A very nicely balanced cup of coffee. A little hint of acidity upfront providing some floral and soft fruit at the lighter roasts, balanced with a semi-sweet nutty chocolaty factor. Super light roasts risk a little grassy/herbal but it straightens out at a city+ (medium) and holds up as dark as you want to take it. The darker you go, the more body and edgy chocolate the cup will pick up, once you hit 2nd crack, expect some smoke and roasty tones to compliment the nutty/chocolaty factor.

A great light to medium roast coffee. Delicate, balanced, clean, fruity and sweet. This is not a ferment bomb, the natural tones are delicate and well balanced, not hitting you over the head. An easy drinking lighter roast coffee: sweet, smooth, hints of lemony floral acidity and soft fruit, balanced with a defined chocolate like tone. Good body and mouthfeel, medium to low acidity. A more exotic cup that everyone will love. Medium roasts will start to roast the fruitiness out of the cup but still leave it very sweet, accentuate the body and mouthfeel.

Great from light to dark; this is the fruitiest of the two lots with higher than average acidity for Brazil, highlighting some citric & red fruit like tones in the cup, sweet and a bit more wild. Comparatively to many Anaerobic Naturals, this cup is milder and much more balanced with traditional coffee tastes. Fruity but not crazy ferment & boozy. Lighter roasts show a fruit forward cup, sweet edged, just a hint of lemony acidity with a slightly nutty finish. Shines at the light/medium roast points but tasty from light to dark. As one pushes the roast darker, it builds stronger nutty tones and starts introducing hints of semi-sweet chocolate in the aftertaste, a bit smoky if you get too close or into 2nd crack. Retains hints of the fruitiness throughout the roast spectrum but more in the background/after-tastes with medium to dark roasts.

New Lot/Crop! Regular Price $8.99/Lb
This is one exotic coffee even for natural fans. A wonderful example of strong anaerobic fermentation, but keep in mind, strong fermentation is not for everyone. A high rated, super complex cup: fruit, booze, spice, oak, nut, cocoa. Best served at the light to medium roast level. Sweet edged, fuller bodied with a creamier mouthfeel and unlike most naturals, it’s fairly low acidity. Nothing can quite prepare the tongue for the tastes on strong natural processed coffees, but if your a fan, do not miss this one. Very complex cup and not as overly fruity/winy as the open air natural. The lighter you roast, the more wild this cup gets. If you want to lean the cup towards the fruity and sweet tones, keep it on the lighter side. For very complex darker tones, boozy rum like spice with oaky complexities, a strong medium to borderline dark roast is the way to go.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.99.$7.79Current price is: $7.79.$8.99/lb$7.79/lb -

New Crop/Lot! Regular Price $8.59/Lb
This is one exotic coffee even for natural fans. Best served in the light to medium roast range. A bit milder than the last lot but in the same ballpark. Pretty winy, fruity and floral upfront with a bit of acidity, balancing with a chocolate & spice like undertone, kind of similar to Indian coffees except with all the wild and sweet ferment and fruit notes upfront. Lighter roasting accentuated the red wine like attributes, hints of citric with a very fruity edge: sweet, oaky, nutty, a little boozy in the finish. Medium roasts tame the cup a bit, still plenty winy and fruity but presents a smoother, less wilder version of the lighter roast points. Spice notes clearly pop out in the medium roast level starting to give some spiced rum like tastes in the background. Darker roasts really bring forth the sweet rum like spice notes balanced with a molasses like darker tone and a fuller body.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.59.$7.39Current price is: $7.39.$8.59/lb$7.39/lb -

A crisp, clean and semi-exotic Colombian! Great at light to medium roasts but works light to dark. Light roasts themselves are fuller bodied and pull good balance between a sweet citric/floral upfront and a semi-sweet rustic chocolate undertone, hints of nuttiness in the aftertaste. Great mouthfeel at the lighter roasts and clean tastes. Medium roasts turn the cup more chocolaty and robust. A hint of buzzy acidity in the medium roast range but hardly citric, great depth to the darker toned cup. Would consider it a smooth and rich cup until one hits the darker roast points. Dark roasts are smoky and roasty but very chocolaty and semi-sweet.

