The Worlds Finest Coffee TO Your PAD

Specialty grade coffee is source from the farms around the world, all coffee is hand picked and shade from of Arabica variant.

We find our coffees toungue tingling, so what makes them so special:

We select only the finest specialty pure Arabica beans - already quite scarce since only 6% of the world's coffee crop is rated pure Arabica (or typica).
Then selecting only those pure Arabica coffees that are shade and mountain grown and graded at least "AAA", we start our next level of test.
We roast each coffee to multiple roast levels and we taste it. Of the 100's we taste, we select a few that tingle our tongues the way it would tingle Frog Quaffer's.
Finally, from those that make our grade we specialty roast them to a level we have identified exposes each coffee's unique nuances.
Once you order we deliver them to your door freshly roasted. At this point you can elect for our prediction system to try and guess when you may next need.

Our most popular coffees

We have a number of coffees, but have found that the most popular in order of how bodied they are, are

Mild	Yirgacheffe	A uniquely mild coffee with lemony after taste. Grown in the Northern highlands over 2000m above sea level in the province of Sidama
Mild	Limu	Coffee as nature intended it. Coffee from the forests from the Limu province is the original coffee. This wild coffee is a very distinctive citric taste
Medium	House	Our House blend seems to be a popular choice for those who like coffee with a little of everything.
Medium	Mandheling	This coffee is popular for the classic coffee drinker, not too over powering in the mouth, and delicate to the noise.
Full	Asorganica	Being organic is one of its features, but it is full bodied, and can tolerate the addition of milk and sugar
Full	La Piramide	Selected from many Columbian coffees, named after the mountains near where it is grown, a full bodied coffee that is a perfect accompaniment to anything
Awesome	Los Naranjos	This coffee is the essence of specialty coffee, flavorful and distinctive, like a classic single malt or a vintage champagne

Freshness is key

The only way to serve and enjoy fine, mountain grown, Arabica coffee is fresh roasted. We fresh roast all our coffee and also work with you to match your usage to the freshness of the coffee, so that you can enjoy our coffees at their finest.

We focus on fine coffees and therefore ONLY sell in whole bean form. We believe that selling coffee ground would be like selling champagne uncorked
