Heresy is a Polish coffee roastery, offering specialty beans evaluated with at least 86 points. The brand focuses on selecting the most interesting microlots, emphasising above all the role of the farm, where most of the coffee's flavour is formed. The owners value constant cooperation with farmers, direct and sustainable distribution, and regular trips to the plantations.
The beans are conveniently packed in fully recyclable or reusable jars. The label describes the flavour in the form of a pie chart, consisting of fruity, floral or Maillard notes in varying proportions. The limited offer consists of three coffees roasted for filter methods and one dedicated to espresso.
The lack of the flavour notes, the focus on the role of farmers, the absence of brewing recipes or the 252-gram jars are just some of the "heresies" proclaimed by the brand's founders, to reform the approach to coffee.
The creators of Heresy are Piotr Jeżewski - Q-Grader and Vice Champion of Polish Roasting 2020, and Karolina Kosno, previously associated with Coffeedesk and Specialty Coffee Association.

Heresy - Ethiopia Bensa Keramo Kebele Natural Filter 252 g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 16.09.2025
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Ethiopia, roasted by Heresy roasting brand. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. The brew resembles the flavour of flowers, blueberries, wine, and citrus fruit.Country: EthiopiaRegion: BensaFarm: Keramo KebeleVariety: 74158Processing method: NaturalAltitude: 2050 m a.s.l.Cupping Score: 87 / 100ABOUT THE PRODUCERFor Nguisse, coffee cultivation is far more than just another agricultural activity. For many Ethiopians, coffee is a symbol, a source of national pride, and a way of life – and Nguisse, a finalist in last year’s Cup of Excellence, is certainly part of this group. His small farm of around 8 hectares is located in Bensa, which we consider one of the best regions in Ethiopia when it comes to quality potential. The farms here rise well above 2000 meters above sea level and are often planted with carefully selected, single botanical varieties.ABOUT THE PROCESSThis is a classic natural process, a method that originated in Ethiopia, where coffee seeds are dried inside the whole cherry. Freshly picked cherries go through an initial selection to remove any with defects. The chosen cherries are then spread out on so-called “African beds” – long raised tables, sometimes stretching dozens of meters, with mesh foundations that allow air to circulate freely. This ensures even airflow throughout the process and results in consistent drying. Depending on the weather, the drying takes between 25 and 30 days.ROASTER’S NOTESThis January marked our second visit to Ethiopia, but it was the first time we purchased coffee directly from Nguisse. Every summer, we eagerly await the arrival of the Ethiopian container, and this year’s lot from Bensa didn’t disappoint. This ultra-sweet coffee tastes just as good now as it did months ago on the cupping table in Addis Ababa – dense and creamy in body, with ripe blueberry, floral, and citrus notes. All wrapped in the winey character so typical of both the process and the region.
Heresy - Pastor Universal Heretic Blend 252g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 14.10.2025
A blend of specialty quality coffees, roasted at Heresy roastery by the 2020 Roasting Vice-Champion. Dark roasted, designed to be brewed in an espresso machine, café, frenchpress or pour-over methods of brewing or brewing in a cup. Profile with low acidity and higher bitterness.This is the most budget-friendly coffee in Heresy's portfolio and perhaps the most heretical! Pastor is a blend of coffees from the previous season, which proves that there is nothing wrong with transparently communicating the harvest date! We roast this coffee darker, though in a way that makes it suitable for a variety of brewing methods. It will work especially well in an espresso machine or a mokka pot, and for fans of lower acidity, higher bitterness and sweet chocolate and caramel notes, also in filter methods. That's why we call it an all-purpose blend. Pastor doesn't offer coffees eternal life, but gives a second one to those that deserve it!WHAT A HERESYAlmost every roaster has some coffee left over from the previous crop when new, fresher coffee from the last harvest comes in. These beans are often still good, especially if their quality was high from the beginning, although it usually happens that they lose some intensity and sometimes there are notes associated with some woody impression which appear. There are different ideas about how to use them. Quite a few roasters sell them at regular price, without disclosing the harvest date, some add them to cheaper blends, others try to hide the flavor with darker roasting or aromatization. To put the emphasis on fresh, up-to-date crops in our offerings, we always include their dates in the description of our lots. We dream of making this an industry standard! So that the consumer can more consciously judge quality and freshness against price. Meanwhile, there is nothing wrong with "past crops" themselves, if we say so directly and price them accordingly lower. It may be one of the few such approaches in the market, but it's time to bring a little more transparency to the subject of past crop coffees!COFFEEVariety: blendProcessing: blendProducer: blendFarm: blendOrigin: blendElevation: variousHarvest: harvest from the previous season!Cupping score: coffees scoring a minimum of 86 / 100 points when cupping on fresh beansROASTER'S REVIEWIf you are a coffee geek looking for flowers and fruits in your coffee - this is not the product for you. If you are instead looking for a gift for your mother, grandmother or someone who has not yet explored the world of specialty coffee and prefers darker classic coffees - we have it! It's a good coffee, and by using beans from previous harvests, it also has a much lower price, because we sell it 'at cost value'! It's also our way of 'less waste', because some great beans were standing in our warehouse, with no idea what to do with them. And that's how PASTor came into being.PACKAGINGThe coffee is packed in a brown jar made of PET, 100% recyclable or reusable. In case you're thinking "oh no, plastic!", bear in mind that standard coffee packaging is also made of plastic (and a few other materials, making it often harder to recycle). We also thought about glass, but it's heavier, more expensive, breakable and, wait for it, has the same or greater (sic!) environmental impact! A plastic jar turns out to be pretty eco-friendly, just remember to put it in the right container, or find a creative way to reuse it at home.

