Peak Reserve - Premium Microlot
Peak Reserve encompasses the most premium coffee available from our farming communities. Each offering is a uniquely roasted micro batch crafted with meticulous attention to detail and quality. The quality of these beans is a substantial step above most of the coffee available on the market.
Our Current Microlot Selection: Ethiopia Natural from The Guji Region
The Dhaka Bor Banti Cooperative is located in the Kercha area of the Guji region of Ethiopia, at elevations ranging from 2,000 to 2,550 meters above sea level. The Guji zone is high in the mountains of Ethiopia and is an area rapidly gaining recognition within the country's already world-renowned coffee landscape. Their natural processed lots are known for clean, floral aromatics, bold fruit notes, and a syrupy, full texture.
This coffee has tasting notes of raspberry and blueberry mixed in with caramel and clove.
Despite Ethiopia's coffee exports accounting for nearly 60% of the national GDP, many coffee farmers and their families live in dire poverty with very limited access to education, health care, and water. Cooperative structures like Dhaka Bor Banti help smallholder farmers access specialty markets and fair trade pricing.
Enjoy this coffee while it lasts!
From the roaster: I am extremely excited to introduce our new line of incredibly exceptional coffees. Through our long term partnerships with farming cooperatives of various regions in Africa, we have been offered access to some of the world's finest coffees. These are award winning coffees that have been cultivated with craft and care by people who have a deep connection with their land. We are delighted to be able to support these farmers in their efforts to produce coffees that truly stand out above the rest. Since these coffees are so special, we felt that they deserved to be recognized as such with a new package and a new line we are calling Peak Reserve. We will be roasting these coffees to bring out all of their distinct characteristics, and we hope that you will enjoy them as much as we do. We invite you to join us on this journey as we explore the highest peaks with some of the most vibrant coffees our partners have to offer.