A wonderful very clean and smooth, sweet edged Colombian. Great from light to dark, our favorite was a nice medium roast, pulled the best balance between light and dark tones and was super easy to drink. A very chug-able cup. A little hint of nuttiness showing its Colombian roots, but all in all the cup leans more towards chocolate like, a hint of a soft fruit tone at the light to medium roasts which adds good sweetness without being too acidic. Good body and fairly low acidity. Darker roasts will get more robust and semi-sweet, but if looking for strong and dark, we would look at the other Colombians. A wonderful daily drinking cup!Price:Price: Original price was: $7.49.$5.99Current price is: $5.99.$7.49/lb$5.99/lb -

We thought it best within the light to medium roast levels. Jazzy citric acidity, a little floral some would say, a hint of soft fruit providing a sweet edge along with some wonderful darker toned balance, on the walnut/almond side. Light roasts themselves will be a bit citric, the cup is very clean and handles the roast level well, but needs a longer setup and a tongue that doesn’t mind a bit of acidity. Medium roasts are great daily drinkers and promote a little hint of caramel in the nuttier cup profile, retains just a pinch of citric acidity upfront but it really helps with the depth of flavors. Good body with a smooth mouthfeel. Dark roasts were equally as tasty but it loses the cool crisp citric, and soft fruit, that shows at lighter roasts. Full bodied with stronger nutty and chocolate like tones, a bit of roastiness but it compliments the cup nicely.

Regular Price $7.49/Lb
A lovely, crisp, and clean, not overly fruity natural processed. We thought it best right around the medium roast ballpark but will make fans lighter or darker depending on your personal taste preference. Lighter roasting is a bit higher acidity, lemony and floral with some grape skin like fruitiness coming through. A bit more herbal spice right at first crack, needs a longer setup time to shine but will provide delicate chocolaty notes with much wilder acidity and fruity tones. Medium roasts were tasty without the wait! Balanced, tasty, and clean after 24 hours. A pronounced chocolaty factor, medium bodied, hints of crisp acidity backed with a little soft fruit tone and spice. Wonderfully smooth and delicate for a Congo coffee. Dark roasts were tasty right off the bat as well, roasty and stronger but with a sweeter then average edge. The smokiness does compliment the strong chocolaty undertones.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.49.$6.29Current price is: $6.29.$7.49/lb$6.29/lb -

To see this cup shine, light to medium roasts are the way to go! Medium acidity, lighter bodied, delicate, sweet cup with strong red fruit tones (strawberry like). Hints of citric and floral jump right out with the fruitiness. Pulls some balance with a little nutty/tea like tones at lighter roasts giving it some awesome depth. Holds up well as one pushes towards second crack, turns the nutty/herbal tones into a rich chocolaty factor with fruity highlights. A bit rougher of a dark tone close to the dark roast mark, touching or into second crack, but everyone still liked it. Touching or into second crack gets a bit bitter with more of an oaky barrel aged tone than sweet red fruit.

A very sweet and fruit forward bean. Clean cup, medium to full bodied with higher acidity. Light to medium roasts are where this bean will shine. Being a brighter natural processed it has some great sweetness and a stronger winy/citric and red fruit tone upfront, which balance with classic Costa nutty and slightly chocolate like darker tones. A fun bean to play with roast level: tip the scales either lighter and fruitier or darker toned nutty/chocolate like. Very light roasts (with a longer setup) can introduce a little toasted grainy note giving a comparable to jellied toast like tastes, but with a lemony citric kicker. Medium roasts build great body and mouthfeel, cut out much of the citric but still overlays the nutty & chocolate like tones with a wonderful and sweet fruitiness. Darker roasts are strong and have a bit of bittersweet contrast. It keeps the sweetness and will still be slightly fruity, but contrasts with stronger bakers chocolate (slightly bitter) like tones with some roasty/smoky accents.

