Ethiopia Espresso - Limmu Kossa - Galeh
This wonderful floral coffee from Ethiopia, will open up a new coffee world for you. Ethiopia, being the origin of coffee (and humankind) still grows wild coffees (heirlooms) and hence produces coffees which cannot be found elsewhere in the world.
Peru - Churupampa - La Lima Microlot
This coffee comes out of Chirinos, which lies in the Andes in Peru. Peru, with it's many mountains, is one of the best country to produce high quality specialty coffee. Churupampa has a social business model, instead of only looking out for themselves, the Tocto family helps more than 30 other farmers in the surrounding area, to improve their coffees and market it outside of Peru.
Nicaragua – Santa Lucila
Santa Lucila is a family business started 60 years ago.Their brand is called Café Vidita which translates to "small life". This name is by the nick name,now 97 year old founder, René Senior, gave his daughter. Nowadays the company is run by his grand children Rina and René Junior.
Kenia – Sakami – Natierlech
Gloria is a real sunshine when she enters the room and laughs, you just have to giggle along! The coffee is naturally processed, meaning it is dried in the coffee fruit and the beans absorb some of the fruitiness in the process. The result is an excellent fruit bomb with taste notes of strawberry, orange and milk chocolate. Kenyan coffees are very light coffees.
Kolumbien – Jésus Cerón – Hunneg
On my travels to Colombia, I've not only met the Argote family (who export the coffee from Colombia) but also Jésus Cerón. On the outskirts of the village of Génova, lives Jésus together with his wife, his brother and his mother. With the rest of their extended family they've build a small "village" of their own. Everybody owns a small plot of land with their house on it. In between of the homes, you can find patches of forest and of course coffee plantations.

Patrice.Coffee is roasted in my small roastery in Beaufort!
No. I am not a big fan of big labels. That being said, some farmers I work with are certified organic. As a roaster though, I am not certified!
No. As noted about the organic label, I am quite the skeptic when it comes to labels.
The better alternative (in my opinion) is called direct trade. This way of trading goods eliminates a lot of the intermediaries, which leads to the farmer receiving more money in the end.
Since the start I am working hand in hand with This Side Up from Amsterdam, in order to import my coffees. Over the years we've become good friends and I trust them 100%. They give me insight into exactly how much the farmer earns for his/her coffee. This is how I can guarantee, that the farmers get at least double the Fairtrade mimimum price.
Of course! You can prepare any coffee with a bean-to-cup coffee maker, even if it is not noted on a bag of coffee. It's simply a marketing trick!
Nope. And this won't ever be the case! Capsules are a huge source of wast which I will not support that in any way.
