Kenya Nyeri Ichuga
Located on the southwestern slopes of Mount Kenya, Nyeri County is one of the most famous coffee-producing areas not just in the country but in the entire world. Nyeri is home to the Kiama Farmers' Cooperative Society, consisting of over 3,000 members who deliver coffee cherries grown in the fertile, volcanic soil characteristic of this region. The Ichuga Factory, one of Kiama’s four wet mills, produced this delicious lot by selecting the ripest cherries and carefully processing them using fresh water from the Gathiururuko Stream, prior to drying the parchment on raised beds for approximately three weeks. This coffee bursts with blackcurrant, sweet tomato, tart cherry, and port wine rounded out by a syrupy body and crisp acidity. Enjoy!

Colectivo @ Origin
Starting in 1993, we began sourcing coffee from origin. Through developing long-term farmer and co-op partnerships, we can be involved in every step of creating a great coffee experience. By nature, sourcing and roasting delicious coffee can seem like a moving target, and over the last 20 years we have embraced a culture of continual improvement to bolster our efforts. We now offer a wide range of wonderful coffees. From our “Featured Farm Series” of extremely limited, special lots to our carefully managed Single Origin and legacy blends, there is something for every palate. And if we've learned one thing along the way, it's that there is always more work to be done.

Roasted In Riverwest
Every single bean we source is roasted, blended, packaged, and shipped fresh from our roastery in the Riverwest neighborhood in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. All of our coffee is roasted by hand on two very-old-but-very-awesome, manually operated Probat roasters, and all of our blending is done after roasting.
