Five Elephant Coffee Roastery

About This Coffee

This coffee is a Pacamara variety grown by Rafael Aya Martínez at 1750 meters in Timaná, Huila, Colombia. Cultivated on steep, volcanic-influenced slopes, the coffee is processed as a natural, with cherries dried intact under controlled airflow. The Pacamara variety is known for its large seed size and open cellular structure, resulting in a cup with layered fruit structure, broad aromatics, and an extended tactile presence while maintaining clarity.

Five Elephant Coffee Roastery

Kris and Sophie Schackman founded Five Elephant in December 2010, opening their original cafe at Reichenberger Strasse 101 in Berlin Kreuzberg while establishing a separate roasting facility on Glogauer Strasse. Head roaster Wojtek Białczak, who placed fifth at the 2019 World Barista Championship in Boston representing Germany, oversees quality on a Diedrich roaster, ensuring every batch meets exacting standards. The roastery offers espresso, filter, and omni roast profiles, with their Meridian Collection showcasing diverse terroirs and varietals from Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kenya, and the Mogiana region of São Paulo, Brazil. Every coffee is cupped after roasting for quality control and flavor profiling, a discipline that reflects their commitment to consistency across four Berlin cafe locations. Direct trade relationships built through origin travel underpin their sourcing, and wholesale distribution extends their reach to partners around the world.
