Butter, raisins, and loquat
Shipments in 48-72 hours. Shipments leave at 2:00 p.m. (Friday). Some days they will arrive even earlier
Notes: Butter, raisins, and loquats. A coffee with a silky body, deep sweetness, and balanced acidity that provides juiciness without losing cleanliness. Its profile combines the ripe fruit characteristic of the natural process with a creamy texture and a long, elegant finish.
This coffee has been developed with an Omniroast profile, designed to offer excellent results in espresso, moka pot, and filter methods. In espresso, it stands out for its body and sweetness, while in filter, it reveals the full complexity of its fruity notes and creamy texture.
Liza Washing Station, managed by Jean Paul, works with small coffee farmers in the Kivu belt to produce high-quality coffees with careful traceability. The combination of high altitude, volcanic soils, and meticulous processing results in expressive, clean, and aromatically rich coffees.
The Kivu belt is one of Rwanda's most prestigious coffee-growing regions. Its plantations grow among volcanic mountains and next to Lake Kivu, a privileged environment that provides moderate temperatures, abundant rainfall, and slow cherry maturation. These conditions favor coffees with great sweetness, balanced acidity, and extraordinary complexity in the cup.
Red Bourbon is Rwanda's most iconic varietal and one of the reasons for the country's excellent reputation in the specialty coffee world. It is characterized by its great sweetness, balance, and elegance. In this lot, it is combined with RAB C15, a selection developed to improve the productivity and resistance of the plants while maintaining a high-quality sensory profile.
Ripe cherries are carefully selected and dried whole on raised African beds for several weeks. This process allows the bean to absorb some of the sugars and aromatic compounds from the pulp, developing a more intense profile with greater sweetness, body, and very expressive ripe fruit, while always maintaining a clean and balanced cup.
Siempre había comprado café del supermercado y quería probar eso del café de especialidad. La diferencia se nota muchísimo. Lo que más me ha gustado del pack es poder probar varios cafés y descubrir cuál encaja más conmigo.
No tengo una cafetera profesional ni entiendo demasiado de café. Lo preparo en mi cafetera italiana de toda la vida y está espectacular. Cada bolsa tiene un sabor diferente y se nota muchísimo comparado con el café que tomaba antes.
Llevo tiempo tomando café de especialidad y me ha sorprendido bastante el pack. Hay perfiles diferentes y eso hace que sea divertido ir cambiando de café. El Brasil Santa Cecilia me ha encantado especialmente.
Pensaba que lo del café de especialidad era un poco marketing, pero después de probar estos cafés entiendo perfectamente por qué la gente habla tanto de ello. Tiene mucho más aroma y encuentras sabores que nunca había notado en un café.
Lo mejor es poder comparar unos con otros. Preparándolos en V60 se aprecian muchísimo las diferencias entre cada origen y perfil. Una selección muy buena tanto para descubrir cafés nuevos como para regalar.
Lo compré porque quería dejar las cápsulas y probar algo mejor. No tenía ni idea de qué café elegir, así que este pack me pareció la forma más fácil de empezar. Después de probarlos tengo claro que no vuelvo al café de antes.
Una forma sencilla de empezar a descubrir todo lo que puede ofrecer un buen café.
Every day from Monday to Friday we prepare orders for our transport agency to pick them up at 2pm. If we have all the coffees you have ordered and they are roasted, we will send them that same day. Otherwise we will do everything possible to get it out the next day. Our transport agency assures us of deliveries in 24-48 hours.
Example 1:
If you place the order on Sunday afternoon. Normally, if we have roasted all the coffees that you have ordered from us, on Monday morning we will prepare all the orders for the weekend and that Monday at 2:00 p.m. your order will already be on its way, in the hands of our agency. On many occasions it will be delivered the next day, Tuesday before 7pm, but on other occasions you will have to wait until Wednesday to receive your order. For your peace of mind, you will normally receive an email with which you can track it.
Example 2) worst case
If you place an order on Friday at noon, the normal thing is that we will not have time to prepare it and that the agency will not be able to pick it up until Monday at 2 p.m., and it may be that, as in example 1) your order will not arrive until Tuesday or Wednesday before 7 p.m.
Example 3) Best case
If you place your order early on a Tuesday, it is likely (if we have all your coffees roasted) that your order will leave on Tuesday at 2:00 p.m. and if the agency delivers it to you in less than 24 hours, you will have your coffee on Wednesday before 7:00 p.m.
Our transport agency, once it has received and processed the package, will send you an email with the tracking number so that you can manage any changes directly with them.
We want you to order coffee from us periodically and to have direct contact with you. For this reason we have created our coffee lovers club, the Artisan Coffee Club , and for the members of this club we will assume the Shipping Costs , of course it is an effort on our part. But we are sure that in this way we will become your trusted coffee supplier and that you will be the first to receive our communications with enthusiasm.
A specialty coffee is characterized by using high-quality beans that are grown in optimal conditions and harvested and processed with care.
This type of coffee is scored by certified cuppers and scores above 80 on the 100-point scale of the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA).
Although we at Artisan Coffee purchase the vast majority of our coffees above 85 SCA points.

This information has little to do with what you usually find in supermarkets, and the only information you will have is whether it is natural roasted, blended or roasted (we talk about this below in another question).
When we talk about processes there are basically 3 types:
The degree of roast refers to how much a coffee bean has been roasted. Grades range from light roast, which retains many of the bean's natural flavors, to dark roast, which has a more roasted flavor and less of the bean's original flavors. In specialty coffee, the roast is carefully selected to highlight the unique flavors and characteristics of each bean.
In general, we apply a medium roast to our coffees, except in certain cases when we will apply a medium-low roast so as not to lose those delicate notes that tend to disappear with larger roasts.
We roast each coffee in a completely different way, and in our control tastings we define whether that coffee needs a different roast than the one we have done in order to further enhance its flavor notes.
All our coffees are Arabica and are roasted naturally , and in no case do we use roasting.
We only apply heat and do not add any extra ingredients, like roasting does, which adds sugar.
Many specialty coffee producers practice sustainable growing methods that protect the environment. This may include using shade to protect coffee plants and conserve biodiversity, water conservation through efficient irrigation systems, and composting coffee waste. Additionally, many specialty coffee producers receive a fair price for their product, allowing them to invest in sustainable agricultural practices.
In addition, our coffee bags are part of a CO2 compensation project.
