LIGHT WORK
Our latest offering is light, bright, and ready to take your morning (or afternoon) to a new height! Arriving just in time for spring, this sweet, floral, and fruity coffee from the Limmu Kossa Estate embodies everything we love about Ethiopian coffee.
Family-owned since is founding in 2000, Limmu Kossa utilizes a complex system of agroforestry to maintain biodiversity while lessening the impact that climate change may have on their crops. In addition to employing over 700 people at the height of its harvest, the Estate has also helped to build several school rooms for their community.

The Limmu Kossa is also the first edition to our new labeling system. "Light Work" was chosen for our light roast coffees for it's ability to make heavy workloads a little less heavy. The coffee won't do your work for you but it will make it easier.
GET RIGHT
Another new edition to our 2024 coffee lineup is a lovely medium roast from Brazil. One thing we appreciate about this particular Brazilian coffee is its ability to perform in many different circumstances. Like to drink your coffee black? -- Delicious. Like a bit of oat milk? -- Slaps. Pulling shots of espresso? -- Boom sha-ka-latte.
Parceiros do Cafe, or "Coffee Partners" in English, brings in coffee from four different farms spanning the Minas Gerais region of Brazil. Apostolo Simao, Mato Cipo, Fazenda Furnas, and Boa Vista all contributed lots from their farms to create a reliably complex and clean cup.

ZZZCAF
You asked and we listened! We're proud to announce the latest addition to our growing coffee line up -- ZZZCAF! All the fun and flavor of a great single origin coffee without the "ahhh why am I still awake at 12am!?" frustration. This coffee is a delightful medium roast that features a sweety, syrupy texture with notes of honey and milk chocolate.
Our first decaffeinated option is a washed Swiss Water Process* (more on that in a moment) from Cajamarca, Peru. The coffee was exported by Perunor -- a company that helps increase market access to farmers who lack the means to sell their products internationally. In addition, Perunor also helps farmers become Fair Trade and Organic certified, which this coffee is.
*Swiss Water Processing is chemical-free and organic method of removing caffeine from coffee. The coffee is soaked in a green coffee extract solution for a period of 8 hours and then repeatedly passed through charcoal filters until the 99.9% of the caffeine has been removed. SWP gets its name from the country in which it originated, Switzerland, in the 1980s.
