FAQ

About coffee

We have to approach price negotiations differently in each country because they have different rules and systems. However, we have our own simple rule - always consider those who are at the very beginning. We are not only concerned about a fair price for farmers, but also about a fair reward for collectors.

We always have 4 to 6 selected coffee blends and 10 to 16 single-origin coffees in our offer. Throughout the year, depending on the season and current harvests, we always offer you the coffees that are the freshest at that moment.

We offer organic coffees. Many of our coffees, although wild-grown, are not organically certified because obtaining it is financially unaffordable for farmers in some countries.

Three things are bad for coffee – heat, light and air. Therefore, store coffee in a dry and dark place, preferably in an opaque container, where it will be protected from sunlight.

Beans intended for filter coffee are best consumed between 3 and 21 days after roasting. Coffee for espresso is best consumed between 14 and 38 days after roasting. Once opened, store away from heat, light and air. For maximum freshness, we recommend consuming your coffee within seven days of opening.

To prepare filtered coffee, follow the rule of 60-70 g of coffee per liter of preferably filtered water.

To prepare espresso, we recommend a coffee to water ratio of 1:2.5, for example 18 g of coffee to 45 g of water.

Use 9 g of coffee for a single espresso and 18 g of coffee for a double espresso.

None of our coffees contain added ingredients or flavors. The flavor profile describes the aromas, flavors, sweetness, and acidity in the coffee that are naturally present. Coffee has different flavors due to different types and varieties of coffee, soil composition, or altitude. The way the coffee is processed after harvest also has a significant impact on the final flavor of the coffee.

Everyone enjoys coffee in their own way. Some like it with sugar, others with milk or a classic black one without anything.

That's why we're happy to help you find the one you like best, based on your preferences and coffee flavor profiles.

With direct trade coffee, we buy beans directly from farmers, not through suppliers. This allows us to offer you a higher quality product and limited edition coffees that would otherwise never reach the European market.

From our roastery, you can enjoy the most diverse cup that the world of fine coffees has to offer.
