This coffee is sourced from the Nyabubare washing station in the Bushenyi district of Western Uganda, at an altitude of 1,100 to 1,900 meters. It is a blend of SL14 and SL28 varieties. The coffee undergoes a unique yeast-inoculated process, followed by a fully washed method. This light roast offers a distinct flavor profile featuring notes of strawberry, marzipan, and honey.
Owen Miller founded East Alstead Roasting Co. in April 2020 from his family home in the Monadnock region of New Hampshire, turning to coffee during the early months of the pandemic. Miller had previously worked with L.A. Burdick Chocolate supporting cacao growers in Grenada and trained at Four Barrel Coffee in San Francisco. The micro roastery specializes in light roast single origin coffees, roasted to bring out sweetness and balanced acidity. Packaging features wood engravings of the New Hampshire landscape created by Miller's father, a detail that earned recognition at the 2024 Specialty Coffee Expo in Chicago.
