L I G H T	Ethiopia Yirgacheffe City Roast. This is a washed coffee from Koke, the first region in Ethiopia to use this process. Increasing quality standards mean this year’s crop is one of the cleanest ever to be imported. This translates to a creamy and flavorful coffee that offers a mix of chocolate, citrus and spice tones. Works well with both drip or French press brewing.	1/2 pound 3/4 pound 1 pound
M E D I U M	Zimbabwe AAA Leopard Forest Full City Roast. One of my long-running favorites from a farm that practices sustainable agriculture and imports their own beans. This coffee is excellent for drip brewing and produces a wonderfully balanced cup with a hint of citrus. A real eye opener in the morning.	1/2 pound 3/4 pound 1 pound
M E D I U M	Honduras COSAGUAL Full City Roast. Situated in the mountains of western Honduras, the COSAGUAL Cooperative produces quality fair trade coffee that continues family traditions while integrating modern organic standards.

D A R K	FTO Mexico La Selva French Roast. This is fair trade, organically grown coffee from the La Selva cooperative of farms located in the Lacandon jungle of the Chiapas region. It demonstrates a flavor like unrefined cocoa with a full-bodied brew. French press or drip brewing recommended.	1/2 pound 3/4 pound 1 pound
E S P R E S S O	Brazil Daterra Reserve Espresso Full City + Roast. This sustainable estate coffee is grown on a number of small plots in and around the Cerrado region. Micro-environments yield a surprising diversity of flavors. They are nicely leveraged in this classic espresso blend that highlights chocolate and nut tones in a coffee smooth enough to drink alone, but bold enough to mix with steamed milk.	1/2 pound 3/4 pound 1 pound
D E C A F	Decaf Costa Rica SWP Light Roast. This lively and creamy decaffeinated Costa Rican coffee exhibiting the sweet and cinnamon flavors typical of coffees from this country. You can also look forward to woody and floral undertones.	1/2 pound 3/4 pound 1 pound
