Who We Support

Where our coffee comes from right now

Colombia is where most of what we roast comes from, and it shows up in more than one story:

• La Tunda, our best seller, comes from a women’s cooperative in Tolima, in the Huila region — grown between 1,500–1,800 masl.
• Sunbeam Espresso includes a micro-lot from a group of 40 women farmers who pool their coffee and resources to reach international buyers, through Terra Coffee SAS.
• Anna & Rufous Espresso and Shady both draw from a small-farm community in south Santander — the Wandurraga family’s four farms and one of the Vasquez Brothers’ farms — where the growers describe biodiversity as a shared heritage, and where the work of women producers in the community is part of what the coffee supports. Anna & Rufous also includes a micro-lot from El Poema, a farm Sebastian and his mother bought together in 2016.

Rwanda. Our Amahoro is grown by seven farmers on Bikunda Hill, a tight-knit group who live along Lake Kivu and bring their cherries by boat to the Ngoma washing station each harvest. It’s a direct-trade relationship built through Baho Coffee, who pay well above the national farmgate rate — the kind of traceability that’s still rare in East African coffee.

Honduras. Our seasonal La Dicha comes from the San Gil region, grown around 1,700 masl.

East Timor. The organic washed robusta in Anna & Rufous and Sunbeam comes from family-owned farms organized through the Cooperativa Café Timor, a cooperative of more than 20,000 members that also funds free rural healthcare across the districts it serves.

Trickster Decaf blends beans from Mexico, Ethiopia, Sumatra, and Brazil. It’s Swiss Water processed and chemical-free — we just don’t yet have the same farm-level detail on this one that we have on our single origins. We’re working on that.

Alba Luz — coming back soon. Some of you will remember Alba Luz as the coffee that came before La Tunda, and we’re happy to say it’s returning. It’s grown at Finca Santa Cecilia in San Gil, Santander, by Alba Luz Wandurraga, her husband Roberto, and their twin daughters Monica and Veronica — a genuine family operation, with 32,000 coffee plants growing under a canopy of shade trees alongside food crops for the family itself, and several hectares left standing as forest. Alba Luz is a regular participant in the Best of Santander competition — not to win, she says, but to learn from the critique. Only the ripest cherries are handpicked, and after washing and drying, the coffee goes through a second, final selection before anything makes it into a bag. We’ll share exactly when it’s back on shelves as soon as we know.
