Coffeelab Coffee

COFFEELAB is a Warsaw-based specialty coffee roastery built on three core pillars: quality, precision, and taste. From the very beginning, our focus has been on sourcing the finest green coffee, carefully selected from plantations around the world. We roast both classic single origins and coffees from less obvious regions, unafraid to explore unconventional beans with experimental processing methods and discover new flavor profiles — all to ensure that every cup is full of character.Behind the brand stand passionate people — experienced roasters and baristas who truly understand coffee. Many have been with us since day one, and their knowledge and dedication form the foundation of our roastery. Thanks to them, every batch is refined down to the smallest detail — from sourcing to the final roast profile. It’s the people, their expertise, and our shared obsession with coffee that make COFFEELAB more than just a roastery — it’s a community built around flavor, precision, and passion for what we do every day.

COFFEELAB - Ethiopia Banko Gotiti CM Filter 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 27.10.2026

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Ethiopia, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of melon, passionfruit and kombucha.Country: EthiopiaRegion: Gedeb, YirgacheffeVarietal: HeirloomProcessing: Carbonic MacerationAltitude: 2100–2250 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE COFFEEToday, somewhat out of the spotlight, Carbonic Maceration was once a highly sought-after processing method. Banko Gotiti reminds us why it attracted so much interest. For starters, it has little in common with a classic Ethiopia. There’s plenty of sweet, tropical fruit here: melon, passion fruit, pineapple, and lychee, with a pleasantly sparkling acidity. You know that feeling when a lightly fizzy drink tickles your palate? That’s the kind of tropical tickle Banko Gotiti has in store for you (it reminds us of kombucha). :)ABOUT THE PROCESSING AND VARIETYCM stands for Carbonic Maceration, a technique borrowed from winemaking. Saša Šestić brought it into the coffee spotlight by presenting it at the World Barista Championship. It showed just how much you can bring out of a coffee by changing the way fermentation is managed.In coffee processing, it works like this: first, the cherries go into sealed tanks, where carbon dioxide is introduced to displace oxygen and create conditions for anaerobic fermentation. By controlling the temperature and fermentation time, producers influence the coffee’s acidity, body, and character. This processing method can highlight fruitiness, intensify aromas, and give the coffee a more concentrated flavour. Quite a few possibilities for a stage that happens before the beans are even dried.Here, the starting point is local varieties collectively known as heirloom, grown at 2,100–2,250 metres above sea level in Gedeb, in the Yirgacheffe region. It’s one of the regions whose coffees we reach for regularly. We hope Banko Gotiti finds a permanent place in your coffee rotation, too.Store in a cold and dry space.

COFFEELAB - Cascara Costa Rica Hacienda Sonora 200 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 19.10.2026

Cascara is dried peel of the coffee cherry which allows you to prepare delicious brew. You’ll notice notes of apples, pear and mirabelle.Country: Costa RicaRegion: AlajuelaVarietal: blendFarm: Hacienda SonoraProcessing: NaturalAltitude: 1300 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE PRODUCTCascara is simply the dried skin of the coffee cherry. In coffee production, it’s a by-product that can end up in compost, but it has a much tastier use too: you can brew a really delicious drink from it.When we came across cascara from Hacienda Sonora, we all agreed it tasted exactly like Grandma’s summer fruit compote. The kind that’s still warm, just taken off the stove, full of apples, pears, and plums. That’s why we wrote the flavour profile exactly that way.You can brew it like tea, in a French press, or cold. It also works brilliantly as a base for refreshing drinks. Oh, one more thing: compared with coffee, cascara contains very little caffeine.Store in a cold and dry space.

COFFEELAB - Brazil Fazenda Vivir Café Filter 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 21.09.2026

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Brazil, roasted in Warsaw by CoffeeLab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of dried apricot, muscovado and rice tea.Origin: BrazilRegion: Cerrado MineiroFarm: Fazenda Vivir CaféVariety: Red CatuaíProcessing: Induced FermentationAltitude: 1100 m a.s.l.Brazil from the Veloso sisters is a proper sweet one for filter: sticky and dessert-like. Just right over a few ice cubes when you feel like a cold coffee that leans more sweet than fruity and juicy. You won’t find high acidity or a citrusy kick here. Instead, there are notes of dried fruit, like sweet apricot, alongside the darker, deeper sweetness of muscovado sugar. The finish reminds us of rice tea: gently toasted, smooth, with a pleasantly sticky texture.ABOUT THE FARMBehind this coffee are Virgínia and Viviane Veloso, sisters and co-founders of Vivir Café. Their family has been working with coffee in Cerrado Mineiro for over 50 years, and today they produce coffee across six farms, focusing on specialty Arabica, quality and a more conscious approach to farming. This lot is Red Catuaí grown at 1100 m a.s.l., processed as a natural with 48 hours of induced fermentation.Store in a cold and dry space.

