Curated coffees sourced for clarity, sweetness, and expressive flavor - from Nordic, European, and international roasters.

At 2,000–2,300 masl in Gedeb, Danche Washing Station works with around 800 smallholder farmers cultivating coffee on small plots across the highlands of Gedeo. Acquired by SNAP Specialty Coffee in 2019, the station is known for its precise processing and clean washed coffees. This lot is composed mainly of Dega, Kurume, and Wolisho alongside other local Ethiopian landraces, reflecting the diversity of varieties grown throughout the region.
After harvesting, the cherries rest in the shade for 45–60 hours before being washed to remove the mucilage. The parchment is then spread on raised beds and dried for 7–10 days, with careful control of sun exposure throughout the day.
Expect a clean and floral cup with notes of juicy tangerine, sweet nectarine, fragrant jasmine and delicate earl grey.

The coffee is processed at Gedeb Chelbesa Station under the management of Atara Wako, whose focus on quality helps preserve the clean, expressive character of the high-altitude coffees produced in the area.
The cherries are carefully sorted and processed using a traditional washed method before being dried on raised beds.

This coffee comes from smallholder farms around Inoi in Kerugoya, where SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11, and Batian are cultivated at around 1,800 masl. The high-altitude growing conditions and careful processing bring out the clarity, vibrant acidity, and intense fruit character associated with high-quality Kenyan coffees.
The ripe cherries are carefully sorted, pulped, fermented, and washed before being dried on raised beds. The clean processing allows the fruit and acidity to remain sharply defined.
Expect a vibrant and layered cup with notes of blackcurrant, stone fruits, hibiscus and grape.

Enrique López has made Finca Chelín in Oaxaca one of Mexico’s most exciting farms through a thoughtful approach to variety and processing. This Gesha is grown at 1.700 m.a.s.l. and reflects his preference for small, deliberate adjustments that add depth without overwhelming the character of the coffee. The result is an expressive yet composed cup, with layered florals and juicy sweetness.
Ripe cherries are rested and briefly dried before being soaked overnight in water, then depulped and thoroughly washed. The parchment is dried slowly under a combination of direct sun and shade nets, producing a remarkably clean profile that sits between natural and washed processing.
Expect a delicate and floral cup with notes of orange blossom, lemon, and green grape.
