This one from the farmers in La Argentina & Pitalito jumps out with ripe, strong, jammy cherry filling sweetness, tangerine juice concentrate, and round apple flavors. A truly beautiful coffee we're excited to share at an incredible price, punching way above its weight class.

It’s been a while since we’ve had an African coffee on our shelves, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring one back, especially this one.

It’s not just a coffee—it’s a flavor parade perfectly timed for the dog days of summer.

I love cowboy coffee. There’s something rugged and romantic about scooping the grounds into boiling water, swirling it around, drinking it straight and a little gritty. I remember seeing my dad making it when I was a kid and I thought it was the coolest thing. But if you’re tired of filtering your coffee with your teeth, or you’re looking to level up from instant coffee, there’s an inexpensive, light, and portable way to bring your favorite Tala coffee with you on your next camping trip.

Simply put, Gatuya Factory PB is one of the most exciting and delicious Kenyan coffees we’ve tasted in the past two years.

With crystal-clear flavors of blackberry, grenadine syrup, and apricot candy, it checks every box we look for in a standout Kenya coffee—and then some.

Just one sip, and you’ll see why we’re so excited about this one. Nganzo: Kibirizi is bursting at the seams with big, sugary flavors—it’s the kind of coffee that instantly transports you to your happiest, most candy-fueled memories.

We’re beyond thrilled to share our most exciting Colombia releases to date: Mastercol. This is a small but mighty lot—a natural-processed, single-varietal coffee sourced from just ten smallholder farmers across La Argentina, Oporapa, and San Agustín in Huila. It's a rare find, a dazzling combination of history, technique, and varietal, and we only have a small amount, so consider this your heads-up not to wait on trying this vibrant new coffee.

Just like any other fruit, coffee is seasonal. There are portions of the year that coffee is being cultivated and another portion when coffee cherries are ripe for picking. Lucky for us, coffee is grown in many different countries around the world. Each country has a different harvest season, with some countries having multiple harvests per year.

Each harvest season brings with it a rush of excitement as fresh crop samples roll in, but this year, our anticipation has reached new heights—especially for coffees coming out of Colombia.

As a barista, there’s a lot more to making a great cup of coffee than just pulling an espresso shot. One of the most crucial yet often overlooked aspects is steaming milk to perfection.