COFFEELAB - Colombia Finca Quebraditas Filter 200 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 27.10.2026

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Colombia, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of banana, hard candy, vanilla and raspberry.Country: ColombiaRegion: OporapaVarietal: SL28Processing: Double Fermented NaturalAltitude: 1650 – 1800 m a.s.l.Farm: QuebraditasABOUT THE COFFEE - PROCESSING AND VARIETYSL28, a variety well known from Kenya, lands in Colombia and suddenly starts playing a different tune. It’s a meeting of two very different worlds, something you’d expect more from fusion cuisine. On paper, it shouldn’t really work, yet in the cup, it comes together in a surprisingly coherent way: right from the start, there’s banana, but not the fresh kind, more like banana sweets, followed by a sticky, candy-like texture and deep, layered fruit sweetness. If you’re after a calm, low-acidity coffee, you’re looking in the wrong place.Banana notes, coincidence? Not quite. During fermentation, esters are formed, including isoamyl acetate, which is responsible for those characteristic banana-like aromas. The variety itself plays a major role. In Kenya, SL28 is known for its high acidity, juiciness, and defined structure, but in the Colombian terroir, it softens, becoming rounder and sweeter, which translates into that slightly candy-like texture in the cup. The raspberry and strawberry sweetness, in turn, comes from the processing, which amplifies the fruit character and builds complexity while keeping the profile in check.The variety already does a lot of the heavy lifting, but without this processing, the profile simply wouldn’t come together. Everything here revolves around controlled fermentation and working with the sugars in the fruit. Harvesting is carried out with a strong focus on ripeness, with at least 80% of the cherries fully ripe before moving forward. After flotation, the coffee undergoes a first 72-hour fermentation, followed by drying down to around 20% moisture. At that point, the process is deliberately paused, the coffee is rehydrated, and goes through a second fermentation with selected yeasts. It is then finished with controlled drying at around 40°C and stabilised in bags. The result is a layered, intense sweetness, achieved without letting the profile drift into heavy, alcoholic territory.ABOUT THE FARMFinca Quebraditas is a young project, but one built on its own terms from the start. Edinson Argote and Ángela Rojas focus on full process control and developing their own flavour language. Oporapa in Huila still sits outside the specialty mainstream, and their goal is to highlight the potential of the entire region through consistent, ground-up work. Lots like this SL28, as well as their earlier Thermal Shock releases, show just how far that can go.This is one of those coffees that evolves in the cup. As it cools, it opens up further, revealing more fermented, deeper notes and adding even more depth to the overall profile.Store in a cold and dry space.

COFFEELAB - Costa Rica Alvarado Fonseca Familia Natural Anaerobic Filter 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 05.10.2026

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Costa Rica, roasted in Warsaw by CoffeeLab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of cherry liqueur, wild strawberry and grapefruit.Origin: Costa RicaRegion: ChirripóFarm: Corazón de JesúsVariety: PeaberryProcessing: Natural AnaerobicAltitude: 1800 – 1950 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE COFFEECosta Rica Alvarado Fonseca Family is another peaberry* that completely won us over. There is something of cherry liqueur to it: lightly fermented, deep and intense. But instead of drifting into a heavy, boozy ferment, it stays on the light side of the Force: fresh, bright, and grapefruit-leaning.Our first impression? Cherries in a liqueur-like, very sweet form. The grapefruit note is there to show clarity, freshness, and citrusy acidity. During our tests, the brew came out expressive, but not overwhelming. Fruity, clea,n and juicy. Not too light, not too heavy. Just right.The coffee comes from the Chirripó region in Costa Rica, from farms located at 1800–1950 m a.s.l. Behind the lot stands the Alvarado Fonseca Family, a producer family connected with the Corazón de Jesús micro-mill. Jhon Alvarado Abarca, also known as Johny, regularly appears among the top names in Cup of Excellence, and his work shows what you can achieve with experience, ambition, and constant process refinement.This lot was processed as natural anaerobic, which helps build deep, fermented fruitiness without taking away the coffee’s clarity. And that is exactly what we liked most about it: the intensity is clear, but kept in check. A good example of a thoughtful combination of peaberry selection and process.We especially recommend this lot to people who enjoy fruity-fermented intensity, but care just as much about balance. There is energy and depth here. But there is also lightness and freshness.*Peaberry is a natural anomaly: instead of two flat seeds developing inside the coffee cherry, there is one smaller, rounder seed. In practice, it can often give a more concentrated and intense flavour.Store in a cold and dry space.

