Colombia Chiroso de San Carlos

Introducing the Colombia Chiroso de San Carlos, a limited microlot that represents the peak of innovation and community partnership. This is not just coffee; it's a testament to progress, featuring the highly prized Chiroso variety—a bean renowned for its floral and citrus-forward profile.

This inaugural harvest, scored as high as 88.75 SCA points, is the result of a dedicated project bringing together 10 small, hardworking family farms in the Penderisco River valley of Urrao, Colombia. By focusing on advanced processing techniques and direct trade, this coffee delivers an intensely vibrant, layered, and polished cup.

The Story: People and Progress
The Chiroso de San Carlos Project is driven by education and empowerment. Most farms in Urrao are small (around 1.5 hectares) and rely on family labor. Through the direct partnership of Forest Coffee, these producers have mastered modern Washed, Natural, and Honey processing methods, allowing them to dramatically improve quality.

This commitment to quality ensures a traceable, exceptional product and, most importantly, allows farmers to earn up to 30% more than through traditional sales channels. By purchasing this coffee, you are directly supporting the future and economic growth of the Urrao coffee community, one high-scoring cup at a time.

The Process
The Chiroso variety's inherent sweetness and complexity are magnified by a meticulous anaerobic fermentation process. After a short aerobic pre-fermentation, the coffee rests in sealed tanks for 36 hours. This controlled environment refines the coffee’s acidity and deepens its flavour structure.

Following fermentation, the coffee is sun-dried for up to 16 days, preserving the vibrant citric acidity and sugary sweetness that define this spectacular microlot.

Burundi Kayanza Ruvumu

Experience a coffee that not only tastes exceptional but also tells a powerful story of community, innovation, and hope.

Burundi Kayanza Ruvumu is a truly special coffee that embodies dedication and transformation. This fully washed lot hails from the Ruvumu Hill, processed at the Umuco coffee washing station in Muruta Commune, Kayanza Province.

This coffee is a direct result of the inspiring work of Migoti Coffee Company, founded by engineers Dan and Pontien, who are revitalizing Burundi's coffee-producing communities through quality and transparency. The Umuco station itself, owned by three passionate Burundian entrepreneurs – Picasso, Zephyrin, and Jeremie – began its journey in 2017, planting 32,000 coffee trees and distributing seedlings to local farmers. In 2024, they proudly opened their state-of-the-art washing station, collecting cherries from over 1,700 farmers.

Beyond the bean, Umuco's vision directly addresses local challenges, working to empower farmers by improving productivity, encouraging new plantings, and ensuring better prices for their cherries, fostering sustainable growth in a region deeply affected by poverty.

This Bourbon varietal undergoes meticulous Washed processing: cherries are depulped, fermented for 12-24 hours, and then carefully dried on raised beds for 2-3 weeks to an optimal 11-12% moisture content. Each lot is cupped for quality assurance, ensuring only the finest beans make their way to your cup.

Tasting: Expect delightful notes of sweet Brown Sugar and smooth Caramel, beautifully complemented by Orange Blossom and Rose Water. This coffee offers a clean and inviting cup with a creamy mouthfeel.

Uganda Bugisu Sipi Falls

The coffee is named after the Sipi Falls, a trio of waterfalls located on the outskirts of Mount Elgon National Park in Eastern Uganda. This region is famous for growing the 'Bugisu' Arabica variety, the most renowned of the Ugandan Arabicas.

Certified organic, it is cultivated as part of the Sipi Falls Coffee Project. Initiated in 1999, the project now involves over 5,000 smallholder producers managing an area exceeding 2000 hectares. With around 3.5 million families are connected to coffee production through this project, this coffee is not only a culinary delight but also a symbol of community and sustainability.

Tasting: Boozy strawberry. A rounded orange and wine acidity with lingering cocoa, vanilla and caramel. This coffee is a sensory delight, offering a captivating bouquet of aromas that dance from the cup.
