We roast every week from Monday through Wednesday. While many roasters emphasize ultra-fresh coffee, our beans truly shine after a few days of resting. The sweet spot? Enjoying our coffee within 4 weeks of roasting.

Look for the week number on the bottom of the bag taken out of 52 weeks in the year.

Curious about the roast date? Just ask us. We're always happy to help you experience our coffee at its best.

Origin Story

Our friends at Ally Coffee Importers worked to find a delicious producer that met our earth friendly parameters and we’re excited to introduce this beautiful coffee from Honduras that we plan to work with for years to come. 

The COMICOVEL cooperative—Cooperativa Mixta Cosecha Verde Limitada—in San Juan Intibucá is composed of smallholder producers who farm coffee with a focus on overall environmental sustainability. The co-op is the product of Catholic Relief Services’ Blue Harvest Project, which improves agroforestry management on farms throughout Central America and is headed by Geovanny Martinez and with Carlos Guevara acting as a consultant. To date, Blue Harvest has helped 1400 producers transform their farms into ecosystems that protect the forest and its freshwater sources.

COMICOVEL came into being specifically to bring together the Blue Harvest Project farmers who invested time and energy into improving their farms. The co-op was formed in 2016 and exported its first coffee in 2018. COMICOVEL exports with several certifications, including organic, which will earn producers premiums to continue farming without chemicals and ecosystem preservation that protects freshwater sources.

Located in the Opalaca mountain range of Honduras, COMICOVEL produces a disease resistant variety called Lempira. Grown at about 1,500 meters above sea level before being processed using the washed method.