New Crop! Regular Price $8.69/Lb
Best from the lighter side of a medium roast to as dark as you want to go. A bit cleaner tasting but slightly less fruity than previous seasons. Lighter roasting presents some nice honey processed features: citric, floral, soft fruit with an almost oak/peat like finish, sweet & complex but does risk some underdeveloped tones if you nail it a little too light. Medium roasts were our favorite, still balanced and complex but will develop the traditional chocolate and smoky tones for which Dominican coffees are known for – to balance out those more exotic fruity and citric tones. Darker roasts are a little more complex than on the washed processed version, but not as smooth and rich.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.69.$7.49Current price is: $7.49.$8.69/lb$7.49/lb -

A very cool, very exotic cup of coffee. One can tell this is a slow dry natural processed coffee with its strong ripe red fruit tones upfront. Lighter roasting presents a ton of floral and fruit with an almost oak/peat boozy finish, very sweet with just a ton going on but does risk some underdeveloped tones with its two-toned roasting. Medium roasts were our favorite, still plenty wild but develop enough of the chocolate and smoky tones – which most Dominican coffees are known for – to balance all those more exotic fruity and citric tones. Darker roasts will burn out most of what distinguishes this cup, the washed processed handles those roast level much better; interesting and still exotic but strong and edgy, it will retain some fruity factor with very strong and less sweet, smoky, tobacco and bakers chocolate type notes.

Crisp, clean and sweet; this super fresh Ethiopian cup is a bit punchier. A bit of raised acidity and stronger tastes. Light to medium roasting recommended but a tasty cup from light to dark. Lighter roasts will have some decent brightness, lemony with just a pinch of peachy like fruitiness. The aromatics are wonderful, floral with some awesome hints of classic Ethiopian jasmine. The lighter tones pull some balance with the classic tea (herbal/spice) like darker tones. Medium roasts really mellow out the acidity and reduce the citric & floral tastes, creates a bit more body and a much more recognizable chocolaty factor.

This Ethiopian cup is a super clean; an awesome and unique example of a high end Ethiopian. Best served at the light to medium roast levels; jasmine aromatics with wild more lemon/floral acidity, balancing with a rustic chocolate and tea like spiced undertone. There is a little hint of fruit in the cup but its pretty faint, gives the cup great sweetness and depth of flavor. Reminiscent of a Yemen or Harrar coffee. Lighter roasts will have some citric acidity and stronger floral tones balanced with a faint tea like chocolaty undertone, a little fruit note pops out as the cup cools. Medium roasts really mellow out the acidity and promote the chocolaty cup profile, adds a little jazzy spice note in the aftertaste. A very smooth, balanced cup with exotic highlights.

Fantastic example of an Ethiopian Natural. Keep this one light to medium roasted. Too dark and the awesome crisp and clean fruit/floral notes disappear. A mellow cup on the sweeter side with nice darker fruit tones popping right out. The cool natural tones balance with a tea like spice note, a sign of its roots, Yirgs are known for their more tea like dark tones. Many would call it a chocolaty undertone with a jazzy spice note but we like the tea reference and most will agree. A bit more delicate of a cup with a little lower acidity. Depending on what you like this can be a real perk, fruity and sweet without risking high acidity or overly sour tones at the lighter roast points. A little easy to roast out the fruitiness, so don’t let it get too dark!

A lovely coffee from light to dark with a medium roast being our favorite, a staple offering on our list, great stuff every year. This year the cup is a little less acidic and fuller bodied, small hints of fruit at lighter roasts but more about the chocolate and spice notes. Light roasts are clean with a little citric upfront, a small hint of a sweet berry note comingling with an almond like nuttiness and a bit of tea like spice in the aftertaste. Medium roasts brought a fuller body and more chocolate like tones, lower acidity, uncovered a bit of floral upfront, lingering spice in the aftertaste. Darker roasts complimented the cup, a little more rough and tumble but a strong chocolate and spice profile many will love, good for cold brew or espresso.

Light roasting will have some acidity, tastes will start with a sweet citric/winy crispness upfront and balance out with a malty/nutty/caramel darker tone, a hint of soft fruit in the aftertaste. A lovely balance of tones and our favorite roast point. Medium roasts reduce the citric/winy tones and soft fruit, promoting a sweet edged malty/chocolate like taste. Increases the body and smoothness, but will reduce the depth of flavors a bit. If looking to impress, light roasts are where it shines. For daily drinking, medium roasts are the way to go. A candidate for dark roasts, fuller bodied, low acidity with the malty and roasty tones mix nicely.

Light roasts are delicate, sweet and clean. Will have a little citric crispness upfront, a bit of fruitiness and some lovely malty contrast.

