Equator Coffees: Decaf Kenya Thirikuโ€”The delicious single origin decaf coffee offers a deep, vibrant acidity and was decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process of caffeine extraction, without the use of chemical solvents.
The Nyeri region in Central Kenya is famed for its bright, fruity, and dynamic coffeesโ€” and members of its Thiriku cooperative are now receiving higher prices than ever for their high quality cherries.

Greater Goods Roasting: Rung’eto PBโ€”Rarely has a coffee release synced up with the start of a season quite like this one. Hailing from Kirinyaga County in central Kenya, this peaberry lot is the warm, comforting, hot cocoa in front of the fire – the spirit of winter in coffee form. Peaberry makes up about 10% of Kenyaโ€™s coffee export and is highly sought out for its depth of sweetness and a thick, syrupy body. You can enjoy your winter days with notes of golden apple, black treacle, and red currant jam.

Night Swim Coffee

aurora borealis roasters village sprudge

Night Swim Coffee: Blue Orchid – Sumatraโ€”Typically we expect specialty grade coffees to come from mountainous regions along the equator. Brazil, Colombia, Honduras, and Ethiopia rank among the largest coffee producing countries in the world, but I think people would be surprised to know that both Vietnam and Indonesia are #2 and #4 on that list. Connecting people to the places where coffee comes from, our core effort at Night Swim, provides us some unique opportunities to tell the stories of all kinds of coffee, not just ones weโ€™re familiar with or are currently popular in the US market.

Over the next few months, weโ€™ll begin highlighting coffees from China, El Salvador, Tanzania, Bolivia and this beautiful coffee from Indonesia. You can find coffees from these regions roasted by great roasters around the globe, but theyโ€™re new to Night Swim. I think a lot of coffee drinkers are probably really unfamiliar with coffees from Asia, and as we started thinking about how we wanted to focus our coffee menu for the upcoming months, we were simply excited to drink coffees that we donโ€™t interact with very often.

This is a semi-washed or โ€œwet-hulledโ€ coffee from Sumatra, Indonesia. Itโ€™s fruity-sweet, tropical, and finishes like one of our favorite candy bars. Weโ€™re thrilled to offer this first installment in our initiative to highlight underrepresented coffee growing regions!

Olympia Coffee Roasters

This exceptional single origin coffee represents one of our oldest direct trade relationships, and every sip reflects the meticulous care that goes into producing it. This yearโ€™s lot is supremely balanced with notes of candied citrus and milk chocolate with a soft, honeyed finish.
