Product Information
For me, this is the real deal of the coffee world. Sourced from coffee's birthplace, Ethiopia, where it grows natively in its purist form and is still found in garden farms; growing in the wild all over this region. This delightful fruity coffee is hand-picked and sold in markets before being processed and selected at the mills. Our latest crop is perfect for all brewing methods, my favourite being a morning paper filter and this coffee never disappoints.

Local knowledge is key to finding the best coffee crops at certain times of the year. Legend has it, coffee was first discovered in Ethiopia by a goat herder named Kaldi in the 9th Century when he noticed his goats behaving erratically after eating coffee cherries from the plants This is always a top seller, consistently bought and repeatedly bought by returning customers.
For a coffee this pure, we recommend a paper filter brew…..it also pulls a mean espresso!
