A Legendary "Bucket List" Coffee: The Elusive Ethiopia Harar
This is your chance to experience a true coffee legend. After years of searching, we are immensely proud to offer what we believe is one of the best Ethiopia Harar lots we have sourced in over 18 years. Wild, exotic, and exceptionally rare, this is a coffee that every serious enthusiast should try at least once.
Famously difficult to source, authentic Ethiopian Harar is a treasure. Its ancient heirloom trees are delicate, and yields are often tiny, meaning entire seasons can pass without a single bag meeting our quality standards. This scarcity makes securing a lot of this calibre a genuine triumph—a testament to the dedicated farmers preserving one of the world's oldest coffee traditions.
Why This Harar is So Special:
-
Tasting Profile: An exotic and wild cup with intense notes of wild blueberry, blackberry jam, rich cacao, and a distinct red wine finish.
-
Processing: Natural (Sun-Dried). The coffee cherries are dried whole, imparting the bean with its iconic fruit-forward flavours and a heavy, syrupy body.
Varietal: 100% Native Heirloom Arabica, grown in their original, ancient environment.
-
Acidity & Body: A complex, winey acidity balanced by a rich, syrupy body.
-
Extreme Rarity: An exceptionally limited micro-lot. This is not just coffee; it's a piece of history.
Brewing This Exotic Treasure
To fully appreciate its unique character, we recommend brewing methods that highlight its vibrant fruit and complexity:
-
Pour-Over (V60, Kalita): Creates a clean cup that showcases the vibrant, winey acidity and distinct berry notes.
-
AeroPress: Produces a rich, concentrated brew bursting with jammy sweetness.
-
Cold Brew: Makes a remarkably smooth, chocolatey, and incredibly fruity concentrate.
Please Note: A Collector's Coffee Due to its extreme rarity and limited availability, this coffee is sold exclusively in 1kg bags. Grab this bucket list experience before it's gone for another season—or another four years.

How we roast your coffee
Twenty years of roasting every weekday, 51 weeks a year. Many batches and a level of experience unmatched in the Australian coffee market. The same person who roasts that very first batch is the same person who roasts every batch today. Another feature rarely matched for brands our size.
Roasting coffee has never been about freaky talent or secrets passed down through generations. Nope, to roast and understand the roasting process, it is all about practice, practice and more practice. There are no shortcuts, innovative tools, or systems to help jump ahead of the competition.
It's how we can produce Australia's best-tasting and most consistent coffee. Match that with superior quality ingredients, the most advanced infrastructure, and mature processes; you have the solution for great-tasting coffee. We roast to target sweetness, acidity, flavour, body and finish to generate the best possible balance across all those competing elements.
Our espresso style is a medium roast suitable for premium cafes that care about quality. Filter-style roasts are lighter to meet the demands of modern alternative brewing methods to retain fruit-forward complexity.
What is most important?
The answer is that they all are. It didn't take a pandemic to learn why speed, freshness, quality and value are all equally important.
Heck no. We worked that out in 2007 as the original pioneer of online premium quality fresh roasted coffees to Australian coffee lovers.
We get it. Running out of coffee is a nightmare scenario nobody wishes to experience. With 16 years and almost 1 million successful parcel deliveries under our belts, we know a thing or two about what it takes to run a high-performance and high-speed coffee supply operation.
To ensure our coffees are crazy fresh, barely hours old when they ship out the door, it requires significant scale and resources working rapidly to roast, pack, label, grind, parcel and ship. It's an eco-system we have continued to build and optimize for 16 years, measuring our performance in minutes, not hours and days, like some of our competitors.
Nobody can guarantee or predict delivery timeframes, but we assure you of our commitment to ship freshly roasted coffees prepared to precise quality standards at a competitive price and always processed with a critical sense of urgency.
