- Flavor Notes: Rosehip, Black Tea, Grapefruit
You’ve probably encountered coffee produced using the Burundi Washed process. We pondered: why not bring you a coffee processed this way directly from its place of origin? Floral, tea-like, and brimming with delicious citric acidity, this Red Bourbon from the Muyinga province in Burundi perfectly encapsulates the exotic flavor profile of Africa. Subtle hints of rosehip in the aroma provide a curious prelude to its syrupy texture. A prominent note of black tea with undertones of grapefruit leads to a crisp and clean finish.
This coffee was produced by tib Coffee (This is Burundi) in the Muyinga province in northern Burundi, a stunning hilly region with an average altitude of 1500 – 1700 MASL. Around 2000 farmers, with farms spanning 50 hectares, collaborate with the washing station. Coffee is pivotal to Burundi’s economy and serves as a significant source of income for families, supporting education and providing access to cash for housing construction. Kiryama derives from the verb “Kuryama,” meaning “to sleep” in Kirundi. Royal princes used to rest on this hill, finding respite before engaging in their customary activities in the region. They favored this hill, influencing Catholic missionaries to establish a parish where Italian priests resided for more than 20 years.

We’re thrilled to celebrate our newest exotic rarity with you – Papayo Naturals from Finca el Rubi in Colombia. Papayo is a very rare varietal found only in the Huila department of Colombia. Initially assumed to be a Caturra mutation, genetic testing has revealed a closer relationship with Ethiopian Landrace (varietals native to Ethiopia). It gets its name, “Papayo,” from the appearance of the cherries that are oblong, resembling tiny papayas. This coffee is a truly opulent indulgence. We invite you to immerse yourself in the sweet and bustling aromas of vanilla essence and honeydew melons and revel in a luscious tactile experience, throwing out sweet notes of kiwi and black currant.
Nearly three decades ago, Heiner Lazo bought Finca el Rubi at San Adolfo, Huila, assisted by his parents, as a wedding gift for his future wife, Johanna. Here’s what he had to say about why he did it:
“This farm was a wedding present from me with the help of my parents. If you love your woman, you have to give her something special like a diamond or ruby. My love was so big that one ruby could not express it, so I gave her thousands of rubies, that looked much nicer to me, and it gave us much more than a stone could ever give to a person. All these coffee rubies helped us move forward and raise three beautiful daughters. When they are big enough and find their husbands to be, I will tell them what a real ruby is.”

Our first Omni Roast in the showcase series is a resounding sensation from Ratnagiri Estate. ‘Candied Mandarin’ embodies the pinnacle of coffee craftsmanship, having undergone a highly controlled 90-hour extended carbonic maceration washed process.

We are pleased to introduce our inaugural offering from an unconventional coffee-producing region in India.

The ascendancy of coffee in this region reflects a growing awareness and a burgeoning reputation.
Coffee plantations in Northeast India are often set amidst lush forests, rolling hills, and high-altitude terrains. The biodiverse surroundings not only contribute to the unique flavor profiles of the coffee but also make it an environmentally sustainable crop.
This assortment of naturals hails from the enchanting region of Mizoram. We’ve tailored a medium-dark espresso profile that elicits a nostalgic aroma of baked biscuits, and captivating notes of cocoa and dried coconut.

- Process: Aerobic Naturals
- Varieties: Old Peradeniya
- Flavor Notes: Butter Cookies, Cinnamon, Almonds
At many workshops, we tell coffee enthusiasts that the first step in mastering Fine Robusta is to process and roast a coffee that is palatable to someone used to the best Arabicas. It must leave no unpleasant impressions and allow you to finish the entire cup. The next step is to enhance the characteristics of a Robusta that are unique – its creamy/buttery texture and strong chocolate notes. The final step is to extract some form of complexity that makes the coffee memorable. While Robusta has a long way to go before gaining affection from the global coffee community, Indian Robusta has made huge leaps of progress.
Nisha and Kurian have shared this wonderful Fine Robusta with us that we’re happy to bring to your doorsteps. Its mild acidity, pleasant sweetness, and bold buttery body remind you that Robusta is not always to be endured but also enjoyed. Dive into a mild aroma of freshly baked butter cookies and notes of cinnamon spice and almonds. A sweet and lingering finish will seal a place for this lot in your mind palace of coffee memories. This is not our first Robusta, and it surely won’t be our last. Enjoy it bold in espresso or sweet and balanced in manual brews. Milk is most welcome, but not needed. Cheers!

Unveil hidden dimensions of complexity in this very unique lot of coffee.
