More about our coffee beans
Our beans are a collaborative creation with smallholder farmers, the Farmers Society, and our trusted partners in sourcing exceptional coffees. Our partners in all our selected farms, who cultivate diverse crops alongside coffee, take great pride in their coffee production. The wet mills in our production regions are consistently produce high-quality coffee, attracting farmers with premium prices. We carefully select coffee lots that meet our standards for taste and sustainability. The coffee cherries undergo a meticulous process at the farmer-operated factory. After harvest, they undergo 16-24 hours of dry fermentation under closed shade for optimal flavor development. The cherries are then washed and graded in channels to select the finest beans. To enhance their characteristics, the beans are soaked in clean water for 16-18 hours, allowing them to absorb moisture and develop a bright and delightful sweetness.
OUR SELECTION PROCES
Each batch we receive is carefully curated and roasted to perfection by our expert team of roasters, ensuring consistency in quality and flavor. Before reaching our customers, the beans are meticulously checked by our cuppers in the cupping room, where each profile is evaluated for excellence. We take pride in working with micro-batches of unique beans, allowing us to bring truly one-of-a-kind coffee experiences to Europe and beyond.

It does, however, enjoy a little extra love and care, including fertilization.
