Our latest coffee is exceedingly special as it marks a new level of traceability for our offerings at Others. To achieve this we worked with Sundog Trading -- a specialty coffee importer who works exclusively with Emmanuel Rusatira, owner of Baho Coffee in Rwanda. As a result of the amazing relationship Sundog has developed with Baho, we now have access to a wealth of information regarding the cultivation of your coffee. 

To start, "Fugi" gets its name from the washing station at which it was processed. Located in the Southern Province of Rwanda, Fugi is nestled between the Nyungwe National Forest and the border of Burundi. The producer group (farmers) responsible for this coffee is made up of farmers who've been growing coffee their entire lives. Many of the contributing farmers are elderly, cultivating coffee for over 40 years. In fact, the producer group was given the name "Warakoze Musaza" which roughly translates to "thank you old man" in Kinyarwanda, as a sign of respect and homage for the age and experience of its members. 

If you think that was a lot, just know that we summarized as much as we could to make it more digestible. We sincerely hope you enjoy the unique profile of this coffee as we hope to expand our relationship with Sundog and Baho over the coming years. 

    PROCESS  Natural
    REGION Sul de Minas, Brazil
    ALTITUDE 950-1,100 MASL
    VARIETIES Mundo Novo, Catuai, Icatu, Bourbon
    We've been loving Brazilian coffees this year as they've become our go-to for cold brew and filter coffee. This particular roast is mild medium bodied with chocolatey, nutty, and citrus fruit notes. If you plan on using this coffee for a cold brew or iced pour over we recommend frothing a bit of oat milk and  maple syrup together and pouring it overtop of your drink -- delicious! 
    PROCESS  Natural
    REGION Guji, Ethiopia
    ALTITUDE 1900-2100 MASL
    VARIETIES Heirloom

     

    If you know us you know we LOVE our Ethiopian coffees. One thing we love about them is their characteristically fruity notes and this particular one is BERRY fruity *da-dum-tss*! Bad dad jokes aside, this is a delicious coffee to be enjoyed hot or cold -- we recommend an iced pour over if you're up for it. The strawberry and peach notes remind us of our favorite summer refreshments -- strawberry shortcake ice cream and peach iced tea! 

      PROCESS  Washed
      REGION Chiapas, Mexico
      ALTITUDE 1200-1600m
      VARIETIES Bourbon, Caturra, Mundo Novo

       

      Our beloved Mexican coffee has returned just in time for summer! The profile we chose for roasting resulted in a coffee that is light and complex enough for our black coffee drinkers yet bold enough to stand up to a bit of added dairy or non-dairy. 

      We taste notes of dark chocolate, lime, cranberry, and nuts—but that’s just what WE taste. We encourage you to brew your coffee the way you like it and draw your own conclusions.

      Our coffee is a regional blend from various small farmers in the Chiapas region and milled at Finca Monte Azul. Chiapas is the southernmost coffee growing region in Mexico with an ideal climate and altitude for mild and sweet coffees.