Best served light to medium roasted. This is the brightest Guatemalan offering out of the bunch, crisp with sweet citrus, floral and soft fruit upfront, balancing with a nutty and malty darker tone. The Tabi strain brings a more “rustic” malty tones compared to traditional Guatemalan strains, but is not earthy like many hybrid coffees. Medium roasts build a little body and mellow the citric/fruit notes, less sharp of a cup with a stronger malty tone, the more exotic fruit tones and layers of tastes still come right through in taste but are muted slightly compared to lighter roast points.

A lovely coffee. Low acidity, medium body with rich and robust darker tones ringing throughout the cup. Medium to dark roasts are where these beans shine. Lighter roasting without much acidity will leave the cup a bit nutty and lacking but clean. Starting at about a medium roast the cup builds a wonderful chocolate note with some smoky and malty overtones. A bit on the sweeter smoother side, a tasty treat. Darker roasts, close to touching 2nd crack and where the much more robust tones pop out of the cup, reminiscent of a nice Haitian cigar.

At lighter roasts, the acidity is a bit lemony upfront but will quickly fade into a rocking jasmine floral tone, one can smell it after grinding as well, these beans have wonderful aromatics. From a medium roast on, the acidity is very gentle and balanced with a smooth more tea like chocolaty note, just a hint of sweet floral as the cup cools. Medium acidity levels, light to medium bodied, very sweet and floral, a very cool offering for Kona fans.

Medium roasts will mellow the acidity and accentuate the chocolaty factor, less extreme and easier to drink but not as punchy of a cup. A bit easier cup to achieve roasting wise. Darker roasts are still very interesting with the two-tones of roast level.

Very fermenty/fruity, lower acidity cup with good body. A wild old world natural processed good from light to dark. A beautiful tasting bean this season: slightly fruitier but still balances with traditional Indonesian character. Hints of acidity with stronger fruitiness at lighter roasts, strong fruit/oak tones on a more nutty/earthy/chocolaty profile at darker roast points. No missing the wild side in this cup. Medium roasts are where one should shoot for their first roast, mutes some nutty tones and pronounces the chocolaty factor for some balance, still plenty of wild fruity natural processed tones in the cup. Dark roasts will introduce some smoky accents but retain great sweetness. A great balance of slow dried natural with thick and creamy dark tones all in one cup.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.49.$7.49Current price is: $7.49.$8.49/lb$7.49/lb -

Black Friday Special! Normal Price $8.59/Lb
A great cup from light to dark: a clean, rich and smooth cup. To see it shine and differentiate itself from normal Indonesians, keep it in the light to medium roast ballpark. Just a hint of brightness upfront, sugarcane like sweetness, good body with a chocolate like lingering aftertaste. It does have a little earthy terroir, but is almost more playing on some spice notes than traditional Indonesian “muddiness”. Darker roasts are pretty hefty cups, still overly sweet but more simple in its taste, chocolate and spice like with some complimenting roasty notes. Darker roasts would work very well for espresso or cold brew, while lighter roasts would excel for drip or pour over.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.59.$7.49Current price is: $7.49.$8.59/lb$7.49/lb -

Crisp, clean and fresh, a great coffee from light to dark. A less acidic Kenya with great balance, mouthfeel and depth of flavors. At light roasts it will still have some brighter citrus qualities but will not pucker ones mouth. Kenyan coffees in general can be pretty strong. It has hints of chocolate, fruit & herbal spice along with the citrus and floral. Medium roasts bring the best balance to the cup accentuating the chocolaty tones and reducing the brighter notes just a hint. Darker roasts make that classic Kenya herbal tone pop right out and is more down the potent bakers chocolate alley. Very clean with increasing body as the roast gets darker. A great balance between citrus, floral, herbal and chocolate. Easy to change the balance of these tones by roast level – a fun coffee to play around with.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.49.$6.25Current price is: $6.25.$7.49/lb$6.25/lb -

