Excitement fills the air as we welcome Volcan Azul back to the program this year, featuring the exceptional Marsellesa varietal—a captivating coffee born from the crossbreeding of Timor Hybrid and Villa Sarchi.
Volcan Azul stands out in a league of its own. Across five generations, a lineage dedicated to quality and conservation has shaped the remarkable coffee experience we savour today. Every aspect of harvesting and processing is executed with meticulous precision, granting them absolute control over the coffee's quality and consistency. Harvesting occurs at the optimum ripeness of 22% to 28% on the Brix scale, ensuring the perfect sugar content.
Beyond prioritising coffee excellence, there's a profound commitment to environmental conservation. With the acquisition of 1500 acres of rainforest, they champion biodiversity and combat the impacts of climate change. Collaborating with Alejo and his family has been a source of great joy over the past few years, and we take immense pride in presenting their exceptional coffees to you.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is a Single Origin?
Single origin coffee refers to coffee beans sourced from a single specific geographic region or farm, emphasizing their unique flavor profile and traceability.
-
What is an Espresso Single Origin?
This is when we specifically adjust the temperature when we roast the coffee to suit espresso style brewing methods. However, there are no rules, so feel free to use espresso roast coffee with your own style of brewing.
-
Are Espresso Single Origins good to use with Espresso Machines only?
There are no rules on when/how to brew your coffee. Roast profiles such as espresso and filter roast are specifically temperature adjusted to how light or dark we roast them for preferred brewing methods, however we encourage you to brew any way you desire! Espresso roast coffee's can be used for Espresso Machines, Aeropress, stovetop, plunger etc.
-
How can I store my coffee?
We recommend storing your coffee in a cool, dry space out of direct sunlight such as a pantry. You're able to keep your beans in your hopper on top of your grinder ready to grind or keep them in the bag. Our bags are nitrogen flushed to help keep your coffee fresher for longer, however, once you open the bag and the beans are exposed to oxygen, your coffee will naturally start its aging process.
-
There is a particular Single Origin I purchased, however, I no longer see it online?
We like to rotate our Single Origin offerings as we purchase limited amounts each season to showcase the many other amazing Single Origins around the world. It's likely we'll purchase from the same lot/origin again, so keep your eyes open.