Coffeelab - Costa Rica Hacienda Sonora SL28 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Costa Rica, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of white wine, tangerine and vanilla.Country: Costa RicaRegion: Central ValleyVarietal: SL28Processing: Natural PyramidAltitude: 1300 m a.s.l.Farm: Hacienda SonoraABOUT THE COFFEEThis might be the most delicate SL28 we’ve tasted so far: smooth, soft and distinctly sweet. Vanilla captures its character well, both in flavour and in the pleasant way it feels on the tongue. There’s a subtle fermented edge in the background, which we’ve described as white wine. Its delicate character keeps you coming back for more.We mainly associate SL28 with Kenya, where it was selected in the 1930s at Scott Agricultural Laboratories. Fun fact: that’s where the SL in the name comes from. Over time, the variety also made its way to Latin America.PROCESSING, REGION, FARMThese journeys are a good reminder that a variety’s name alone doesn’t tell you how a coffee will taste. Where it grows (its terroir) and how it’s processed have their say too.Natural Pyramid refers to a particular way of drying whole coffee cherries. After picking, the fruit is washed and sorted in water to separate out lighter, less developed cherries. The cherries then dry on patios for around nine days. Every afternoon, workers gather them into small, pyramid-shaped mounds. Hence the name.Inside these mounds, the cherries retain heat for longer during the cooler nights. This helps limit temperature swings and allows fermentation and drying to progress more steadily. Finally, the coffee goes into a mechanical dryer to even out the beans’ final moisture content. The whole process allows for greater control and consistency.Hacienda Sonora lies in Costa Rica’s Central Valley and has been in the Guardia family for over a century. Today, Alberto and his son Diego run the farm. They grow more than 20 coffee varieties across 80 hectares, with a further 20 hectares kept as a protected forest.Store in a cold and dry space.

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Honduras, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of hops, dried apple and lemonade.Country: HondurasRegion: Mercedes, OporapaVarietal: ParainemaProcessing: Anaerobic Champagne YeastAltitude: 1200 m a.s.l.Farm: CascaritasA real treat for anyone who prefers gentler coffees with moderate acidity. This Parainema is sweet, light and easy to drink. There’s something herbal and hoppy about it, alongside hints of dried apple and lemonade.ABOUT THE COFFEEAutumn is here, so we’re keeping up our tradition of returning to coffees from Cascaritas, the farm of our friend Hidardo Hernández. This year, we’re starting with a Parainema fermented anaerobically with champagne yeast!Hidardo has spent years experimenting with yeasts, coffee varieties and microbial cultures. He uses well-studied wine yeasts to give him greater control over fermentation. “Feel the terroir & play with it,” says Hernández, emphasising that flavour and aroma should work together to reflect where the coffee comes from.Ripe cherries are picked by hand, sorted in water, washed and partially depulped. The coffee then goes into 200-litre barrels with champagne yeast, where it ferments without oxygen for 36 hours. It dries for around 15 days with the remaining layer of fruit pulp still attached to the beans. Finally, the coffee is packed in GrainPro bags and sent to Cafesmo’s warehouse for quality assessment.ABOUT THE FARMHidardo Hernández is a fourth-generation coffee producer. He helps run the Cafesmo cooperative and runs a café with his fiancée, but it’s Cascaritas, just two minutes from his home, that means the most to him.He runs the farm with his mother in Plan del Rosario, in the municipality of Mercedes in the department of Ocotepeque. Its 3.5 hectares sit at around 1,250 metres above sea level. Since 2015, he has been producing his own microlots here, experimenting with anaerobic fermentation and other processing methods. Alongside these, he produces more approachable natural, honey and washed coffees.The farm is surrounded by pine trees typical of the region. Banana, American walnut, guamo and other trees provide additional shade, forming a natural canopy over the coffee plants.Store in a cold and dry space.

Coffeelab - Kenya Inoi Ndimi AA 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Kenya, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of red cranberry, red currant and biscoff.Country: KenyaRegion: KirinyagaVarietal: SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11, BatianProcessing: WashedAltitude: 1650–1800 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE COFFEEIt’s been a bumper year for delicious Kenyan coffees, and we couldn’t be happier. With our latest arrival, Inoi Ndimi, we’re keeping those summer fruit flavours going a little longer. It’s all red fruit, freshness and sweetness, with a hint of biscuit in the background signalling cooler days ahead.Red gooseberry and redcurrant give this coffee its distinctly red-fruit character. They capture both its fruitiness and its lively, juicy acidity. There’s plenty of biscuity sweetness too, with a gently spiced edge. Hence Biscoff in our tasting notes: those familiar caramelised, spiced biscuits. A little summer, a little autumn, and a lovely meeting of the two in your cup.The coffee comes from smallholder farmers in Kirinyaga, at the foot of Mount Kenya. Once picked, the cherries go to Ndimi washing station, which belongs to the Inoi cooperative.The beans undergo a traditional washed process. First, a machine removes the skin and most of the fruit’s flesh. Fermentation then helps break down the remaining sticky layer, which is washed off with water. Finally, the coffee dries on raised beds. This method encourages a clear cup in which the individual flavours are easy to pick out.Store in a cold and dry space.

