Cultivated on the fertile, volcanic slopes of the Mauka Honaunau District on the Big Island, this premium single-origin lot represents one of the rarest classifications in specialty coffee. Hand-harvested by local multi-generational family estates, the green coffee undergoes a traditional fully washed process before being dry-milled and rigorously sorted by physical size and shape. Unlike standard flat-faced coffee beans, this lot isolates the rare peaberry mutation, where a single, round seed develops inside the cherry rather than two. This unique spherical shape allows for highly uniform heat transfer and exceptional density inside the drum.

Cultivated within the prominent western highlands of Guatemala bordering Mexico, this single-origin selection showcases the historical agricultural traditions of the ethnically diverse Huehuetenango department. The region benefits from dry, warm mountain winds that shield the crops from frost, encouraging optimal development conditions across localized high-altitude microclimates. Family smallholders hand-harvest the crop before utilizing a standard fully washed processing method to refine the seeds. Attaining a Strictly Hard Bean (SHB) classification verifies that the lot was grown between 1,500 and 1,700 meters above sea level, producing dense structural properties that facilitate highly predictable heat distribution throughout a roast cycle. The foundational lot consists entirely of traditional Arabica Bourbon, Caturra, and Pache varieties.

Grown in the mineral-rich volcanic soils surrounding the Nevado de Huila volcano, this exceptional Supremo EP lot thrives within an ideal microclimate for complex seed development. Harvested by hand on small regional family estates, these large-screen 17/18 seeds are carefully de-pulped using manual hand-cranked machinery before being evenly sun-dried on traditional raised beds. The meticulous washed processing ensures immaculate structural consistency, allowing the dense seeds to hold up beautifully under deep, robust roasting temperatures. This single-origin selection delivers a bold, velvety body that starts with a distinct underlying sweetness and transitions into a remarkably rich, clean finish, capturing the peak of Huila’s celebrated regional terroir.

Honduras has become one of Central America’s most important origins for specialty coffee, with quality increasingly driven by smallholder cooperatives that share processing infrastructure and agronomic knowledge. Kingdom Growers comes from the Montecillos Mountain Range, where nearly 200 small farms work together to strengthen consistency and raise long term income through community scale production. In this region, farms are often just a few acres, and coffee is harvested by hand on steep slopes before lots are processed and milled with shared standards. Montecillos is recognized by IHCAFE as one of Honduras’s major coffee growing regions, spanning locales such as La Paz, Comayagua, Santa Bárbara, and Intibucá. This washed selection is grown at 1,200 to 1,600 masl, where elevation supports steady ripening and a structured cup. Roasted to a medium profile, it’s designed for everyday brewing with balance, clarity, and dependable sweetness.

Reserva del Patrón is La Minita’s high selection coffee from Nariño, Colombia’s southernmost district, built around strict elevation and export standards rather than volume. The lot is sourced from high altitude plantations and only coffees grown above 1,600 meters are considered for export, a threshold that narrows the field to specific growing conditions and a more consistent structure. From La Minita’s overall output, only a small portion qualifies as Reserva del Patrón and meets the highest Europrep standards each year, making it a deliberately limited selection rather than a routine offering. This coffee is washed and grown across 1,600 to 2,200 masl, a range that supports slower development and a composed cup profile. Roasted to a medium level, it is designed to feel balanced and complete, with enough development for body while keeping the cup clean and structured. It is a strong daily coffee for customers who want a classic Colombian profile that stays refined and reliable across brew styles, and it works well for both filter brewing and espresso. If you enjoyed Don Enrique, this is positioned as a natural sense of polished consistency.

Finca La Isabelia in Jinotega, Nicaragua is an organic coffee built around a honey process, a method that sits between washed and natural and is defined by how much sticky fruit mucilage remains on the bean during drying. Keeping that mucilage in place can deepen sweetness and add a more rounded mouthfeel, while still preserving a clean, structured cup when the drying is managed carefully. This lot is grown at 1,300 masl and produced from a mix of classic Central American varieties, including Caturra, Catuai, Catimor, and Bourbon, giving it a broad foundation for balance and consistency. Roasted to a medium profile, the goal is a composed daily cup that feels smooth and complete without leaning too bright or too heavy. It is a versatile coffee that works well across drip, pour over, and espresso, especially for customers who want sweetness and body without pushing into darker roast character. As an organic honey processed coffee, it also offers a clear story of careful production and a cup style that is approachable, polished, and easy to return to.

This Haiti coffee comes from Coopcab in the Central Plateau, a cooperative system built around three sub cooperatives operating at different elevations: Blue Pine, Marre Blanc, and Gwo Chwal. Each sub cooperative has roughly 400 members, and together Coopcab is considered the largest cooperative in Haiti, with a history of selling coffee into markets such as Japan. What makes this lot especially notable is that it is shade grown, a rarity in Haiti where many areas have experienced significant deforestation. Shade growing can support slower cherry development and help protect farm ecosystems, and it also signals a deliberate approach to long term coffee agriculture in a challenging context. Processing oversight is centralized, with Coopcab’s president supervising coffee processing to maintain consistency across the three sub cooperatives. Café Kreyol partners directly with the cooperative and also maintains personnel on the ground to support sustainability and quality control at both the farm and cooperative level. They are also working with Coopcab to assess grower profitability, an important step toward long term financial sustainability for members. This coffee is washed and grown at 1,300 to 1,600 masl. Roasted to a medium profile, it is designed to feel balanced and complete, with a clean structure that performs well across daily filter brewing and espresso.

This Tanzania lot is sourced from multiple small producers across the Kilimanjaro and Arusha regions, including districts such as Hai and Moshi Rural, with additional sourcing from Meru near the town of Arusha. Farms are typically 1 to 2 hectares and often intercropped with bananas and avocado, a practical approach that supports soil cover and diversified income while coffee grows alongside food crops. The coffee is fully washed and processed close to origin using locally made hand pulpers, fermentation in simple bucket systems, and careful drying on raised beds. Those methods, while straightforward, can be highly effective when managed well, and they tend to support a clean structure and a more transparent cup. The altitude range of 1,100 to 1,700 masl provides a wide band of growing conditions, but the overall intent of this selection is balance and intensity without losing cleanliness.

Marcala, Honduras is known for coffees that can carry sweetness and structure, and this organic lot from 18 Rabbit is built around a processing style designed to amplify that character. Honey process sits between washed and natural, defined by how much sticky mucilage remains on the bean during drying. The more mucilage left in place, the more sweetness can develop, and the category is often described in color bands that reflect mucilage level and drying time. This coffee is produced as a black honey, achieved by fermenting the cherries for up to 24 hours before depulping and drying on raised beds, a heavier fermentation window that can deepen sweetness and create a rounder, more mellow profile. 18 Rabbit is female owned and earned a Honduras Cup of Excellence win in 2014, with coffees that have commanded premium auction prices. The operation spans 13 farms separated into micro lots and overseen by members of the Zelaya Onteras family, with a model that emphasizes quality control and producer investment.
