About This Coffee

This coffee is a Geisha variety from Finca Palmilera in Costa Rica. The trees were sourced directly from Panama. The coffee is processed using the natural method, where the beans are dried within the cherry. The farm benefits from a unique microclimate with warm mornings and cool afternoons, which extends drying times and enhances flavor intensity. The cup profile is floral and sweet, featuring distinct notes of strawberry and jasmine. This light roast is recommended for pour-over brewing methods.

Bird and Bear Coffee

Bird and Bear Coffee was founded in 2020 by Dan Streetman and his wife Ella in San Francisco's Cole Valley, named after the nicknames of their twin daughters. Dan brings nearly 20 years of specialty coffee experience from stints at Cuvee Coffee in Austin, Irving Farm in New York, and Sightglass, and holds credentials through both the SCA and CQI. The roastery produces around 300 pounds per week at Pulley Collective in Oakland, a private label co op facility, with each coffee roasted fresh when ordered using parameters tailored to unlock its specific flavour potential. Dan has developed direct relationships with growers through origin trips, prioritising environmental wellbeing, equitable working conditions, and sustainable farming practices.
