Brewing methods that work best for this filter coffee.
We recommend drinking this Colombian filter coffee as V60 pour-over or batch brew for a cleaner cup with a lighter mouthfeel which lets the coffee flavours and acidity shine. If you are after a slightly bigger mouthfeel, try AeroPress (try a lighter brewing style recipe) or plunger brewing. This filter coffee is best enjoyed without milk.
Check out our current menu of filter coffees.
If you like brewing for espresso or stovetop, try our medium roast level of this delicious coffee.

Women Growers Program - ARGCAFE
This super tasty Colombian coffee has been produced by women’s coffee growers’ of the ARGCAFEE ‘Association de Transformadores y Comercializadores de Cafe Especiales de Argelia Cauca’ located in Agelia, Colombia's Cauca region.
Seventeen smallholder farmers joined forces and founded the association in 2014 to better access markets for their coffees. ARGCAFEE now has 230 members, amongst them many women.
ARGCAFEE is part of an international women's Coffee Producer project by our partner Café Imports that attempts to recognise and promote the work women do growing and producing coffee worldwide. The program aims to address the widespread wage inequity that women experience by adding a gender-equity premium on top of a base price. This premium is paid directly to the growers.
Our social projects
We create opportunities.
We know, that together we are creating better opportunities for women and their families. That’s why we source 40% of our coffees directly from women's coffee growers. And we reinvest funds in social projects that create a profound change in our coffee growing communities. and fund projects that advance women.
