Our flagship blend does double duty for both brewed coffee and espresso applications. Pronounced fruit, chocolate, and caramel notes from three separate origins make for a coffee that's incredibly intricate, yet roasted to be beautifully balanced. You can dig in and analyze it, or just turn your brain off and enjoy it. In milk based drinks The Answer melts into pure caramel and butterscotch, with hints of fruit peeking around the corner. We've been working on this one for a while and are incredibly proud of what we've created together.

Cooked fruit, rich chocolate, and complex sugars give the Friend Zone decaf an absolutely delicious profile. Opening in the first sip with sweet strawberry jam, rolling into the nutty earthiness of cocoa nib, before settling into the developed sweetness and syrupy mouthfeel of molasses. The Friend Zone is a coffee perfect for anyone, whether you’re looking for a caffeine break or not. 

Decaf never tasted so good. 100% water processed with no chemicals, this single origin Ethiopia decaf works great for brewed coffee and espresso duties. Balanced low-toned flavors with just a sprinkle of fruitiness to tie the whole experience together. Aside from being delicious by itself, Friend Zone takes cream and sugar like a champ, which accentuates it's molasses-y characteristics.

Fazenda Rainha is located in Brazil’s Vale da Grama, an ancient volcanic valley that spans the borderlands of Mogiana and Minas Gerais. We love coffees grown in old volcanic areas, as the (relative) newness of the soil is full of nutrients. The rolling hillsides of the farm produce trees lush with green leaves and plump, juicy, Yellow Bourbon cherries. A repeat finalist in the Brazil Cup of Excellence, Fazenda Rainha took home first place in 2011. Their commitment to excellence is apparent in every cup.

Seasonally sourced from 10 – 30 smallholding producers in the Cauca region of Colombia, the Valle del Cauca represents the spectrum of flavors that can be found in the region. The coffee produced at higher elevations develops complex acidity and delicate florals, while coffee from lower elevations presents rich chocolate, toffee, and a velvety body. Creating the regional blend brings together a balance that represents the full spectrum of what the producers and varied terrain have to offer. 

Experience

Round, sweet, serving up a bit of juice, the Valle del Cauca is the perfect all-purpose single origin coffee for espresso or drip that will speak to most people. It has an upfront citrus acidity reminiscent of limeade, before rolling into cocoa nib and toffee. It is delicious on its own, but also pairs well with a bit of cream. However you take your coffee, you’ll find a way to enjoy this one.

Region: Cauca

Located in the southwestern mountains of Colombia, the Cauca region’s high altitude produces coffees that with heightened sweetness and acidity. The Valle del Cauca is a regional lot, with coffee from up to 30 producers spanning the elevation range of the region. This lot is balanced out with coffee presenting a softer chocolate and toffee profile that is produced in the lower elevation parts of the region. 

Processing Method: Washed

Washed Coffees in Colombia are first de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Some mucilage remains on the seed and a fermentation process is used next to remove the remaining coffee fruit. Carmen ferments her coffee for 14 hours. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed and then laid out to dry on raised beds for 10 days.

We love that naturals are so polarizing in the coffee community. If you are familiar with our brand at all, you know we value them as approachable and exciting for coffee drinkers across the experience spectrum. It’s for this reason that you’ll likely see a naturally processed coffee on our coffee menu year-round. 

That said, we taste tables and tables of naturally processed coffees before approving one for our menu. This lot, from the Guji region in southern Ethiopia, is lighter in body, particularly juicy, and rounds out with a clean finish. It shines in both espresso and pour-over form and is a delight in the cup!

This coffee comes to us from Carlos Guamanga, owner of Finca El Recuerdo located in the district of Huila in Colombia. Carlos began his coffee journey at the age of 15, leaving home for the first time in search of better work opportunities. Over the course of his career he began learning about the crop, studying the roasting and cupping of specialty coffees at the SENA (National Learning Service), and through trial and error he experimented with diverse post-collection processing techniques.

In 2011 he began growing coffee on his own farm’s four hectares of land, and with the support and encouragement of his friends, he submitted his coffee for the Cup of Excellence in Colombia and won 9th place in his first try. Since then he has grown and refined his production - believing in responsible environmentally friendly, sustainable agriculture practices and the practice of meticulous stewardship and production of the natural forest reserve that makes up part of El Recuerdo. Coffee production has become a family business for Guamanga, his daughter at just 17 is already planning to take over the farm and has been learning English to communicate with the markets abroad. We are thrilled to have received his coffee this year, and are so excited to be able to share it with you!

Experience

Vibrantly tropical, and richly sweet the Carlos Guamanga is an exceptional cup of coffee. Bursting in the first sip with bright passion fruit, followed by the delicate sweetness of Watermelon creates an exciting tangy complexity. Each sip begins with that high fruitiness before rolling into a creamy Cookie Butter finish, locking in that sweetness and prepping you for another taste. This coffee is perfect for anyone familiar with lighter coffees who are looking for a little bit of adventure.

Region: Huila

Located in the mountainous southwest of Colombia, the Huila Department is known for the quantity and quality of coffee it produces. Its high elevation and microclimates make the region ideal for growing amazing coffee. Huila’s proximity to the equator allows that quality to be produced year-round, leading to a high quantity of Cup of Excellence coffees that come out of the region each year. Coffee from Huila typically presents a complex acidity, heightened florality, and an underlying caramel sweetness.

Processing Method: Washed

This washed coffee from Carlos Guamanga begins its process the minute it comes off the tree. Picked in the morning, depulped in the afternoon and immediately begins its  72-hour waterless fermentation. The coffee is then washed twice in tanks before being laid out to dry for 8-20 days. Once fully dry the coffee goes back into bags to prevent any outside contamination. His meticulous process helps develop that clean cup and distinctive sweetness we expect from Colombian coffees.

