This coffee is sourced from the Kisoro Estate in the Kisoro District of Uganda, a region characterized by volcanic soils and a cool climate near the Virunga Mountains. Produced by Kenneth Barigye and Mountain Harvest, this Arabica coffee is processed using an anaerobic natural method, which enhances fruit intensity, acidity, and body. The flavor profile features notes of Pinot Noir, caramel, and chocolate cranberry, offering a winey and complex experience.
Christian Johnson founded Spyhouse Coffee Roasters in 2000 in Minneapolis, and the company became a farm to cup operation in 2013 when it opened a dedicated roasting facility in the city's Northeast arts district. Spyhouse has earned two Good Food Awards, for its Juan Domingo from Guatemala and Dimtu Tero from Ethiopia, and its staff are active across Specialty Coffee Association events and the Barista Guild Executive Council. The roastery was acquired by FairWave Coffee Collective in 2021, expanding its reach while maintaining the sourcing and roasting standards that built its reputation in the Twin Cities over more than two decades.
