Frequently asked questions

How do I request samples?

You can request samples by reaching out to our team directly or submitting a request through our website. Let us know what you’re looking for (origin, profile, volume, etc.), and we’ll recommend coffees that fit your needs.

We aim to process sample requests quickly so you can evaluate quality and make purchasing decisions with confidence.

Do you offer contracts?

Yes, we offer both spot purchasing and contract options depending on your needs. Contracts are a great way to secure volume, maintain consistency, and plan ahead for key coffees throughout the year.

Our team can work with you to build a contract that aligns with your roasting schedule, volume requirements, and budget.

Where do you ship from?

We primarily ship from warehouses within the United States, allowing for faster delivery and more reliable logistics for our customers.

For larger volume needs or specific sourcing programs, we also offer the ability to ship directly from origin or coordinate delivery straight to your facility. Our team can help determine the best option based on your volume, timeline, and operational needs.

How is quality controlled?

Quality is managed at multiple stages, from origin through arrival in the U.S. We work closely with producers, exporting partners, and storage facilities to ensure proper processing, storage, and preparation before shipment.

Once coffees arrive, we cup and evaluate lots to make sure they meet our standards before they are offered to roasters. This helps maintain consistency and that the coffee performs as expected.
