Giomar

About This Coffee

Giomar is a 100% Robusta coffee of the Napo Payamino variety, sourced from the Sumaco Biosphere Reserve in the Orellana region of Ecuador. Produced by the WITOCA cooperative using traditional Chakra agroforestry methods, this coffee undergoes a 120-hour fermentation in sealed barrels followed by drying in the cherry. The roast profile is designed to be short to preserve freshness and texture. It offers a creamy mouthfeel with distinct flavor notes of nougat, red berries, and caramel, balanced by a delicate acidity and a clean nutty finish.

Kaffeemacher

Kaffeemacher was founded in Basel in 2009 by Benjamin Hohlmann, growing out of his work managing Unternehmen Mitte, one of Switzerland's largest coffee houses. The operation began roasting commercially in 2017 after years of developing a clear roasting philosophy, and today encompasses a roastery in the Gundeli district, a Coffee Academy with over 8,000 course participants, award winning cafes, and a mobile coffee bar. Benjamin holds SCA trainer certification and lectures on coffee at ZHAW Wädenswil. The team co owns Finca Santa Rita, a coffee farm in northern Nicaragua, and sources from partner farms in ten countries through long term relationships. Kaffeemacher swept four of the top five places at the 2024 Swiss Roasting Championships, with all roasters on the team having learned their craft in house. Transparency runs deep: the company publishes a Common Good Balance Sheet and is a signatory to The Pledge for transparent green coffee buying.
