We're visiting the Arley family at their farm, La Piragua, located 1,800 masl in Palestina, Colombia. Produced with a commitment to sustainability and a passion for quality, we’re thrilled to be welcoming their coffees back into our warehouses.
Keep an eye out for their washed and natural Pink Bourbon and Red Striped Bourbon (a natural mutation of Pink Bourbon) on our offer list, two highly sought-after varieties celebrated for their expressive, high-quality flavor profiles.![Are you going to Porto for the coffee week?

2025 has brought another round of exceptional Ethiopian coffees to the US, Europe, and the UK.
If you haven’t yet, now’s the time to try our latest washed and natural regional lots from Sidama, Ethiopia. Think bright, clean cups with high sweetness and notes of stone fruit and citrus.![🐛 The worms have arrived! The first of 20 worm compost houses is up and running in...]()
🐛 The worms have arrived!
The first of 20 worm compost houses is up and running in Huehuetenango, Guatemala. Here’s Paula from our agronomy team overseeing the build - based on the same design she uses at home.
In 2025, as part of a Primavera pilot program, 20 farmers will receive materials and training to produce their own worm compost. The use of worm compost produces healthier soils, less reliance on chemical fertilizers, and lower costs for farmers.

This year, we’ve deepened our commitment to fair pricing tied to living income benchmarks, invested in producer training and coffee infrastructure, and explored innovative environmental practices such as worm composting and biochar production.![This is our agronomist Yeimi showcasing our demonstration of worm compost during the 2025...]()
This is our agronomist Yeimi showcasing our demonstration of worm compost during the 2025 Guatemalan harvest. Right next to our warehouse, we have a small worm box - producers delivering coffee could see the worms at work digesting kitchen scraps and coffee pulp. Yeimi has a presentation that explains what foods worms can process, how to care for them, and how to harvest the compost out of the boxes. As we begin assembling materials for our worm & biochar pilot project in Huehue, we're going to be seeing a lot more worms at work! ![Attention roasters: Colombia EA Decaf is here!

Attention roasters: Colombia EA Decaf is here! We've got a fantastic lot from Huila currently in North America and a lot from Santander in Europe. Get in touch with us for samples before they are gone! ![This photo comes from our team in Huehuetenango last week - they made the first deliveries of...]()
This photo comes from our team in Huehuetenango last week - they made the first deliveries of biochar ovens to producers in the Kanchapina community, close to Com. Ramon Pablo Chales is the farmer in the photo, and he's one of the 20 pilot farmers receiving a small biochar oven.
These producers will use the ovens to turn coffee waste into biochar, essentially charcoal. This organic product can be applied to the soil on the farm to improve soil quality and boost moisture in the soil. We'll also be working with these farmers to incorporate home-produced worm compost into the soil as an organic fertilizer!![Another snapshot from farm visits in Huehuetenango.

Another snapshot from farm visits in Huehuetenango. These small, hard green fruits will ripen and become next year's coffee harvest! Our producer partners are hard at work helping ensure that the plants are healthy and produce the best possible crop; pruning, shade management, and fertilization are all part of the work after the harvest ends.
