If you loved our Cabra Noir Wush Wush, donât miss this!!!
Ombligon gets its name from ombligo, or âbelly buttonâ in Spanish. It refers to the cherryâs unique size and shape evokingâyou guessed itâa belly button.
Itâs a rare landrace variety from Ethiopia with no record of migration and cultivated primarily in Huila, Colombia. Ombligon is high-yield and resistant to leaf rust, making it a valuable asset to industry longevity in an increasingly unpredictable climate.
In the cup, Ombligon is recognized by its silky mouthfeel and long, sweet finish. Owing to the large size of its fruit, harvesting favors dark and overripe cherries. This Ombligon is a long way from Huila: it was grown an 8-hour drive away in Santuario, Risaralda, at Esmeralda Negra.
This coffee was harvested, open-air fermented for 24 hours and mixed with mosto. Mosto is the Spanish word for must, a winemaking term for the mixture of a crushed fruit pulp and its juices. With the mosto, the Ombligon was sealed in a tank for a 48-hour anaerobic fermentation.
After ferment, the coffee was stabilized with a thermal shock: a process in which the coffee is soaked in hot water to soften cell permeability, then âquenchedâ in cold water to fixate volatile compounds from fermentation. Itâs kind of like using a toner after washing your face.
Cabra Noir is a specialty coffee house based out of Esmeralda Negra. Their focus is attuned to rare varieties and visionary fermentation practices, customizing each coffee from its seedling to the export vehicle. Ultimately, Cabra Noir is a project of curation.
With tasting notes of raspberry jam, blackcurrant, and guava candy. Try it on pour over first!

Another ridiculously hot week. Stay hydrated and caffeinated with our summer special, the Coconut Paradise đ„„
Itâs hard to understate how delicious this drink is: roasted FOCO coconut juice, with chunks of coconut pulp, and our sweet espresso. Itâs perfect for morning commute heat stroke, sleepy afternoon pick-me-ups, and locking in the next morning after a long night out. Get it while itâs hot!

Itâs 2004 and Hoobastank is on the radio. In Central America, a mountainous dairy cattle and coffee farm wins first place at the Best of Panama auction with an unknown cultivar called Gesha. It sells for a record-shattering $21 per pound and changes specialty coffee forever. The farm is called Hacienda La Esmeralda.
In 2025, the winning coffee at Best of Panamaâonce again, a Gesha from Hacienda La Esmeraldaâauctioned for over $13,700 per pound with an historic 98.00 cup score.
The cultivarâs market debut in 2004 demonstrated the dollar value of farming for quality instead of quantity. 22 years later, specialty coffee is a growing industry full of passion and exploration, but a washed Gesha from the volcanic soils of Hacienda La Esmeralda is as industry-defining as if it were still 2004 and Hoobastank was still on the radio.
Gesha dominates coffee competitions and retail shelves with the promise (and the price tag) of excellence. Its story is archetypal of the larger ideals of specialty coffee: it shows the real-life rewards of learning about taste, investing in quality and discovery, and identifying what makes a farm and its soil, or a plant and its steward, special.
Weâre all here to share our unique flavors with the world. Coffee is no exception. Every region, every process, every variety, every roast, every brew, and every sip offers a new and singular experience. This one is a crisp washed Gesha from the farm that discovered Gesha.
With tasting notes of nectarine, peach, jasmine, and Oolong tea. Only available in a 15g capsule.

Yes, we have a natural Chiroso for the summer đ±
Chiroso is a niche coffee variety common to Urrao in the southwest of Antioquia, Colombia. Its name is derived from local Colombian slang to describe something âa little elongated.â
In Urrao, Chiroso is cultivated widely for its high yields similar to Caturraâso similar, in fact, that the industry categorized Chiroso as a descendant of Caturra until genetic testing confirmed a totally different story.
The Chiroso genome suggests it was directly imported from the wild forests of Ethiopia, a native landrace with no relation to any established South American cultivars. How it arrived in Colombia remains lost to history.
Yenser UrĂĄn, who cultivates El Pincel to grow only Chiroso, offers 25 years of experience and passion in family farming to specialty coffee. Chiroso is a widespread staple of the area with a uniquely sweet and full-bodied profile.
In this coffee, Yenser showcases the natural fruit on the cherry with a 72 hour anaerobic fermentation before natural drying. It has fruit-forward cupping notes of mango, pineapple, and raspberry đ„