A clean, fresh and bright Kenya coffee. Light to dark this will make a tasty cup. Full of citric and floral tones with small hints of a fruitiness, good body with some buzzy acidity that will tingle your tongue. Lighter roasts do have some lemony goodness but it’s crisp and defined, not quite mouth puckering. Hints of black tea spice with a small herbal chocolaty factor are present even at lighter roasting and balance out the cup nicely. Sweet edged with some hints of a fruity factor between the lemony floral front end and chocolaty herbal spice undertones. Medium roasts and smooth and accentuate the chocolaty factor, muting up most of the acidity, a very easy to drink cup. Darker roasts were equally as tasty and drinkable, retains it sweet edge and was not too roasty.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.99.$7.99Current price is: $7.99.$8.99/lb$7.99/lb -

A very clean, exotic and balanced cup of coffee. Kenyan coffees are known for their acidity and spice tones; this cup hit the classic Kenyan cup profile on the head without being overwhelming like some (very balanced in its tones). Not quite sizzling but a very noticeable lemony floral tone upfront at the light to medium roast points balanced with some herbal spice and fading into a nice chocolaty tone that lingers on the tongue. Light roasts will swing the balance towards the floral citric side, darker roasts more towards the jazzy bakers chocolate alley. Holds up into 2nd crack for you dark roast fans. Low acidity and strong bittersweet chocolate tones with the traditional Kenyan spice note that leaves a very smoky tone on the pallet.

Always one of our favorite Mexican coffees. Good from light to dark but our favorite was a medium roast. Medium to full bodied, medium to low acidity. Lighter roasting will promote a sweet citric edge balancing with a bit nutty/woody undertones. Has a hint of caramel after a couple days setup but risks keeping a little woody tone if too light. Medium roasts are pretty bullet proof, full bodied with rich chocolaty notes, a little nuttiness and vanilla like spice in the aftertaste. A clean cup with just a hint of citric crispness upfront. Darker roasts pick up a bit of roastiness but it compliments the very chocolaty profile, thick with no real hints of brightness. A good coffee for stronger chocolate tones at darker roasts.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.95.$6.95Current price is: $6.95.$7.95/lb$6.95/lb -

Always one of our favorite Mexican coffees. Good from light to dark. Although Natural processed, this is not a fruit bomb like many other natural processed coffees, has slightly fruity overtones that balance great with some citric, malt and nutty undertones. Its a little fuller bodied cup than most Terruno lots with well above average sweetness. Lighter roasting will have noticeable citric crispness upfront and will accentuate the fruitiness. Medium roasts balance the tones nicely and smooth out (reduce) the citric brightness. Darker roasts turn much more chocolaty and get pretty roasty and smoky, retains a sweet edge and shows hints of fruitiness as the cup cools. A good daily drinker across the roast levels.

Regular Price $8.49/Lb
A nice tasting coffee from light to dark. We thought it best right around a medium roast for daily drinking but depending on what you like, holds up well lighter or darker. Light roasts one can see the linkage to Kenya; citric and floral upfront, a sweet edge, thicker chocolate/spice undertones, hints of caramel with a little setup in the aftertaste. Not as punchy as most Kenyan offerings, but along the same line of tastes. Medium roasts really mellow the cup. Smooth most would say, a bit more neutral with just a hint of the floral and spice seen at the lighter roasts. Reminded us of a cross between the Mysore Nuggets and a nice Costa Rican coffee. Great for daily drinking. Darker roasts touching or into second crack retain the sweet edge and put a more malty/smoky taste into play with some lingering spice in the aftertaste.Price:Price: Original price was: $8.49.$7.29Current price is: $7.29.$8.49/lb$7.29/lb -

A sweet and fruity cup; best at a light to medium roast. Light roasts are lemony and floral upfront which fade to stronger red fruit and balances with a hint of rustic chocolaty darker tones. Medium roasts clean up the more rustic chocolaty tones which many will like but also reduce the sweetness and fruity factor of the cup, becomes a little fuller bodied with low acidity with good mouthfeel, fruity factor pops out more as the cup cools. Darker roasts get a bit edgy with semi-sweet smoky and roasty notes, finishes with almost a bit of an oaky barrel aged tone.

