Thanks to this, this "regional blend" is not a random mix, but a raw material finalized with a single processing standard, in one place, and under one supervision. Forest Coffee builds this project under the "Innovation" label and speaks openly about the goal: repeatability, transparency, and real added value for producers.ABOUT THE VARIETYCaturra + Colombia. Two classic Colombian varieties in a blend that provide a solid base of sweetness and structure, while the processing finishes all the aromatic "heavy lifting."ABOUT THE PROCESSINGFirst, cherry selection, then 24 hours in bags (pre-fermentation), followed by another 24 hours of whole cherry fermentation. After depulping, the beans undergo anaerobic fermentation with yeast and a cherry aromatic component. Finally, mechanical drying (approx. 10 days) and stabilization in GrainPro (approx. 30 days).RECIPERatio: 60 g of coffee per 1 liter of waterWater temperature: 93°CGrind size: medium-coarseBrewing time: 3:30 minutesMethod: Pour the water over the coffee in 5 equal parts (e.g., 5x 60g) at 30-second intervals.The water should completely filter through the coffee between pours.If the water flows too slowly or too quickly, adjust the grind size to coarser/finer.Remember to use soft, filtered water!Store in a cold and dry space.
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Colombia, roasted by Hard Beans from Poland. 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 notes of cherry, blackberry and honey.Origin: ColombiaRegion: Palestina, Huila Variety: Bourbon SidraFarm: San GabrielProcessing: Natural Altitude: 1710 m n.p.m.ABOUT THE FARMSan Gabriel Farm is a family-owned coffee plantation with over 50 years of tradition, currently managed by the third generation. Around a decade ago, with the aim of participating in the prestigious Cup of Excellence competition, the farm began experimenting with varieties other than those traditionally grown in the region. For the past seven years, the farm has actively participated in this competition, achieving significant success, including second place in 2021. Don Linarco has been involved in coffee cultivation since his youth, working on the family farm. In 2014, after inheriting the land, he started his independent journey as a coffee producer. With great passion, he developed his skills across the entire production process, from sensory assessment (cupping) to coffee processing methods. Today, Don Linarco produces coffee using various techniques while also managing other farms.ABOUT THE VARIETYBourbon Sidra is an exceptional coffee variety, being a hybrid of two esteemed lineages: Bourbon and Typica (or according to some sources, Gesha). It is most commonly cultivated in Ecuador and Colombia. It is characterized by a complex flavor profile, where one can often find notes of tropical fruits, citrus, and florals, complemented by a delicate sweetness. The whole profile is completed by a bright, vibrant acidity and a clean finish. Due to its uniqueness and rarity on the market, this variety is frequently used in barista competitions.THE PROCESS The coffee cherries are hand-picked and carefully selected. They are then subjected to a washing process, during which floating cherries are removed from the surface of the water. The next stage is a 90-hour fermentation in hermetically sealed barrels. After fermentation, the cherries are dried under cover for about 28 days, and the final stabilization lasts for 15 days.A coffee for explorers. Lightly roasted, with dark fruits in the aroma. Blackberries, sweet cherries. All of this bathed in honey.

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.

You can expect hints of cranberry, cocoa, grapefruit and balsamico.Origin: IndonesiaRegion: FloresProcessing: Anaerobic NaturalVariety: Yellow Typica, CaturraAltitude: 1400-1700 m a.s.l.TUANG COFFEEBehind this coffee is Tuang Coffee – an organization operating in the Manggarai region on the Indonesian island of Flores. Its history began in 2014, when Andre Tuang returned to his homeland to support local producers and improve coffee cultivation conditions.Today, Tuang Coffee works with thousands of farmers, offering them training, financial support, and a transparent compensation system. It is also involved in the development of local communities, funding education, infrastructure, and support programs for coffee-farming families.ABOUT THE REGION AND PROCESSINGShrubs of the Yellow Typica, Caturra, and Kartika varieties grow at an altitude of 1400–1700 meters above sea level, surrounded by the lush vegetation of Flores. This combination of terroir, farmers' experience, and careful processing builds the unique character of this coffee.The lot underwent anaerobic natural processing – carefully selected cherries fermented in anaerobic conditions in a darkened room, and then were moved to raised drying beds. There, over several weeks, they slowly developed their sweetness and intensity.The long, controlled fermentation and drying process allowed for the preservation of both juicy fruit notes and deeper accents of cocoa and balsamico, creating a rich and multidimensional profile.ROASTER'S OPINIONFlores is a coffee that catches your attention from the very first sip with its intensity and complexity. Distinct, juicy, and full of character, it constantly surprises with its changing flavor profile. At first, a pleasant fruity freshness appears – notes of cranberry and pink grapefruit bring a vibrant acidity and juiciness that gives the cup energy and lightness.Over time, the coffee reveals a deeper, more complex side. The fruity accents smoothly transition into notes of cocoa, which add sweetness and a velvety texture, while the whole experience is completed by a subtle, balsamic character that introduces an elegant depth and a long finish.This is a coffee with a rich aroma and a multi-layered profile that develops with temperature, revealing further nuances with every sip. Intriguing, dynamic, and full of contrasts – ideal for individuals who appreciate coffees with a distinct personality and love discovering new flavors in every cup.Store in a dry and cool place.

