Exciting news! New coffees from Stumptown Coffee Roasters! A few old favorites are back again this year, and some are completely new to Stumptown and the marketplace.

First, from Central America in the Terrazu region of Costa Rica, is a bright and caramely cup from a micro coffee producer named Marvin Robles. Marvin has been growing coffee for years and has been sending his coffee to a local cooperative where it was blended with the hundreds of other coffee growers, getting lost among the mounds and mounds of beans, with varying levels of quality. Now, Marvin is milling his own coffee cherries, hand picking them, manually depulping them, fermenting and washing them, and finally drying them on raised beds. The quality of his beans surpasses those which were a part of the jumble at the local cooperatives. All of his hard work shines through in the cup: lively and bright up front, then rich with caramel and toffee notes. Costa Rica Marvin Robles $ 18.49/12 oz. bag

Next, from Ethiopia, is a new coffee to Stumptown, even though this region has been producing coffee for generations. Ethiopia Duromina is a cooperative in a region of southern Sudan which is considered the birthplace of Arabica coffee. This cooperative has just started wet processing the cherries harvested by farmers who are members, and then dried in the sun for 7-10 days, bagged and ready for the marketplace. This cup shows rich and buttery with floral notes and raspberry. Ethiopia Duromina $13.99/12 oz. bag
