This bundle includes:

Colombian Regenerative Org. Tolima – MULTICOOP – Washed Processed

To guarantee traceability and export logistics, Multicoop works in strategic partnership with Mastercol, who handle the milling and final preparation of the beans for the international market. This collaboration directly connects high-altitude producers with global buyers, ensuring that the value generated by the coffee’s quality returns to the communities for reinvestment in their crops. This coffee is a clear example of sustainable and technically sound production, offering a clean and consistent cup that faithfully reflects the terroir of the Colombian Andes.

Tasting Notes: A very pleasant cup, great daily drinker being a classic Colombian cup. Above average cleanliness and brightness, not a sizzling cup but definitely crisper than most Colombians.  Medium bodied with a smooth and rich mouthfeel, stays sweet and clean from start to finish. At light roast points, the profile is crisp and herbal, showcasing brighter citrus notes of lemon and orange, hints of tropical fruit. As you move into a medium roast, the acidity decreases considerably, smoothing out into rich nutty, chocolate with hints of soft fruit; interestingly, as the cup cools, the brightness re-emerges to lift the chocolate notes. If you take it to a dark roast, the acidity disappears completely, leaving a heavy body with deep semi-sweet chocolate flavors, great cleanliness, and lingering sweetness.

Roasting Notes: Easy to roast with good bean size, few defects, and low chaff due to the processing. We recommend a roast level between Light and Medium to capture the perfect balance of fruit, acidity and chocolate. If you are aiming for a light roast to highlight the acidity, be sure to develop it slightly past the first crack; stopping too early can result in raw peanut or hazelnut notes. For fans of darker coffee, this bean handles heat well, offering a very clean and full-bodied cup without the fruit tones.

Peru Org. Norandino – Washed Processed

The local cooperatives focus on training producers in best organic practices and invest in basic infrastructure needs like road improvements and establishing local warehouses. The regional cooperatives focus on creating credit for producers and investing in social programs on a larger and more impactful scale, using the collective resources generated from the sale of coffee. Environmental training programs, healthcare initiatives, life insurance, and educational opportunities are just some of the ways these cooperatives strive to improve the quality of life for coffee producers and their families.

Tasting notes: A great daily drinking Peru! Best right around a medium roast but works well from light to dark. It stands out for being a very clean and sweet cup. At lighter roast levels it has some crisp acidity, not over the top but noticeable, gives a quick hit lemon and floral that will balance with nutty and chocolate like darker tones. Small hints of caramel and dried fruit will pop out with a little setup. At medium roast levels, you get more of a smooth easy drinking cup, less acidity with accentuated nutty/chocolate tones, a hint of spice in the aftertaste, provides the best balance of light/dark tones. Darker roasts are a little flat and roasty, but on the more neutral side, classic darker roast beans: smooth, rich and on the roasty chocolate side of things with a little nuttiness in the aftertaste.

Roasting notes: An easy coffee to roast, very forgiving and tasty from light to dark. It has medium to low chaff levels and roasts pretty even. If you want to highlight its acidity more, lighter and quicker roasts are the way to go, just make sure everything gets through first crack or risk some grassy peanut like notes. For daily drinking, a medium roast is best, smooth and rich with a sweet edge. Bolder coffee fans, touching or just into second crack gives a clean and classic darker roast cup profile.

Costa Rican Central Valley – Cafe Vida – Washed Processed

Costa Rica’s Central Valley is widely considered the heart of the country’s coffee industry, shaped by high elevations, steady weather patterns, and volcanic soils that have supported coffee farming for generations. Coffee has been part of Costa Rica’s economic story since the late 1700s, and by the 1820s it had become a major agricultural export.

Another thing that sets Costa Rica apart is how organized the coffee sector is. The national coffee authority, ICAFE, was established in the early 1930s to support agricultural and commercial development and to provide industry oversight. Café Vida is a regional program built to highlight the classic, approachable side of washed Costa Rica: balanced sweetness, soft acidity, toasted nut character, and an easy “daily driver” profile that works both as a single origin and in blends. Harvest runs December through February, with coffees grown at 1200–1800 masl.

Being a small holder aggregate, or regional example, it’s not tied to a single cultivar, it’s contains a blend of the regional staples like Caturra, Catuai, Bourbon, Villa Sarchi, Villalobos, Sarchimor, Venecia, and Costa Rica 95. Washed processing in Costa Rica is designed to be efficient with water use, which one can feel very good about. Driven by national regulation but everyone loves clean water.

Tasting Notes: A nutty and chocolaty cup, with a hint of floral and citric crispness and a slight red fruit sweetness. A good bean for daily drinking and tasty from light to dark roasts. We thought it best around a medium roast, classic Costa with just a pinch of acidity, nutty and chocolate tones with a little floral kicker in the aftertaste. An excellent cold brew, its notes are slightly more pronounced, highlighting its acidity, body, and chocolatey notes. It’s a clean and refreshing coffee with a smooth, lingering sweetness, offering subtle hints of almond and walnut.

Roasting Notes: A straightforward and easy-to-roast washed coffee. For a sweeter and more balanced profile, a medium-light to medium roast is recommended, allowing the cocoa and almond notes to develop. This roast level provides a good balance between acidity and these chocolatey tones. Roasting it darker will yield more pronounced notes of chocolate, spices, and other aromas. If you prefer coffees that aren’t too intense, this coffee is perfect for you. We recommend letting it rest for a couple of days to allow the acidic notes to become more prominent.
