Selling to businesses in & around The Woodlands, Texas.
Our coffee is personally delivered by Brandon within 3 days of roasting.
Roasted by a perfectionist (Joel) on Loring S15 (dialed in & saved for perfect consistency), & sold by a perfectionist (Brandon). It bothers us if:
- the coffees taste profiles aren’t perfect.
- If there is 1 imperfectly roasted bean in your bag.
- If your eyes don’t roll on the first sip.
In general regenerative & organic coffees have a richer, more complex flavor profile due to the more natural growing conditions and soil nutrients.
- Nutrition:
- more vitamins
- more minerals
- more micronutrients
- and more antioxidants
- Lower acidity = easier for sensitive stomachs.
- No chemicals: grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers which reduces exposure to harmful chemicals for us & the farmers, through the soil & water.
We meticulously source our coffee to:
- improve the lives of coffee farmers, their families, & their communities, by paying them more than most (respecting their craft & hard work).
- enhance soil health, restore the ecosystem & biodiversity.
- reduce carbon, conserve water, & reduce deforestation.
We only partner with farmers who match our sustainability values to make the world a better place.
We also roast with a Loring S15 because it reduces fuel-savings by 80% and reduces greenhouse gases as compared to conventional roasters.

Our Coffee’s
Mexico offers an abundance of both Fair Trade- and organic-certified coffees, especially in areas like Oaxaca, Veracruz, and Chiapas, strongly influenced by the indigenous groups and cultures which have long been the driving force behind smallholders’ embrace of organic practices, in line with traditional growing philosophies.
This coffee growths in an area in Chiapas inhabited mostly by indigenous Tzeltal people. In Yajalon, organic farming is a tradition. Most farmers are using the coffee cherry pulp as fertilizer, with leaves and ash mixed in for nitrogen. This is a wet process: after pulping, the green seeds are fermented overnight, to break down the mucilage that will be washed away. Then, the coffee beans are dried on a patio or raised beds.

The Swiss decaf method is one of the gentler processes, using only water and no solvents to remove 99.9% of the caffeinee, and leaving some of the volatile compounds that affect flavor and aroma intact.
This decaf originated from the Dabessa coffee farm, located near the village of Wolenso, in Limu Kossa region. This 150 hectare farm and processing site is owned by the Dabessa family, who produces both dry process and fully washed coffees. This lot is a dry process coffee, where the whole cherry is laid to dry on raised beds and not removed until both fruit and seed are down to 10-11% moisture.
