We get asked by friends and family where to buy coffee a lot. It’s a tough question! It’s easy to lose track of just how many incredible, fresh, vibrant coffees are out there. Every week, we ask our advertising roasting partners for coffee recommendations they’re most excited about. Here’s this week’s collection of some of the most interesting whole bean coffee offerings available from talented roasters across the globe.

This lot represents Equator’s third year purchasing coffee from Liquidambar. Our Head Roaster, Michelle, developed this year’s roast profile. “One of the things that makes the Parainema variety so unique is the botanical notes it presents. This year that came through as a subtle florality and sweet cinnamon pastry quality. The extended maillard phase contributed a depth of sweetness without destroying the tropical fruit acidity.”
Los Patios Solsticio is bright and fruit-forward, with notes of sweet lemonade and peach that hit right away. The green tea quality keeps it grounded though adding a clean, refreshing backbone that stops it from ever feeling too sweet or one dimensional. Juicy and well balanced from start to finish.

Through this program, we use our platform to amplify women leaders in coffee whose work and perspectives help reduce barriers, challenge oppression, and guide the industry toward a more just future.
This offering is bright, tangy, and earthy-sweet. The lovely floral aroma gives way to notes of baked pineapple and cherry, followed by a rich lingering molasses finish.

The Co-op model, common in Kenya, means that Gichathaini is owned by the farmers it serves.
