Our newest featured coffee comes long-time partners Shady and Elias Bayter of Forest Coffee and El Vergel Estate in Fresno Tolima, Colombia. The coffee begins with the handpicking of rare Papayo varietal cherries at their absolute peak ripeness. After harvest, the cherries undergo a 4-hour aerobic pre-fermentation on tarps, which enhances the coffee’s tropical and fruity character.
The cherries are then sealed in shaded hermetic tanks for a 96-hour fermentation at 22–25% humidity. This slow, controlled process builds complexity and develops exotic flavors that are lifted by delicate citric acidity and deep dark chocolate undertones.
After the anaerobic fermentation, the coffee is mechanically dried for 76 hours to achieve the ideal moisture level, locking in the unique profile. Finally, the beans rest for 30 days in GrainPro bags, allowing flavors to harmonize and ensuring stability and quality until roasting.

frequently asked questions
single origin coffee comes from a specific geographic region, or in 8th & Roast’s case, a farm or family of farms. this allows for a dialed-in flavor profile that carries the trademark of the area where the coffee was grown, with elements like climate, elevation, and soil as factors. blends are created when our roasters combine coffees of a different origin and/or process in a deliberate way, creating a unique flavor profile.
our roasting facility and training lab is located in the heart of Nashville at 2637 grandview ave. while it is not open to the public on a daily basis, it is where we host our community classes.
we offer classes occasionally, with topics ranging from ‘coffee 101’ to ‘latte art’ to ‘home brewing and extraction.’ check out our classes page for the most updated information.
try to avoid heat, light, moisture, and oxygen to keep your beans at their freshest. our bags are designed for great storage, and we recommend keeping them in a dry, dark pantry for optimal storage. we don’t recommend storing beans in the refrigerator.
Common Voice is the sister brand of 8th & Roast Coffee Co. originally launched by goodcitizen coffee, it is now part of the 8th & roast family when we acquired the brands. common voice provides more people with access to boutique coffee and enables farmers to sell more of their available crops year after year. the resulting blends are produced and processed to the same standards as all our coffees.
