June 11, 2018 - Colombia "Los Cauchos"

The Story:

We tried something a little different here. For the first time, we hosted a free "public cupping" at Rapha in Santa Monica. Those who showed up (pictured below) helped us sift through 5x "test batches" of Colombian coffees from various regions. What we ultimately decided on was "mystery test batch 4" - aka, this delightfully bright batch from producer Giovanny Liscano at his "Los Cauchos" farm.

May 29, 2018 - Ethiopia Kochere Debo

The Story:

Every year around this time (as May morphs into June), things just get busy. Weddings and travel and work and things. It's a lot! We hope you're able to slow down for a few minutes each morning with this new batch from producer Mergia Assefa - in the southern Ehtiopia growing region of Kochere. We dig the mellow acidity and chocolate-coated berry vibe. Enjoy folks!
