We find our coffees toungue tingling, so what makes them so special:
- We select only the finest specialty pure Arabica beans - already quite
scarce since only 6% of the world's coffee crop is rated pure Arabica (or
typica).
- Then selecting only those pure Arabica coffees that are shade and mountain grown
and graded at least "AAA", we start our next level of test.
- We roast each coffee to multiple roast levels and we taste it. Of the 100's
we taste, we select a few that tingle our tongues the way it would tingle
Frog Quaffer's.
- Finally, from those that make our grade we specialty roast them to a level we
have identified exposes each coffee's unique nuances.
- Once you order we deliver them to your door freshly
roasted. At this point you can elect for our prediction system to try and guess
when you may next need.

Our most popular coffees
We have a number of coffees, but have found that the most popular in order of how
bodied they are, are
| Mild |
Yirgacheffe |
A uniquely mild coffee with lemony after taste. Grown in the Northern highlands
over 2000m above sea level in the province of Sidama |
| Limu |
Coffee as nature intended it. Coffee from the forests from the Limu province is
the original coffee. This wild coffee is a very distinctive citric taste
|
| Medium |
House |
Our House blend seems to be a popular choice for those who like coffee
with a little of everything.
|
| Mandheling |
This coffee is popular for the classic coffee drinker, not too over powering in
the mouth, and delicate to the noise. |
| Full |
Asorganica |
Being organic is one of its features, but it is full bodied, and can tolerate the addition of
milk and sugar |
| La Piramide |
Selected from many Columbian coffees, named after the mountains near where it is
grown, a full bodied coffee that is a perfect accompaniment to anything |
| Awesome |
Los Naranjos |
This coffee is the essence of specialty coffee, flavorful and distinctive, like a classic
single malt or a vintage champagne |
