Story

Triangle Accent

This fully washed Ethiopia gains its lively flavor profile in part from extended fermentation, delivering notes of grapefruit, cantaloupe, and honeysuckle.  

Coffees from Gedeb, in the southeast corner of the Gedeo Zone, have historically been aggregated with coffees from Yirgacheffe. However, coffees from Gedeb have a flavor profile utterly unique to their specific terroir. Banko Taratu is the name of the town where this outstanding coffee is harvested and processed from over 300 family-owned farms. Most of these farms are small plots of land adjacent to family homes, and the coffee plants are cultivated using organic fertilizers.

Story:

Based in Bellingham, Washington, Camber was started in 2015 by three Certified Q-graders who were (and still are) passionate about sourcing and roasting coffees with exceptional sweetness, complexity and balance. Despite receiving some nice recognition out of the gate, they've remained very aware that they're only as good as their last batch, which is why they cup every single roast. In July of 2017, they opened their flagship cafe, where they serve fresh, creative food and beverages.
