Single Origin

Kenya Gichathaini
The aromatics lean towards savory as the cup itself leans toward strong grapefruit and citrus. Sturdy in character, flavors are tightly wound - slowly unfolding as it cools. Lime, white wine and mandarin orange surface first, followed by guava and cherry candy. The finish lingers with a Chinese five spice flavor on the tongue.

Kenya Thiriku
Boasting an effervescent mouthfeel, the acidity sits as marmalade and lime. Rhubarb, peach and blackberries confidently create the cup while an underbelly of dark chocolate and fig bars anchor the acidity. A certain aspect of winyness surfaces with cooling, adding dimension and complexity. The finish is clean and punctuated with hints of spiced rum.

Organic Ethiopia Sidama Homecho Waeno
The aromatics of coffee blossom and violet make way for an incredibly graceful and elegant cup. The body has a light and silky quality, like fresh whipped cream, that beautifully compliments the ever-present note of citron, juniper berry and vanilla. As it cools, the cup blossoms into notes of confectioner's sugar, rosehips, and soft raisin, resonating on a pristine finish with a touch of milk chocolate.

Organic Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Dama Cooperative
Cozy, inviting and gentle - this year's DAMA features cocoa from start to finish. Vanilla and glints of toasted coconut crown a soft acidity of lemon curd and lime kool-aid. The finish sustains with notes of black mission figs, lavender and maple.

Papua New Guinea: Mt. Hagen
Boasting firm notes of tobacco leaf, molasses and walnuts - it perfectly compliments the fall season. A tangy but bridled acidity comes about as grapefruit and dried apricots.