Heresy - Guatemala Huehuetenango La Maravilla Filter 252g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 23.09.2025
Specialty beans from Guatemala, roasted at Heresy by the 2020 Polish Roasting Vice-Champion. Light roast, designed for filter or cup brewing. The profile is characterized by a high chocolaty sweetness, and a round body contrasted by pronounced fruitiness.Country: GuatemalaRegion: HuehuetenangoFarm: La MaravillaProducer: Mauricio RosalesVariety: CaturraProcess: WashedAltitude: 1500 - 1850 m a.s.l.Harvest: February 2020Cupping score: 86.5 / 100 pointsPROCESSINGA washed classic of the highest caliber. Mauricio is an expert like no other. At first, he makes sure that only cherries with a deep maroon color go into the process. The beans are depulped as soon as they arrive at the washing station. Then, before washing, a 36-hours dry fermentation occurs. The coffee dries on the patio for about two weeks, depending on the weather conditions. The result? Ultra-ripe cherries gave this gem high sweetness. Clear fruitiness, on the other hand, is typical for the high-elevation caturra from this region. And the clarity of flavor is mainly due to Mauricio's many years of experience in coffee processing.THE FARMLa Maravilla means "the wonderland" in Spanish. The farm is located in the spectacular, high mountains of Huehuetenango. Despite the fact that not so long ago it could only be reached on horseback, thanks to Mauricio's hard work we’re driving a 4x4 to get there. With tinted windows, naturally. Until today you won't post anything on Instagram at La Maravilla though. What a tragedy! There's no signal on the farm. No electricity neither. But Mauricio's wife, Amavilia, makes the best tacos ever! Pure consolation.ROASTER'S COMMENTAn elegant, well-structured and round coffee. No aggressive strokes or unforeseen twists. Yet there's a lot of stuff going on! High, chocolaty-caramely sweetness with a clear fruity twist. There's a reason Mauricio was a Cup of Excellence finalist last year - his coffees are always in a class of their own!
Heresy - Antidotum Filter 1001g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 28.10.2025
Some 75% of all coffee produced in the world comes from Brazil, the vast majority being commercial grand blends from around the region. In the world of speciality coffee, we have to deal with those as well. That's why we created the Antidote, a coffee that is an antidote to the flood of santos, cerrados, and other coffees, that are far from transparent and demonstrating the producer's role in the whole process. This is for fans of the classics who do not let go of quality. For those who value true fair trade. The first classic brazil in our range!Specialty quality bean coffee, roasted at Heresy roastery by the 2020 Roasting Runner-up. Light roasted, designed for pour-over brewing methods or pour-over in a cup. A profile with a classic Brazilian flavour, with nut and chocolate notes, in the highest quality.Country: BrazilProducer: 20 members of San Coffee CooperativeFarm: San CoffeeVarietal: mundo novo, topazio, catuaiProcessing: naturalAltitude: 900 - 1200 m a.s.l.PROCESSING20 manufacturers, the same natural processing technique calibrated between them. Thanks to close cooperation and rigid standards, each lot is processed and dried in an almost identical manner.THE FARMSan Coffee is a rarity in Brazil. Most co-operatives in the country are made up of hundreds or thousands of producers, whose role is often limited to just supplying the coffee, nothing else. San Coffee is made up of only 20 producers who also own the company, with equally distributed shares of 5% each. We have been working with them since the very beginning of Heresy, presenting fruity microlots like Taquaral, Campo Alegre and Samambaia. This time it's time for the classic product of their work!ROASTER'S COMMENTIn the cup as classically as possible. Acidity practically invisible, shadow work. Chocolate and nuts in the liquid form.