This offering from Costa Rica comes to us from the Cerrro San Luis  Micromill, a family business run by two siblings Alexander and Magali Delgado, and their spouses. Their two farms are adjacent to each other, and their small mill is located just a few miles away at their family home, Grecia, in the West Valley. Costa Rican coffees often come from Micromills like Cerro San Luis who have invested not only in growing their farms but also in building and operating their own processing facilities. These microlots are then separated based on differentiated characteristics like processing method, variety etc. In the interest of improving their quality and remaining competitive the Delgado’s have focused on growing different varieties and experiment with a variety of different processes. This lot from the Delgados is an SL-28, the variety commonly produced in Kenya, which brings a dynamic quality to this delicious coffee. 

Experience

Tarte stone fruit, spiced sweetness, and complex sugars make the Magali Delgado an absolutely magnificent drinking experience. Ripe juicy Cherry blends with the cinnamon sweetness of Apple Sauce to create a wonderfully bright first sip. As it settles into the palate the coffee rolls into the syrupy mouth feel, and caramelized sweetness of Molasses. The  Magali Delgado is an excellent coffee for anyone looking to experiment with honey-processed coffees.

Region: West Valley

Cerro San Luis Micromill is located in the remote West Valley of Costa Rica, which is known for its unique micro-climates, where the specific soil, geography and weather patterns provide the perfect coffee growing environment. This area is complex in both microclimates and varieties cultivated, making it no wonder why many of the Cup of  Excellence winners have come from the West Valley. The high elevations and cooler temperatures result in higher sugar production in the cherries, making coffees from the area brighter and sweeter. 

Processing Method: Yellow Honey

Yellow Honey processed coffees are first picked ripe and sorted before being delivered to the mill to be depulped. As is common in Costa Rica the type of honey is decided by how much mucilage is left after depulping. For a Yellow Honey process very little mucilage remains on the seed when it is placed onto raised beds to dry for a few days. The seeds are then transferred to a covered patio where they are turned regularly until the drying process is complete. At the end of this process you are left with bright yellow coated green coffee with bright sweet, buttery, floral notes, like that of actual honey.

In 2015 Cat & Cloud owners Chris, Jared, and Charles visited their friend Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora at his famed Bella Vista coffee mill where Las Sonajas is processed, and fell in love with its deep yet approachable profile. Since then, we have kicked off each year with this delicious coffee. We created the name to represent all the lots we received from the Bella Vista Mill, it became our way of supporting multiple producers in Antigua when we were first getting started. Las Sonajas is a collaboration of 16 separate producers who grow coffee over 1,700 meters up on the side of the Agua Volcano just outside of Antigua in the Hunapu subregion. It is a coffee with depth, complexity, as well as approachability for most coffee drinkers. 

Experience

Delicate stone fruit, bright cooked citrus, and buttery sweetness make the Las Sonajas another winning cup this year. The first sip is like that first bite of a ripe Apricot. The sweetness of that juicy summer fruit is quickly cut by the combination of bright creamy tang of Key Lime Pie, before layering in the sweet caramelized finish of Toffee. The Las Sonajas is an excellent coffee for someone looking for an easily drinkable coffee with some slight complexity.

Deep Dive

The Hunapú producer group is a collection of producers who are known to grow some of the best coffee in Antigua. The name of the producer group, Hunapú, is the local indigenous name for the nearby volcano, Volcán de Agua. The producers themselves all reside on the lower to mid altitudes of the actual volcano. There are many coffee producers in this area with small plots of land who bring their fresh crop to Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora at the renowned Bella Vista coffee mill for processing and export.

Region: Antigua

Antigua sits in the shadow of three volcanoes, including the very active Fuego Volcano. When Chris, Jared, and Charles visited together a few years back, Fuego was spewing plumes of ash and the lava was flowing. It’s that same volcanic ash that contributes to the incredible minerality of the soil, and in turn, the beautiful chocolate and citric characteristics of the coffee.

Processing Method: Washed

Washed coffees in Guatemala are first de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Mucilage remains on the seed and a fermentation process is used next to remove the mucilage. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed and then laid out to dry on cement patios.

This coffee comes to us from the Adame Gorbota Cooperative in Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia. Comprised of nearly 1,400 smallholding producers, Adame Gorbota is often credited as being one of the best-performing cooperatives in the greater Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Co-op Union.  Coffees from Ethiopia are typically grown on very small plots of land by farmers who also grow other crops. These smallholding producers will then deliver their cherry to a washing station where they are blended into a day lot, allowing even the smallest lot to be sold in the wider market. 

Experience

Juicy citrus, delicate sweetness, and a fragrant finish make the Adame Gorbota a lovely example of everything we love about coffees from Yirgacheffe. This coffee opens with a punch of bright Raspberry Lemonade, with the soothing sweetness of juicy blueberries. As that first sip finishes you are left with delicate floral notes that carry you into the next. The Adame Gorbota is an excellent coffee for anyone who loves lighter coffees and wants a clean sweet cup.

Region: Yirgacheffe

The Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia lies in the southern portion of the country, where coffee is in its natural habitat given the healthy soil, high elevations, and tropical climate. Sitting in the higher altitudes of the mountain, ranging between 1600 - 2400 m.a.s.l., the coffee grows wildly and is often intermingled with other dense vegetation on farmers’ properties. Coffees from this region present a bright and delicate profile of citrus and florals with delicate tea-like finishes.

Processing Method: Washed

This washed coffee from Yirgacheffe is first de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Some mucilage remains on the seed and a 15 - 20 hour fermentation process is used next to remove that remaining fruit layer. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed and then laid out to dry on raised beds for 10-20 days. You can expect washed process coffees to be clean and bright, with a sparkling quality to them.
