We get asked by friends and family where to buy coffee a lot. It’s a tough question! It’s easy to lose track of just how many incredible, fresh, vibrant coffees are out there. Every week, we ask our advertising roasting partners for coffee recommendations they’re most excited about. Here’s this week’s collection of some of the most interesting whole bean coffee offerings available from talented roasters across the globe.
Our coffee newsletter subscribers get this list each week, a few days before anyone else—check it out over at Substack.

Mr. Espresso West Java is quickly making its mark in the coffee world. Only about 15 years ago, the Indonesian government launched an initiative to lease private land to local farmers for coffee farming, aiming to protect the area’s lush forests from logging. The forward-thinking programming has transformed the region into a hub for exceptional coffee production. Part of Mr. Espresso’s limited-edition Collezione di Caffè, this washed micro-lot comes from West Java’s Cipaganti Village. Collected directly from small farmers, coffee varietals include Catimor, Tim Tim, Typica, and Gayo II — all grown at high altitudes of around 5,700 feet. For this fully washed coffee, ripe cherries are pulped, dry-fermented for sixteen hours, and then thoroughly washed. The coffee is then placed in a solar dryer, until the optimum moisture content is reached.While washed coffee processing is traditional to the region, it had fallen out of favor as producers transitioned to meet a demand for wet-hulled coffees made popular in neighboring Sumatra. The Mr. Espresso sourcing team was exceptionally impressed by this coffee’s vibrancy, showcased by the region’s traditional processing method. Java Gunung Tikukur offers a complex cup, with flavors such as peach, toasted almond, and basil. |

Tesfaye Bekele has been a champion of sustainable agroforestry in Guji, growing coffee under native forest spared from wildfires. For years we’ve heard rumors of a Suke Quto “secret process,” seemingly an adaptation of natural processing.

Madcap Coffee Nelson Moreno inherited his first piece of land, 3 acres at about 1600 meters, from his father Orlando when he was only 16. In the Santa Barbara region, the surname Moreno and quality go hand-in-hand. Generations of Morenos’ work together harvesting each other’s coffee, as well as processing all of their lots together. Their collective effort is what sets the Moreno’s level of quality apart from the rest, and they have the Cup of Excellence awards to prove it. Specialty coffee enthusiasts recognize Santa Barbara, Honduras, as one of the most unique coffee micro-terroirs in all of Central America. Coffees from this region are known for being pleasantly sweet and easy sipping, and have a complexity all their own. Nelson Moreno’s coffee is a brilliant example of how terroir, generations of experience, and fine tuning can results in a stand out crop of coffee.This Pacas variety is processed anaerobically, or without oxygen. The coffee is depulped and then sealed in barrels for 80 hours, left in open-air fermentation tanks for 12 hours before being washed, and finally dried for 12-13 days on raised beds. This innovative processing technique results in a vibrant and expressive cup, with notes of honeydew, lychee, and hibiscus. |
