La Argentina & Pitalito: Huila, Colombia
Yet another impressive coffee from Huila, Colombia! This time it's the super exciting Chiroso varietal. 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. Kayon Mountain Farm is no stranger to our lineup, and for good reason. Quite possibly our most-loved coffee of the year, this naturally processed lot from Guji, Ethiopia, is back for another round.
San Diego Mill: Tarrazu, Costa Rica
This coffee was noticeably sweet, effervescent, and creamy. "Cherry cola Italian soda" was the experience that immediately came to mind when I first tasted it.
