Good Life Coffee Roasters

A special-lot anaerobically fermented, naturally processed coffee from Bombe in Ethiopia's Bensa district, Sidama Zone — one of the highest-altitude growing areas in Sidama at 1,900-2,400 masl. Light fermentation combined with the balance and sweetness of natural processing gives notes of papaya, bergamot, and dark chocolate. Grown by smallholder farmers cultivating a mix of Ethiopian heirloom varieties, as is typical in the region. Carefully sorted whole cherries are sealed in oxygen-limited fermentation tanks for controlled fermentation, then moved to raised beds to dry evenly under natural sunlight; the lot rests in storage before the dried cherry skin is removed and the coffee prepared for export.

Papaya, bergamot, dark chocolate

Danche washing station, owned by SNAP Coffee, serving ~400 smallholder farmers.

Lychee, Candy-like Sweetness, Gentle Florals

An anaerobically fermented, natural-processed Red Catuai from the Ureña family's La Catarata lot at Café Rivense del Chirripó, grown at around 1,600 masl. Full-bodied and sweet, with the anaerobic fermentation adding distinctly layered character — fruit jam, cacao nibs, and caramel, with a velvety mouthfeel and restrained acidity that pairs well with milk. The family farm was founded in 2005 by Régulo Ureña and Isabel Rojas; their sons Ricardo, Mario, and Esteban now lead day-to-day operations. Cherries are handpicked at full ripeness, dried without water on raised beds and finished in mechanical dryers, with all processing, sorting, and packaging done on-site for full traceability. The farm sits in Costa Rica's Chirripó micro-region, between the Cerro de la Muerte range and Cerro Chirripó, where high altitude, volcanic soil, and cool mountain air build a complex, nuanced cup.
