2025 FREEZER SALE UPDATE (2025-12-17):

From Christopher: This is the only coffee that shares the exact same profile as its original release—having been roasted on the same day and using the same machine. Blue fruit shifts to red hibiscus as it rests with citrus acidity, dense structure, velvety body and caramel sweetness—this is everything I want in a washed Typica from anywhere in the world.


The twelfth and final coffee of our 2025 season comes from a single producer in Mazeteca in Oaxaca, Mexico—a washed process  presenting in a bright, fruited cup with notes of pomegranate, hibiscus, lime and melon. 

From Christopher: "Specialty coffee's fascination with transparency information is one that, I believe, arises from noble intentions. By identifying a producer—by name and by face—and telling their history with a record of the price they were paid for their coffee, we seem to believe we're closing the distance that coffee travels through complex supply chains across the world.

While transparency can serve as a tool to mitigate concerns of financial exploitation by showing that a 'fair price' was paid, the way we report it may lack sufficient context by which a consumer could make a determination around fairness or equity. Further, while bridging the gap between consumers and producers can help producers access a broader, more specific, more competitive market and thus receive a better price, it's also possible to levy criticisms against this practice—particularly if it relies on tokenization of a producer's image to sell coffee or imply a closeness or relationship that doesn't genuinely exist. That is to say: good intentions don't protect against all possible scenarios or contexts.

"In some situations, using imagery or details about a producer to market a coffee—with sufficient specificity to identify them locally—can create risks to their security and safety, particularly when the price paid for a coffee is dramatically out of step with the local price in places with limited government participation in daily life. In these contexts, we explore the tension between consumers’ and roasters’ desire for transparency and the practical realities of working in and buying from conflict zones—places torn apart by war, politics and history.

"There, to hold the fabric of communities intact, sometimes we must not stand apart, but stand together.

"Sierra Mazateca in Mexico is one such context that requires careful consideration as well as an understanding of the problematic history of encounters between indigenous communities and outsiders, security threats from narcotraffickers and federales, and the social risks posed by operating outside the local norms. After the collapse of the ejido system of land use under President Carlos Salinas de Gortari's neoliberal 'reforms,' many indigenous communities moved into the highlands—intentionally far from the reach of government, and in lands too inaccessible for exploitation by the government or corporations. Most of the communities don't speak Spanish—instead speaking Nahuatl or Mixtec or Zapotec or Maya or Mazatec—and the difficulty of navigating the terrain compounded their isolation, making accessing or aggregating coffee as difficult as the importance of those communities maintaining internal social cohesion and preserving their cultural identity.

"After the ICA collapsed, so too did prices for coffee—which by 1983 accounted for 35% of Mexico's agricultural exports. The Coordination of Coffee Grower Organizations estimates that as a result of the ensuing coffee crisis, Mexican coffee growers would have lost 65% of their potential revenues since the start of the crisis. As a result, 71% of coffee growers stopped using fertilizers, 40% reduced pruning, and 75% stopped investing in control of pests, leading to lower qualities, yields and resiliency ahead of the coffee leaf rust outbreak in Latin America in 2012.

"In response, many of the coffee growers in Mexico—who today number more than 500,000, 85% of whom are indigenous and with 95% growing coffee on fewer than 3 hectares of land—organized into informal cooperatives or otherwise collaborated to mitigate their risk and attempt to access the best price for their coffee.

"Buying coffees like this one in the way it was purchased—outside of those cooperative structures and bypassing local coyotes who have operated as virtual monopolies and suppressed prices and capturing any premiums paid themselves—is difficult, requiring the building of trust over years and a delicate hand. If the price paid were to be discovered locally it could incite jealousy, theft or, in some cases, violence—or merely break trust and the social contract in the community, eroding longstanding social bonds as well as access to market for those communities.

"And so we present this coffee under an assumed name—and without a portrait. It's not merely an act of respect—it's in keeping with the spirit of the agreement we've made with the third-party agent whose relationships we rely on to access coffees in these communities and whose staff on the ground must maintain their own networks of trust. 

"In the end, we have a coffee that is able to speak for itself: an old rootstock Typica processed in a traditional manner that presents in the cup with fruited notes of dried raspberry, pomegranate, hibiscus, lime and bright orange acidity."

Great toy
Color: Black/Orange
This brand really makes durable toys. They outlast every other toy my dogs have. One dog loves to get the squeaker out of any toy, but he doesn’t rip this one apart. Obviously it won’t last forever, but no toy does! Some other brands of toys only make it a day or two, while these last months to years.

Great toy for two big German Shepherds
Color: Brown
We only buy Tuffy dog toys now because we have one German Shepherd, and we often watch our daughter's GSD too, and the two dogs tear anything else apart in minutes. Tuffy toys are BY FAR superior to any other dog toy we have tried. That being said, some Tuffy toys seem to last longer than others with the two dogs, and this one has been pretty good! We've had it for a few weeks now, and it's just now starting to show some white (stuffing) where their teeth have pierced the top of the toy. That's pretty good, considering they play tug of war with it and can tear into toys pretty hard. If it were just our one dog, I think it would last a lot longer because it's the tug of war between the two of them that does them in faster. Even so, when they do manage to tear the fabric in vulnerable places, I just pull the stuffing out from that area, and they continue to play with it, sometimes for months! This one is better than some other Tuffy toys too because it has lots of areas where there is already more fabric and reinforced seams than stuffing, like all the legs on the side, the tail, and even the pincers. So far, they haven't been able to tear into those at all. Just a bit on the top of the head, and so far, no stuffing coming out yet. This one is a big win for us! When they finally do do it in, I will turn around and buy another Scorch the Scorpion right away!

Tuffy Desert Phrog vs Lola
Color: Green Leaping Phrog, Color: Green Leaping Phrog
Just a little background about my dog. Lola is a 5 year old corgi-terrier mix with jaws of steal. Lesser stuffed toys have met death in under 5 minutes. Tennis balls last less than a day. Rope toys that do not have frayed ends might possibly last a week (frayed ends never stand a chance). The only toys that she has not managed to destroy are her Kong, a Kong bone, and a racquet ball. I figured I would document the life span of Phrog (Tuffy Scale: 9) before making my final judgement on it’s durability. Day 1 - Phrog Arrives! Lola was very excited about the arrival of Phrog and immediately went into destruction mode. Phrog did sustain a little damage before we were able to bribe her to drop Phrog and get her understand that he was more fun to play fetch with than to mutilate. The white you see in the picture is not stuffing, but the second layer of defense for the toy. The fact that my living room is not full of stuffing and I didn’t have to pry a squeaker out of my dog’s mouth, I’d say Phrog wins the Day 1 challenge. Day 9 - Phrog has sustained a little more damage, but not anything life threatening. His side wound is a little bit larger and one of his eyes is half ripped off. For safety reasons, I am going to finish removing the damaged eye and some loose thread from various places. Other than that, Phrog is still holding up and holds top toy spot. I have also found him very useful for dealing with anxiety; the squeaker can often distract her from her stressors and Phrog takes the abuse of her frustrations. Day 16 - Phrog is starting to show signs of mortal wounds. Lola has made it through the thicker layer around his arm and I can see the stuffing. It is only a matter of time before gets all the way through. Day 60 - Phrog still lives!!! I have done some surgery on Phrog to reinforce the fabric around his arms, but Franken-Phrog is still the favorite of all of the toys. She will even get brave enough to rescue Phrog from the evil vacuum when he is kidnapped and tortured. I am thinking about purchasing Phrog II for the inevitable day when Phrog goes off to the pet toyland in the sky, but for now, there is only one Phrog for Lola.
