Our decaf is amazing—Condor Decaf is a single varietal (caturra) coffee produced by our friends Shady and Elias Bayter at their farm Finca El Vergel in Tolima, Colombia. It's not just great for a decaf, it's a great coffee all by itself. We're happy to be offering this coffee year-round and hope you enjoy it as much as our caffeinated offerings!

From the producers, Shady and Elias Bayter:

"El Vergel estate made the decision to produce a very high-quality decaffeinated coffee, after seeing that most of the coffee used in Colombia to produce "decaf" is a lower-quality coffee. That’s why our decaf is made with coffees from our farm El Vergel. It means we use first-quality coffees which have allowed us to create a decaffeinated product that, despite the process, does not lose its sweetness in the cup."

Tasting Notes: Blue Raspberry Slushy, Coconut, Rose

Our Ethiopia Ardi Natural process—an intensely fruity and floral coffee—comes to us from the Biru Bekele Washing Station in the Guji Zone of the Oroma region of Ethiopia.

The station was built by Biru Bekele in 2018, and the coffee the they buy and process there from smallholders in the area is world class. The elevation in the coffees there range from 1750 to 2050 meters above sea level, and is some of the highest quality in the whole country. 

We’ve purchased this coffee for several years now through our friends at Keffa Coffee, an importing company based in Baltimore, MD. Keffa’s owner, Samuel Demisse, was born in Keffa, Ethiopia and moved to the United States in 2004, with the mission to bring amazing Ethiopian offees from his home to new audiences in the United States.

Our Cold Brew is a custom blend made specifically to pair perfectly with the cold brew brewing method. It has rich notes of chocolate, praline, and stone fruit.

Tasting Notes: Kiwi, Toasted Almond, & Candied Orange.

Black Condor comes to us from our long-time Colombia partner Forest Coffee. This particular washed process coffee is from their project in the community of Gaitania and is produced by more than 100 coffee growers from the area. Processing for the coffee is handled by Emmanuel Enciso, the co-founder of the project, at his farm—Finca La Roma. 

The program gives back too—producers who are a part of the program receive agricultural support throughout the year including workshops that cover processes, fermentation, drying, and cupping their own coffees. 

We’re happy to be in our 6th year of partnership with Forest on the Black Condor project, and look forward to many more.
