New beans: You don’t hear about coffee from Zambia very often, and certainly not one that’s also undergone additional processing!

This is a single-farm grown coffee from Kateshi Estate, and it’s a wild one! We kept it light to highlight the fruit punch notes, and you might want to even try making an iced coffee out of this one for a nice sweet and fruity brew. We tasted passion fruit and pineapple as the dominant notes, as well as a very bright acidity.

We were able to secure a lot more than usual of this one compared to prior limited releases, so we expect to have it in the shop for the next two months or so.

Come grab a bag and enjoy!

NEW COFFEES ARE FINALLY HERE!! Sorry for the late evening update, today got off to a rough and icy start but all FOUR (yes, FOUR!) new coffees have been added to the website! More detailed descriptions will follow in the next day or two, but the processing info and tasting notes are there!

Welcome to:
COLOMBIA TOLIMA: Dark chocolate, caramel, orange

PERU CHONTALI MTNS: Chocolate, almond, citrus

RWANDA NOVA STATION: Milk chocolate, berry medley, smooth

ETHIOPIA GORI GESHA: Orange, caramel, silky

As you’re all aware, big snow is here! My kids’ school already cancelled, and the timing of the storm unfortunately hits on our first roasting day of the week.

Just wanted to put it out there that roasting might be delayed until either late Monday or Tuesday, so all online orders will be delayed a bit as we play catch up.

Stay safe out there everyone, and see you on the other side!

Low stock alert!

We’re sad to say goodbye to our RWANDA beans from Baho Coffee. We just roasted our final batch last week on Thursday 2/12/26 - a few bags are available online, and the rest will be in the shop until it’s gone! We’ve got a natural process bean lined up to take over once we’ve sold out, more info on that soon!

Following closely behind will be our BURUNDI. We haven’t found a replacement for this yet, but we still have about 15 lbs or so left, so we’ll likely be doing our final roast of that this coming week - if you loved it, grab a bag asap!

COLOMBIA & PERU are winding down, but still available for a few more weeks. Can’t wait for you to taste the Peru replacement - we have it in house and the sample batch is tasting amaaaaazing. So. Good.

Coffee Updates Feb 2026!!

We’ve been a little quiet here, and maybe you’re wondering why? Well, simply put - change is in the air! Just by coincidence, we’re running out of a bunch of our coffees around the same time. We don’t have tasting notes on all our new offerings yet (some of them haven’t arrived yet or we’re still sampling!), but here’s our coffee update:

LOW STOCK ALERT

BURUNDI: We’re down to the last 10 lbs, so you can only order 12 oz or 1 lb sizes until this is depleted! We don’t have another Burundi lined up, but we are looking for one because this was a sleeper hit.

RWANDA: Just like Burundi, we’re down to about 10 lbs! Only 12 oz or 1 lb size available for ordering until we run out. We do have another great offering from Rwanda lined up to take over - a natural process from a woman-owned co-op and mill with lovely chocolate, raspberry, and winey notes to it!

COLOMBIA: We’ve cracked into our last sack of this mainstay, so we’ve got enough to last about another month max. We’re still sampling replacements, so expect an update once we have one locked in and on the way.

PERU: Unfortunately, we didn’t love the fresh samples from this co-op, so we’re shifting elsewhere for our next one. We’ve got enough to last through the end of the month probably, and we have a new Peru enroute as we speak - tasting notes to come as we get into our test roasts.

VIETNAM: We’re roughly one third the way through our Vietnamese Anaerobic Natural Arabica, so we’d advise grabbing/ordering it in the next week or two if you don’t want to miss out!

COMING UP: An Ethiopian Anaerobic to replace the Vietnam, and some micro-releases (20 lbs or less!), and maybe even a new bean from an origin we’ve never sourced from before??? Stay tuned!

Give a warm welcome to our FIRST-ever offering from Vietnam! This is an arabica natural process bean that underwent addi...

Give a warm welcome to our FIRST-ever offering from Vietnam! This is an arabica natural process bean that underwent additional anaerobic fermentation after harvest - so expect those fruity notes to come out swinging!

We tasted strawberry jam, vanilla, and pleasant floral notes. If you’ve been a fan of our recent Ethiopian anaerobic beans, this is right up your alley. We’ve got a bunch of bags available in the shop today, and this will be online by this afternoon!

We never know what Mother Nature has in store, but it’s looking more and more likely that we’re going to get buried in snow this weekend. We roasted extra beans on Thursday, so we’re well-stocked for our usual Saturday hours 9-4. Stop on by and grab some beans so you’re not left without magical bean juice at home (you’re going to need it to shovel yourself out!).

That said, any orders placed online over the weekend will likely be delayed, as we’re not sure that we’ll be able to roast on Monday like we usually do - stay tuned for updates this weekend.

THANK YOU and Happy New Year! 2025 was a rollercoaster - we’re hoping for a much smoother 2026 in the coffee world and beyond. Rather than rehash all the nonsense from this past year in this post, let’s keep our eyes looking forward.

A few quick updates:

SUMATRA: We’re already kicking things off with a bang! Pictured above is our first coffee shipment of 2026, which just got dropped off an hour ago: fresh Sumatra! This will be hitting the website and shop shelves sometime next week once we’ve done our sample batches and gotten the roast profile locked in.

COSTA RICA: We sold out of Costa Rica a few weeks ago, so we’re happy to announce a fresh crop that we just finished test-roasting over the past few weeks. It’s another natural process Tarrazu from the same farm and mill, and is roasted to a similar level as the last one. We’re tasting notes of dark chocolate, with a smooth honey-like body and some nice strawberry accents. This will be in the shop tomorrow (Sat 1/3/26) and online sometime this weekend.

ETHIOPIA ANAEROBIC YIRGACHEFFE: Just an FYI, we have already sold through HALF of our shipment of this coffee! If you’re really loving it, we’d recommend grabbing a bag in the next week or two before it sells out.

NICARAGUA: Sold out! We won’t be replacing this one, as it was a bit of a slow mover.

COLOMBIA & PERU: Down to our last bags of each of these, so the hunt is on to replace them both. We’ve tasted a few really good Peru contenders already, stay tuned for more info soon!

NEW / LIMITED BEANS: We’re still stocked with our Holiday Blend, and we just rolled out our latest funky Ethiopian Yirgacheffe (an anaerobic process natural). Aaaand we’ve run out of Decaf Peru, so we’re happy to announce a new tasty light/medium Swiss Water Process Decaf Colombia!

We’re open until 4pm today (Sat 12/20), and our last retail day before Christmas is next week Wednesday 12/24 (Christmas Eve).

Stop in today or Wednesday, or place your order online by Monday 9am for Wednesday 12/24 pickup!