Whole-bean specialty coffee beans from Brazil, roasted by COFFEE PLANT from Poland. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. You can expect hints of nuts, milk chocolate, and caramel.In this coffee, two exceptional Arabicas — India Ratnagiri and Brazil Lua Roxa — are combined to create a blend with a deep, dessert-like character that resembles one big chocolate brownie.It’s an excellent choice for fans of sweet, smooth, and full-flavored pour-overs. In its profile you’ll find notes of milk chocolate, roasted nuts, and caramel, which give it remarkable depth and harmony.Sweet coffees are desirable regardless of their country of origin or brewing method. It’s a universal quality that positively stimulates our senses. Flow Brownie is built on that quality, and the name of the blend is no coincidence.BREWINGFlow Brownie is a sweet coffee, but it also has a texture worth highlighting by using a higher coffee-to-water ratio.

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Colombia, roasted by Hard Beans from Poland. 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 notes of peach, red currant and vanilla.Origin: ColombiaRegion: HuilaVariety: Tabi, Yellow ColombiaFarm: Finca El Diviso / Finca Las FloresProcessing: WashedAltitude: 1700 – 1900 m a. s. l.ABOUT THE COFFEEThis is a blend of green beans from two farms in Pitalito, Huila: Finca El Diviso run by Nestor Lasso and Finca Las Flores run by Johan Vergara. These are names that genuinely matter on the competition scene. Coffees from El Diviso have won the World Barista Championship, and lots from Johan Vergara regularly appear in the routines of world-class competitors. In practice, this means one thing: the raw material is predictable, clean, and produced to meet the highest standards.This is a deliberate combination of two varieties. Tabi brings structure and elegance, often expressed as a more tea-like clarity and a stable, citrus-fruit acidity, while Yellow Colombia adds sweetness and juicy, ripe fruit character.Formally, this is a washed coffee, but processed in a way that strongly shapes the flavor profile. First, the fermentation is two-stage: an initial aerobic phase, followed by anaerobic submersion, designed to emphasize stone fruit notes (peach, apricot) rather than heavy, wine-like flavors. Second, after fermentation the coffee undergoes controlled hot/cold quenching, meaning contact with hot and cold water to stop the process at the right moment and preserve aromatic clarity. This is followed by natural drying under cover for greater stability and reduced risk of overheating, finished with mechanical drying in a silo, and at least 10 days of resting before final preparation.RECIPERatio: 60 g coffee per 1 liter of waterWater temperature: 93°CGrind size: Medium-coarseBrew time: 3:30 minutesMethod: Pour the water in five equal pours (for example, 5 × 60 g) at 30-second intervals.Allow the water to fully drain through the coffee between pours.If the water flows too slowly or too quickly, adjust the grind size coarser or finer.Remember to use soft, filtered water.Store in a cold and dry space.

