    Choose your grind size

    If you don't have a grinder at home, we'll happily grind your coffee to your specifications. Just select your brewing method above or order whole beans.

    Find the right grind. You can get the most out of your coffee by grinding your beans just before brewing. Take a look at the equipment selection if you are interested in a grinder.

    You can also select a grind level in each product if you want us to grind the beans for you. We use a Mahlkönig EK43 for this.

    About the coffee

    After harvesting the ripe cherries, this naturally processed coffee was dried on patios, complete with the fruit and its skin. This imbues the flavour of the fruit into the beans themselves, which, after being de-pulped, carry a tropical, juicy flavour profile.

    About the farm

    Alberto Guardìa has been growing coffee for over 50 years. His family farm, with the melodious name Hacienda Sonora, is located on the fertile foothills of the famous Poas volcano in Costa Rica's West Valley. It is largely surrounded by virgin forest. The preservation of the rainforest is very important to the Guardìa family, letting their coffees grow symbiotically amongst it. The coffee trees ripen excellently under the protective cover of the shady trees, and they receive enough moisture in the lush vegetation to ripen.

    The entire farm is powered by a Pelton turbine, driven by the thrash of a river on the farm, producing clean energy for all their operations. The Guardìas are one of our longest standing partners, and it brings us great joy to work with and support such an exceptional family that grows unique coffees every year with care for nature.

    Bloody Good Coffee

    - SINCE 2002

    Bloody Good Filter

    Coffee is a fruit which is naturally acidic and contains many sugars. We roast our filter coffees to bring out this acidity and develop the natural sweetness.

    In developing a profile for a filter roast, our roasting team takes a light-handed approach, roasting much more gently than in an espresso roast. Here, the aim is to respect and highlight the natural flavours of the coffee itself, and to let its terroir shine through.
