The beans for our Dark roast come directly from our Mizan Farm in southwestern Ethiopia. Mizan is one of the historic hearts of arabica farming. Because of its great coffee quality and almost unequaled biodiversity, the entire region is on the frontline of agroforestry and reforestation projects to protect its special character for future generations.
When the farmers deliver the ripe red berries to the washing station, the processing team washes them and puts them on the drying beds.
Dark is roasted at a state-of-the-art facility in Addis Ababa, trucked there fresh from the fields where the beans were picked. It is arguably the shortest supply chain from field to packaging. By roasting at origin we ensure that at least 50% of the value remains within the coffee communities themselves.
Immediately after being roasted, the beans are 'nitro flushed', a process that removes the oxygen from the packaging to ensure your beans arrive fresh. Each package includes a Product Requirements Document (PRD), specifying the production date so you know exactly when your coffee was roasted.