I would never have made it to the Chiapas region in Mexico, and certainly not to Los Altos – the northeastern highlands of Chiapas, located about two hours from the state capital, San Cristóbal de las Casas.Andreas was my guide back then, and today he’s one of the funniest friends I have. Even though he now lives far away in the state of Veracruz, we still talk often. Coffee regions in this country are places where you need a pass – or at least a Mexican passport – to truly feel safe. During the long hours on the road, Andreas told me about the challenges local farmers face and about the NKG BLOOM program.In short, it’s an initiative supporting coffee producers around the world. Its goal is to help farmers develop their farms by providing access to financing, knowledge, modern technologies, and markets. This enables them to work more efficiently, increase their income, and lift themselves out of poverty. Traveling from farm to farm and visiting coffee warehouses, you could truly feel the financial and technological support behind the program.The state of Chiapas, where this coffee comes from, borders Veracruz and Oaxaca to the west, Tabasco to the north, and Guatemala to the east. It’s the same region, and the farms there are often just 20–30 kilometers apart. Yet traveling between them can take two to three hours due to road conditions. Despite such short distances, the flavor of the same botanical variety differs greatly from farm to farm. Microclimate and soil play a huge role.ABOUT THE COFFEEOur El Búho is a blend of Bourbon and Caturra varieties. It is a washed coffee.In the cup, you’ll find plenty of sweetness, reminiscent of milk chocolate and caramel. There is minimal yet noticeable fruitiness, bringing to mind mandarins or sweet oranges. As an espresso, it leans toward the sweeter side, lingering pleasantly on the palate. In milk-based drinks, it develops notes of toffee with a smooth texture.Mexico is an underrated coffee producer. Its complex history and current political situation do not make coffee imports easy – only 2% of the world’s available Arabica comes from this country. That makes us even more excited to shine a light on this origin and the coffees of the Chiapas region.Store in a cold and dry space.

Behind this project is Johnny Alvarado Abarca, who cultivates coffee in the Brunca region.In this bag, you will find the Villa Sarchi variety, a local mutation of Bourbon known for its elegant acidity and powerful sweetness. The experience is enhanced by the Natural Reposado process – the cherries "rest" in the cold for some time before drying, allowing the sugars from the pulp to maximally penetrate the bean. Thanks to this, the Los Tonos plot offers an incredibly syrupy body and notes of ripe red fruits, while maintaining exemplary brew clarity. It is the perfect balance between a modern approach to fermentation and classic, fruity drinkability that will work great in your drippers.Store in a cold and dry space.

Acidity? Calm, only lightly present, rather than stealing the show. If we had to sum it up in one word? Harmonious.The beans come from T’xayalaj, a small family-run farm in Huehuetenango, managed by Maria Perez Morales. Maria and her husband bought the land around a dozen years ago. When Diego left to find work abroad, she took over the farm and began developing it together with their children. Under her leadership, the farm produced its first specialty lots.While each of Guatemala’s eight coffee regions contains countless microclimates, each with its own character, Maria’s coffee reflects what we value most in classic washed Guatemalas: a comfort cup you can keep coming back to without overthinking it.Store in a cold and dry space.

Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods.You can expect hints of tropical fruits, strawberry, citrus fruits and flowers.Origin: HondurasFarm: Finca GonzaloVariety: ParainemaProcessing: HoneyAltitude: 1530 m a. s. l.ABOUT THE FARMSebastian Mejía Mejía runs Finca Gonzalo in La Peña, in the Santa Bárbara region of Honduras, at an altitude of 1,530 meters above sea level. He comes from a family of coffee growers who, after moving away from conventional production and spending a period raising cattle, eventually settled in their current location. It was here that Sebastian decided to focus on producing high-quality specialty coffee.The farm covers 2.8 hectares and yields approximately 70 quintals of coffee annually. The main variety is Parainema, complemented by a young Geisha plantation. About half of the coffee is grown under controlled shade. Sebastian uses fertilization based on chicken manure and coffee pulp, supplemented with local blends adjusted according to soil analysis. He regularly prunes the coffee trees and monitors pests and diseases such as coffee borer beetle, coffee leaf rust, and leaf spot. In addition to coffee, he also grows avocados, bananas, and blackberries, while preserving trees and minimizing the environmental impact of farming.PROCESSINGThe coffee is processed using the honey method. The cherries ferment for approximately 36 hours in plastic bags, after which they are depulped and undergo a second, dry fermentation lasting another 36 hours. After fermentation, the beans are dried in parabolic solar dryers for 15–18 days, with regular turning and hand sorting. Once dried, the coffee is packed and stored on the farm before being delivered to the exporter San Vicente. The honey process requires minimal water usage, supporting sustainable and responsible production.ROASTER’S OPINIONSebastian Mejía’s Parainema shows two distinct faces that complement each other exceptionally well. On one hand, it offers medium, well-developed, and complex acidity typical of the Parainema variety. On the other, the influence of the honey process is clearly evident, delivering high sweetness and an intensely fruity, juicy profile.The aroma is very pleasant and enveloping, dominated by notes of ripe strawberries and citrus, supported by subtle floral accents that add lightness and elegance. On the palate, the coffee unfolds in layers: pronounced sweetness of tropical fruits and strawberries combines with lively, clean acidity reminiscent of various ripe citrus fruits.Despite its high sweetness and noticeable acidity, the cup remains very well balanced, smooth, and free of bitterness. The coffee is fresh, refreshing, and extremely drinkable, while still surprising with its intensity and clarity of flavor—especially for a coffee from Honduras. It is a proposition that blends varietal classicism with the modern, fruit-forward character of the honey process.BREWINGUse your preferred method and recipe. Brew this coffee like any other, using water at around 95°C. It is very forgiving and difficult to mess up. Store in a cold and dry space.
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Uganda, roasted in Poland by COFFEE PLANT. Dark roast, perfect for espresso, coffee machines, and moka pots. You can expect hints of caramel, peach, lemon and black tea.Country: UgandaRegion: Kasese DistrictFarm: Bugoye Washing StationProducent: Kyagalanyi Coffee Varietal: SL14, SL28Processing: Fully WashedAltitude: 1700-2200 m a.s.l.ABOUT THE REGION AND THE FARMThe magnificent Rwenzori Mountains, known as the "Mountains of the Moon," stretch for over 120 km across western Uganda. High altitude, fertile volcanic soils, abundant rainfall, and appropriate temperatures create ideal conditions for growing high-quality coffee, while rivers flowing from the snow-capped peaks effectively irrigate the surrounding areas.Farmers delivering coffee cherries to the Bugoye washing station cultivate coffee trees on very small farms (approx. 2 acres), working by hand, often with the help of their entire families. This is because coffee serves as their primary source of income. Although the region is mainly famous for natural process coffees, washed coffees are also produced here—and that is exactly what this coffee is.Due to difficult access, many farms can only be reached on foot. To facilitate sales, 18 collection points were established, from which the coffee is transported for further processing. The mission of the Bugoye station is sustainable development, supported by professional agronomists working directly with local farmers.ABOUT THE PROCESSINGThe coffee cherries delivered to Bugoye are grown and harvested at altitudes between 1,700 and 2,200 meters above sea level. In addition to washed coffees, the station itself produces classic naturals, honey-processed coffees, and has also begun conducting experiments with fermentation. After the processing phase, the coffees were exported by Kyagalanyi Coffee, which is the first company in Uganda to receive a coffee export license.The washed process at Bugoye begins by placing the harvested cherries into large fermentation tanks filled with water. Anything that floats to the surface is then removed—damaged cherries, underripe ones, and all foreign objects like leaves or sticks. Next, the coffee is passed through a depulper and moves to further water tanks, where it is "washed" and ferments for 24 hours. Finally, the beans in parchment are dried, hulled, and packed into GrainPro bags.ROASTER'S OPINIONUganda is another African country where coffee production methods are changing dynamically. This momentum also greatly affects the quality of the beans sourced from there. For years, coffees from Uganda were primarily associated with low-quality Robusta. While high-quality microlots did appear, they were rare exceptions.The current situation in the green coffee market and the work of importers and exporters have ensured that the quality of Ugandan coffee improves year after year, with more high-quality coffee entering the market. We observe an improvement in bean quality annually, even as a result of minor adjustments to production processes.This washed lot from the Bugoye station is particularly interesting because it is very complex and somewhat unusual for washed beans from Uganda. The coffee has a light, tea-like body, reminiscent of those well-known from Ethiopia. The acidity is medium, citric, and delicately sparkling. The whole profile is complemented by a caramel-peach sweetness that is noticeable in the long aftertaste. This is the case for espresso, but after adding milk, the coffee changes dramatically. Although it remains light and tea-like, such as washed Ethiopias, the caramel-peach sweetness begins to stand out, creating a delicious, sweet milk coffee.RECIPEUse 18 grams of beans to brew 40 grams of espresso. Grind the coffee finely to aim for an extraction time of approximately 25 seconds.
