We have recently adjusted our grind options. With that in mind, we wanted to offer this primer so that you can choose the best grind-style for your preferred brewing method.

Whole Bean-- While we are happy to grind your beans, your coffee will stay fresher longer if you grind it as you go. There are many great home grinder options out there and many are surprisingly inexpensive.

Drip-- This is a medium grind that is the most versatile. Brewing methods using drip include home coffee drip machines, pour-overs (like Hario), Chemex, and AeroPress.

Espresso-- This grind is generally used for espresso makers. This includes home machines and stove-tip espresso pots. The grind is the most fine and is optimized to work with a high pressure extraction system.

Coarse-- Coarse is for percolators, french press, cold brewing, and sometimes AeroPress. Coarse is the biggest/loosest grind and enables water to move more freely steeping coffee for extraction.

All of the above, while generally true in the industry, also should be adjusted for preference. Feel free to experiment and please contact us if you have questions and we will be happy to work with you.

Cultivated by small-scale farmers of the Bolaven Plateau Coffee Producers Cooperative in a tropical region intersected by countless rivers with dramatic waterfalls near the junction of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand. Rich, almost textured on the palate, this coffee is especially big bodied. Very sweet, with soft intermingling notes of dark chocolate, cream and nougat.

Available in a variety of grind options

Love it

Smooth and flavorful TomM

Wonderful

Clean, bold coffee that tastes great from my Kalita Wave or French Press. Sweet and very satisfying to drink. Wanted to try something different from my normal light roast and this was great! Very glad I tried it, will be ordering more. MattR

Unique Coffee

I normally prefer a dark roast. Jump Start is my preferred first cup of the day. That said, I ordered this to try a coffee from Laos. This one surprised me! It's very smooth. I like the tones of chocolate and vanilla. It makes a great second cup for me after I've had my favorite dark roast. I'm thinking it might make a good iced coffee. If you're curious, give it a try!
