About this shop

What the shop says
In the shop's own words, summarized by us.
They focus on taste over labels and certifications, visiting origin to see farm and community conditions firsthand as part of sustainable, ethically harvested, fairly traded sourcing. They work with reputable importers and sometimes directly with farmers, prioritizing long-term quality over simply chasing certifications. Decaf is made using a methylene chloride process they consider better-tasting and more environmentally sustainable than the water method.
