Frequently Asked Questions

  • In fact, yes! We’ve been working with the Menendez Family in El Salvador for over 13 years now. Not to mention the strong relationships we have cultivated with farmers in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Ethiopia, Burundi, Kenya, and many more beautiful countries.

  • Local grocers in Bend, Oregon and other premium supermarkets throughout the Pacific Northwest.

  • A beautiful Loring Falcon; manufactured by previous NASA scientists located in San Francisco, California.

  • We do not add any additional flavors to our coffees. We use tasting notes and strictly our best interpretation of flavor profiles for each coffee.

  • Our high-quality coffees are purchased and roasted to showcase their flavor profiles which allows us to offer all three types of roasts! While our single origin coffees are on the lighter end of the spectrum, we have a handful of medium and dark roasts to choose from.

  • While we believe coffee is best freshly ground and kept as whole beans before brewing, we are able to grind any coffee, any method.

  • While coffee wouldn’t necessarily go “bad” for up to a year, it is ideal one week to one month out of the roaster. Coffee stays “freshest” sealed in a cool, dry, and dark environment.

  • Degassing is the release of gases, specifically carbon dioxide, from roasted coffee. When brewing coffee, the first thirty seconds is known as the “bloom” which means the coffee is releasing gases. The fresher the coffee, the more degassing will occur. Coffee is best drank seven days after the roast date.
