WHY WE LOVE IT: A rotation of fresh harvests from our partner communities in Colombia, Colombia Community is selected for its balance, sweetness, and crisp fruity acidity.
DESCRIPTION: apple, orange, chocolate
Colombia Community is a rotating selection of coffee harvests from our partner communities. It is a great way to tour Colombian coffee throughout the year, and we specifically source the lots for their high quality and balanced tasting notes. Each bag contains a QR code for you to scan and learn more about the specific lot that is in the bag. Staples for this coffee include familiar communities like Monserrate.
Colombia is one of coffees most dynamic and diverse origins and it's also home to some of our longest standing relationships. Given the diversity of coffee coming out of Colombia and the many blend components and single-origin coffees we bring in from there, we consider these relationships part of the backbone of our company. Colombia Community is a celebration of that fact, and a delicious way to experience the excellence of Colombian coffee year round.

We offer three different grind sizes on the vast majority of our coffee offerings: drip, espresso, and French press.
- Use drip grind if you plan on making your coffee using a coffee machine, in a pour over brewer, or if you want to try a newer way to make your trusty French press.
- Use espresso grind if you have an espresso machine at home. This grind will be very fine and will over-extract (in other words, taste bitter and chalky) in other methods.
- Use French press grind if you are making a coffee in the more traditional French Press method, or making cold brew, or do very large batches in a Chemex (greater than 60 grams of coffee).

Please visit our brewing page here. Coffee brewing is as much an art as it is a science, and it might take a few tries for you to find a sweet-spot that matches your taste preference. We recommend not getting too lost in the "right" way to brew, but instead focus on what you like and try to educate yourself on some best practices. And then just take it from there!
That said, we offer several how-to's for many popular brewers:
-
Our blends run from medium-light to dark. You can get a full breakdown of the blends in our Blend Buying Guide.
Core Blends include:
700 is our medium-roast core espresso blend that also tastes great as drip.
Cafe Kaldi has been our house blend since 1994. It contains coffee from Ethiopia that gives it a touch of complexity.
Dancing Goats Blend is a little more developed and gives a bit bolder of a cup.
Highlander Grogg is a fan-favorite flavored coffee.
