SPECIALTY-GRADE BEANS

We use specialty-grade beans from the Oromia Farmers Co-Op in Yirgacheffee, Ethiopia. Graded with a cupping score of 85-90, this group of farmers' coffee beans is known for their sweet and clean flavours.

For those who aren't familiar with Ethiopian coffee, it's known for being the birth place of coffee and its mountainous climate continues to produce some of the highest quality in the world.

PERFECT EXTRACTION

Extraction is when hot water runs through the coffee beans to create the liquid versions in our cups.

A major difference between our 'Just Add Water' coffee and your everyday instant is how we extract the liquid from the bean for best flavour instead of most coffee liquid (over extraction). 

Over-extracted beans lead to a bitter (but more economical) cup of coffee.  With Three Capes, we've worked to get the extraction just right to get the very best from our beans.
