Story

Fincamigos is Cafexport’s research gem in the Atioquian Andes, with 16 hectares dedicated to the cultivation of new ideas. To some degree, every coffee produced here is an experiment in new farming practices, with a view to increasing quality and long-term sustainability in Colombian coffee production.

With this lot, Caturra was blended with leaf rust-resistant Cenicafe. The result is a seriously high-quality cup that goes some way to address a major issue facing producers across South and Central America.

I think Harley said the farm has some connection to the family of Tommie at Sucafina, but I might have that wrong, I’m working late so can’t really ask at this point. It’s really very good either way.

Coffee FAQ

Does your coffee come as whole bean or ground?

We only sell whole bean coffee. This is to ensure you make the best cup possible and a big part of that is grinding the coffee just before using it.

If you're in need of a grinder, head to our brewing store.

What's the difference between espresso and filter roast?

We profile most of our coffees for both espresso and filter. In basic terms, espresso coffee is often more developed and slightly darker than a filter roast. This varies with each coffee and in general we roast our coffee to what is considered a light/modern profile. Which one is best for you depends on your intended brewing method.

You can search by brew type on our shop.

Is your coffee roasted to order?

We roast multiple times throughout the week and dispatch online orders twice per week (at minimum). Due to the way we roast coffee, we recommend a minimum rest period of 10 days before brewing.
