Five Ways Coffee Roasters
Colombia - San Sebastian - Washed
This high-altitude coffee hails from the mountain sides of Colombia, offering a bright and vibrant cup brimming with the sweetness of raspberries. We recommend this one for espresso if your looking for some sweet, vibrant and also pairs nicely with milk.
San Sebastian coffee is produced by dedicated smallholder members of OCCICAFE (The Association de Productores de Cafe de Alta Calidad del Occidente del Huila), situated in La Plata, Huila. These growers are committed to upholding quality and minimising environmental impact throughout the coffee production process. The smallholders process their coffee, drying it on covered patios before delivering the beans to the OCCICAFE lab, where each lot undergoes classification. Only the coffee that surpasses a minimum score of 85 points and exhibits a moisture reading between 10-11 percent is selected and sent to us!

- Choose the right container: It's important to store your coffee beans in an airtight container. Look for a container made of a material that won't absorb odors, like glass or ceramic. Avoid using plastic containers, as they can impart a plastic-like taste to the coffee.
- Keep the container away from light: Coffee beans are sensitive to light, which can cause them to degrade more quickly. Store your coffee container in a dark place, such as a pantry or cupboard.
- Keep the container away from heat: Heat can also cause coffee beans to degrade. Avoid storing your coffee container near a heat source, such as a stove or oven.
- Store at room temperature: Coffee beans should be stored at room temperature, between 60 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. Avoid storing coffee beans in the refrigerator or freezer, as moisture can cause them to spoil and lose their flavor.
- Use whole beans: It's best to store whole coffee beans rather than ground coffee. Ground coffee has a larger surface area, which makes it more vulnerable to oxidation and degradation.
- Avoid air exposure: Exposure to air can cause coffee beans to oxidize, which can lead to a stale or sour taste
