baroida AX Washed By Jess Hol I like that this estate, ‘Baroida Estate’, is named after a spirit that subsists in a large river rock. The legend goes the large rock sits in one of the main rivers flowing through the estate and has stubbornly remained in the middle of the river for as […]
BEST COFFEE TO KICK OFF 2021
