Great new crop offerings...a first for us from Uganda, Sipi Falls organic, a tremendous coffee, rich and sweet. Badbeard's is kicking over a share to our wonderful friends at S.O.U.L., a nonprofit working in educational and community outreach in some of that country's poorest regions. We will continue to support SOUL with all of our Ugandan offerings as they arrive...

Also excited to have Keffa Coffee's new crop YirgZ and Limu-Gera back in the rotation. The washed Limu was one of the highest-scoring coffees from that area ever handled by Samuel Demisse, a jammy fruit bomb normally reserved for natural process cultivars. Bravo. Fantastic pourover and espresso.

We have been plowing through the Harar and will be getting more of this intriguing coffee from Keffa Coffee Importers on Feb. 10 to slake your thirst for the exotic!

Native son Samuel Demisse of Keffa Coffee Importers continues to bring us the best coffees from Ethiopia year after year. The new YirgZ, a washed Yirgacheffe (the "z" stands for zero-defect-sorting, which takes 3 times longer than conventional hand sorting and pays a premium to the women who labor tirelessly!) and Harrar Mesela are in and smokin' hot. For those coffee adventurers who want an exotic cup exploration of East Africa's most unusual. the Harar is for you.
