Espresso Blend update

A new year and a new blend.
With the arrival of a new Ethiopian Yirgacheffe from the Adado mill we're happy to present our new espressoblend:
25% Adado, Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia
25% Finca Vista Hermosa, Huehuetenango, Guatemala
50% Daterra Sweet Collection, Cerrado, Brazil

The blend still has the sweet and creamy body of the last version, but with a more interesting aroma. By using the unwashed coffee from Adado we have added hints of strawberry to top the deeper aromas of chocolate and marzipan.

To mark the new blend Linus has also designed a new label with multiple colors.

Daterra, Brasil unloaded

So after some hours of hard work we managed to unload the container with green beans from Daterra, Brasil, from who we now are buying directly.
Even if we are not used to this kind of intense carrying, it is really rewarding to get some physical experience of the coffee. It really makes you think about what gigantic work it is in the farm before the coffee even gets to us. Humble greetings from the loaders. Now it is up to us to carry on with the rest.

Bom trabalho mineiros ! Beleeeza!

Something very special arrived today at the roastery.

New member of the collective!

Wonderful news. Although this actually happened on Christmas day. There is now another mouth to feed in the collective because Peter and his wife Thea are now parents!!!

Early Christmas morning Thea gave birth to a beautiful little boy. He's got long hair and is apparently pretty tall (no surprise considering the parents).



Say hello to Malte!

Peter is now on a well-deserved leave for a few days to enjoy family life and we all wish him, Thea and little Malthe a very happy new year!