Great light to medium roast coffee. Although we have carried the San Felipe lot for years, having the Geisha separate this season has brought a ton of new tastes. East to tell the difference when compared to the other strains Selva Negra grows. Best at the light to medium roast level, these beans have a bit more acidity than anything else from Selva Negra. The cup is very floral and citric especially at lighter roasts. Not quite jasmine floral, a little more traditional citric, but very tasty; delicate and sweet edged. Where one can see the prime Geisha attributes is in the darker tones of the cup, black tea spice jumps right out. Light roasts are heavy on the citric and floral balanced just a touch of tea like spice with herbal overtones. Medium roasts are where most will want to shoot, defined tea like spice with some sweet crisp floral upfront. Darker roasts turn a bit plain, still very drinkable but not much uniqueness.Price:Price: Original price was: $7.49.$6.29Current price is: $6.29.$7.49/lb$6.29/lb -

A clean, sweet & smooth cup. Best at the lighter roast points but works nicely in the medium roast range as well. Lighter roasts focus the tastes more around the brighter citric/fruit tones: a hint of lemony citric that fades into a fruitiness, balancing with a darker malt like undertone. A good daily drinking lighter roast coffee. Comparatively to the Catuai, the Typica is mild mannered, delicate, less acidic, smoother, but with similar tastes. Medium roasts bring a more traditional cup with better balance. This should be the minimum roast level if you do not want noticeable floral/fruit notes upfront. Still has a bit of jazz upfront but a more pronounced nutty/malty tone to balance it out. The fruitiness turns a bit more normal for a natural, red-fruit like and sweet.Price: $8.99/lb - 7.79/lbPrice: $8.99 -

We thought it best right around a medium roast; balanced and sweet. Hints of sweet citric floral upfront comingle with smooth defined malt like tones, just the tiniest hint of a fruity factor in the aftertaste. Lighter roasts get much crisper, dominated with more floral citric fruit tones, lemony most would say but does still show a little malty undertone. Darker roasts cut out the more floral aspect of the cup and are very rich and smooth, more semi-sweet but still very malty, into second crack adds some complimenting smoky tones. Hard to find a bad roast point with these beans.

Some acidity at lighter roasts but just a hint, medium to dark roasts would be marked as low acidity. As one pushes it into the medium roast range, the very sweet nutty tones come off a bit caramel like. Still plenty malty, it will linger on the tongue. Dark roasts turn pretty strong with the sweeter malty cup profile mixing nicely with smoky and roasty notes.

Great from light to dark. Light roasts will show great depth of flavor and produce a very clean cup. Some acidity, which brings lemony and floral tones to the front end of the tastes, balances them with a sweet edged nutty/malty undertone, hints of a vegetal spice. As one pushes the roast a little darker, the body increases, as the acidity and vegetal spice dissipated. Made for a very lovely daily drinker in the medium roast range; sweet, smooth & complex. Pushing the beans darker, the citric and floral acidity drops nicely to a crisp hint or none at all, the malty tones can turn quite robust as you approach or touch 2nd crack. Sweet, smoky, roasty and malty.Price:Price: Original price was: $10.99.$9.99Current price is: $9.99.$10.99/lb$9.99/lb -

A good cup from light to dark, in the medium roast range was our favorite. Light roasts are clean and bright, medium to full bodied, it will have a pretty strong citric tone upfront that balances nicely a little hint of fruit and spice, on the nuttier side with a little herbal note in the aftertaste. Medium roasts similar to most of the Thailand coffees brings out a nice and more potent chocolate note, reducing the citric and accentuating the classic Asian spice. Still noticeable acidity at the medium roasts but its more buzzy than citric, not an overly sour cup but will leave your tongue a bit dry: provides some great depth of flavor. Not a fruity cup, but one might see some hints as the cup cools. Darker roasts get real hefty with a lower perceived acidity, herbal, chocolate, smoky and roasty. Good body and mouthfeel.

A wonderful very clean example of natural processing, best served in the light to medium roast levels. Medium acidity levels, comes off a bit on the lemon side, medium bodied with a pretty strong red fruit tone upfront, definitely on the sweeter side. Super light, cup picks up a bit of nutty and herbal contrast but this will develop into more spice and chocolate tones just a little after first crack. Thicker and stronger than an Ethiopian Natural, with more of an emphasis on the fruitiness and spice notes. Darker roasts accentuate the spice, pretty similar to the other Asain coffees, would put in on the rustic chocolate side with sweet and fruity overlays and a full body.
