Metapan, the largest component in our new espresso blend, comes from the Metapan Region of Northern El Salvador. This region sits right on the Trifinio Biosphere Reserve, where El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala all meet. Elevation and temperate climate in this region play a pivotal role in creating ideal growing conditions for exceptional coffee. Metapan is a regional lot and is made up of coffee from several small-scale producers in Metapan who bring cherry to the El Borbollon dry mill for processing and export.

One of the components of our Espresso (Light), which lends a punchy, fruit forward acidity to the overall blend, is from the Geta Bora Cooperative in Ethiopia. It is an incredibly young cooperative in comparison to their neighbors, but their member’s prime locations, soaring altitudes, and rich organic soils lend to a sparking and complex cup. Farmer members here cultivate coffees at altitudes between 2000 and 2200 masl and have around 2-3 hectares of land each in a highly forested area of Illubabor, namely the Metu Bishari forest. As is the case across Ethiopia, much of the coffees grown locally are organic by default, and consist mostly of old, naturally indigenous heirloom varieties. Geta Bora Cooperative was established in 2018 and has grown swiftly over the last two years to over 200 members.

Our Guatemala component comes from San Carlos - a 16 hectare farm owned by Ana Maria and Estela Durán, the same producers who own Villa Estela and San Ignacio. These three farms are historic farms founded by Carlos Durán in 1850 and are situated amongst the ruins, tiendas and restaurants of downtown La Antigua, Guatemala. The farms have passed through several generations of the Durán family and that familial pride shine through in the coffee they produce. The three farms have been managed for over 50 years by Jorge Alberto Zamora.

Interactions with Larry David on the TV show “Seinfeld”, led to J Gursey being the inspiration for the character “Mocha Joe” on “Curb Your Enthusiasm”. After collaborating with top chefs, studying under world champion baristas and master roasters, he and his team applied their culinary knowledge to each distinctive blend.

From crop to cup, our fair trade coffees are sourced responsibly from a limited supply of the highest quality beans available from regions around the world.  We meticulously choose and blend our coffees based on origin, taste and clean cultivation techniques.  The degree of roast is specifically balanced with the origin of the bean to create the ultimate experience for coffee lovers and connoisseurs.

Our proprietary oxygen-rich air bed roasting process distinguishes our flavor profile by utilizing the naturally arid southwest climate of Las Vegas, Nevada.  Each bean is gently enveloped in air as it roasts to optimal temperature. The resulting fusion is decadent, full-bodied, and deliciously satisfying.
