About Comfy Coffee:

A collection of coffee focused on the sweetly cozy side of life. These offerings are a study in accessibility via roast style, without sacrificing quality or sourcing standards. Perfect for anyone just coming to specialty coffee, or the seasoned coffee lover who is looking for a slightly more developed and balanced beautiful all day sipper!

We accomplish this by working closely with some of our go-to producer friends to find lower acidity, past crop, and other offerings that might have trouble finding a home in the current specialty market. We approach these coffees in the same way we do all coffees – roasting them to bring out the best in each bean! We end with a product that is every bit as amazing, but in a different way. Coffee can be anything and everything, and this is another way to explore that idea.

About the producers:

In 1960, a group of coffee producers came together to create the Naranjo Coffee Growers and Multiple Services Cooperative, LLC in order to pool their efforts for coffee processing. They purchased their own mill and implemented measures to improve coffee quality and production in addition to educating the members about sustainable farming practices and providing agricultural technical assistance. La Rosa comes from four farms located in the Naranjo district. Naranjo is divided into 29 coffee growing areas that are “blessed for coffee” enjoying ideal growing conditions - soil, altitude, rainfall, and temperature - that combine to produce a unique coffee with delicate aroma, mild body and pleasing taste. The cooperative has successfully improved the coffee production of its members and enhanced their communities socially, financially, and sustainably.
