• Decaf Dream Harder
  As fellow sleepers, we recognize coffee can keep a person up at night. Time spent tossing and turning should be time spent dreaming. To this end, we created Dream Harder Decaf. Balanced and sweet, citrusy and spicy, Dream Harder makes it possible to both enjoy coffee and get the most of your restful hours.
• Half-Caff Mexico Kulaktik (Water Process)
  For the coffee drinker that prefers half the caffeine! We combine our regular-roast Mexico Kulaktik - Organic/Fair Trade with a water-process decaffeinated version of the SAME COFFEE, resulting in a flavorful brew with some (but not all) of its original kick. The water-process decaffeination also preserves the organic integrity of the coffee, which may help you rest even better.
• French Roast
  Fans of dark roasts, listen up! Our version of the classic French Roast - Organic/Fair Trade was created just for you. Dark-roasted coffees from Central America and Indonesia come together in this smoky, full-bodied blend, while flavors of dark chocolate and black licorice reward those who want a little roast in their lives!
• Decaf French Roast
  This dark roasted blend of coffees is for those of you who want the smoky flavor and aroma of French Roast without the caffeine.
• Campesino Blend
  Around the world, millions of small-scale farmers (campesinos in Spanish) dedicate their lives to growing, harvesting, and processing high-quality coffee. In their honor, we've combined organic, single origin coffees produced by Fair Trade Certified cooperatives for a great-tasting blend. It possesses a rich, chocolatey flavor with a medium-to-full body, low acidity, and a hint of spice.
• Sumatra Gayoland
  In the cup, this Sumatra is characterized by its low acidity, medium-to-heavy body, and earthy undertones. It is produced by the GayoOrganic Coffee Farmers Association, a Fair Trade Certified cooperative from the northern tip of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The cooperative members are small-scale farmers dedicated to growing 100% shade grown coffee that is certified organic by Skal.
• Ethiopia Harar
  For years we've sourced the Harar Horse from Mohamed A. Ogsadey, one of the most respected coffee exporters in all of Ethiopia and an annual visitor to Milwaukee until his passing in 2006. Although his presence in the specialty coffee industry is missed, his nephew Rashid has taken over the business and continues to deliver the high quality to which we are accustomed. Milk chocolate and berry-fruit notes are abundant, while mild, sweet acidity and creamy body round out the cup. Unique and very drinkable!
• Dark Sumatra Gayoland
  We've roasted the Sumatra Gayoland - Organic/Fair Trade darker to give some complexity to the coffee's earthy flavor and full body. It's produced by the Gayo Organic Coffee Farmers Association, a Fair Trade Certified cooperative from the northern tip of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Certified organic by the Dutch agency SKAL.
• Kenya AA
  Every Tuesday during the harvest months, some of the best coffees in the world are sold at auction in Nairobi, Kenya. Each year we sift through dozens and dozens of samples to find the really outstanding coffees to bid on and buy. Our favorites always have lush, wine-like acidity that complements smooth, buttery body for an intense yet balanced cup with plenty of interesting flavors.
• Colombia El Castillo
  An Alterra-exclusive coffee, El Castillo is created through an intensive search for the best deliveries of the year from hundreds of coffee producers in the departments of Huila and Cauca in southwestern Colombia - a relationship of which we are very proud to be a part. Each lot is screened and cupped at origin as well as at our lab in Milwaukee, and the best lots are selected and blended to create an intense but balanced coffee with pronounced, sweet acidity and full body. This is GREAT Colombian coffee!