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Tanzania, roasted in Warsaw by CoffeeLab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of rhubarb, red grapefruit and tea.Origin: TanzaniaRegion: SongweFarm: ItumpiVariety:  N 39, KT 423 (peaberry)Processing: WashedAltitude: 1500 – 1700 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE COFFEEThey are already here! Just as the warm weather has settled in for good, the first fresh harvests from Africa are starting to arrive. Itumpi from Tanzania clearly reminds us why we value coffees from this part of the continent: crisp, juicy brews with a large dose of freshness.In taste, Itumpi leans towards green-red rhubarb and pink grapefruit. The acidity is distinct and pleasantly juicy. In mouthfeel, the coffee is light, tea-like, and clean, with a crisp finish that practically begs to be brewed over ice.The enigmatic PB stands for peaberry. It refers to a natural anomaly where, instead of two flat beans, a single, smaller, and rounder bean develops inside the coffee cherry. Sometimes overlooked, though completely unfairly, because it can yield a very intense, concentrated flavor. It was this intensity that stole our taste buds from among the other grades.The raw material comes from the Itumpi cooperative in the Mbozi district, Songwe region. About 160 local producers operate here, cultivating coffee at an altitude of 1500–1700 meters above sea level. Since 2019, the cooperative has been producing fully washed coffees using their own wet mill. With such a crisp, acidic profile, this method fits like a glove.Store in a dry and cool place.

You can taste the result of this care in Malolo coffee – clean, vibrant, and well-balanced, as if every small effort from the farmers came together in one clear profile.The cherries are hand-picked, usually in several passes through the trees to ensure only fully ripe fruit is selected. They are then delivered to the washing station, where they are pulped, fermented, washed, and dried either on patios or raised beds until they reach the right moisture level. This straightforward, classic method produces a transparent profile that highlights bright citrus and herbal notes.ROASTER’S NOTESThis year’s Tanzanian harvest kept surprising us.

COFFEELAB - Uganda Jukia Natural Anaerobic Filter 250 g

Manufacturer: COFFEELAB

Roasting date: 21.10.2026

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Uganda, roasted in Warsaw by Coffeelab. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. In the cup, you can expect the hints of plum, maple sirup and spices.Country: UgandaRegion: West Nile, ZomboFarm: Jukia MicrostationVarietal: SL14Processing: Natural AnaerobicAltitude: 1250 m n.p.m.ABOUT THE COFFEEWe knew at first glance that this would be an interesting coffee. An anaerobically fermented Uganda? After the first cupping, our taste buds had spoken: this was autumn in a cup! Expect dried fruit and gentle spice, as if drizzled with maple syrup, all with a subtly fermented edge.The SL14 cherries are first carefully sorted by hand and then in water. Next, they go into sealed, 240-litre containers, where they ferment for 72 hours without air entering. Afterwards, they are spread out on raised drying beds in the sun. The cherries dry whole, as you would expect from a natural process, while the team regularly checks their moisture levels and turns them gently to avoid damaging the fruit.It all happens at Jukia Microstation in Zombo District, north-western Uganda. Built in 2022 by Zombo Coffee Partners, the station is managed by the company and processes harvests from over 300 local farmers. The partnership goes well beyond delivering ripe cherries, though. Farmers also learn to make compost and liquid fertilisers, grow legumes between their coffee plants and plant shade trees. Add mulching and digging trenches to protect the soil from being washed away during heavy rain. Plenty of groundwork… literally. According to Zombo Coffee Partners, healthier soil was one of the factors that helped the 2024 harvest reach nearly twice the size of the previous season’s.All that’s left is to decorate the label with leaves and conkers, then curl up under a blanket with a freshly brewed cup. Or grab a coffee to go and head out for a stroll in the warm autumn light.RECIPEMethod: Origami (dripper)Dose: 18gTime: 3:15Yield: 300gTemperature: 93°CGrind: coarsePlace the Origami with the server or mug on the scale, start the timer, and at the designated second/minute pour in a circular motion up to the target weight specified in the recipe.POUR TIME / WEIGHT:0:00 - 50gstir, 0:30 - 100g1:00 - 150g1:30 - 200g2:00 - 250g2:30 - 300g (final pour, allow the coffee to draw down)Stir the brewed coffee before tasting.Store in a cool, dry place.
