Enjoy the diversity and uniqueness of smallholder producer coffee from Guatemala, Colombia & Ethiopia, roasted for espresso brewing.

When we say "Elevated Classics" we mean expertly roasted, carefully selected single origin washed coffees. You can expect to taste classic espresso profiles we love while also maintaining and elevating each coffees uniqueness. You will notice variation across the varietals and differences in processing as well as the wonderful variety that origin, seasonality, farm locality/elevation and producer practices serves up. 

Even more so, you will get to know the people at the heart of the coffee. You'll learn about their story, their farming practices, their family and exactly how the coffee came to be. 

We have an ever-changing menu of single origin coffees due to our extensive work on the ground at the origins we source from - Colombia, Guatemala & Ethiopia.

Why Smallholders?

Smallholder producers are the unsung heros of our coffee menu. That’s why their names are on the front of the boxes. We love the quality, variety and uniqueness of coffee produced by smallholder producers. We feel deeply the need to support small producers to grow their future, support their family and receive a fair return for the great coffee they produce.

Sustainably grown

The producers we work with care deeply about their land and community. We always encourage farming practices that support healthy soils and biodiversity. Many of the producers we work with use holistic, regenerative and organic practices. Some have done so for over 10 years while others are learning and adapting their farms to be more naturally resilient as the effects of climate changes bring new challenges. We promote and organize peer-to-peer agricultural training to assist them in their transition away from chemical inputs.

Ethically sourced

We prioritize purchasing from smallholder producers, because they are more likely to be disadvantaged in terms of market access. We recognise inherent power imbalances in relationships between buyers and sellers, and we seek to empower producers to recognise the value that they can and do add to their product. We negotiate directly with them to agree on a farmgate price for parchment coffee that takes into consideration the cost of production, steps taken towards environmental preservation, and premiums for quality.
