What customers say

I have never seen the extraction layer the way this one did as it poured into my espresso glass. Beautiful crema on top, a velvety mouthfeel, and a full-bodied flavor with a very smooth finish.

I've always avoided dark roasts because of the bitterness, but I'm shocked at how air roasting keeps it rich AND smooth!

Our story

Started in Cameroon. Roasted in hot air.

Our founder, Jacques Shalo, grew up on his family's coffee farm in Mabonji, Cameroon. Today we air roast in small batches in our cafes. The beans float in hot air instead of sitting against a hot drum, so the cup comes out clean, never bitter.
