About This Coffee

Brother Sun is a blend combining Honduras Ubaldo Moreno (50%), Burundi Ninga Hill (40%), and Honduras Santa Barbara Natural (10%). The Honduras Ubaldo Moreno component comes from Las Nieblas, a field blend of varieties grown on steep slopes. The Burundi Ninga Hill is grown with the Long Miles Coffee Project in the Kayanza region, offering red fruit and sweet citrus with a round sweet tea structure. The Honduras Santa Barbara Natural is sun-dried and produced by farmers across villages on Santa Barbara Mountain. The blend features sweet berry, stonefruit, and citrus flavors from moderate to high altitude terroir with bright, sweet, and clean flavor characteristics.

Saint Frank Coffee

Kevin Bohlin founded Saint Frank Coffee in San Francisco in 2013 after years as a middle school teacher and a formative stint at Ritual Coffee Roasters. His background in theology and cultural anthropology informs a sourcing philosophy he calls relational sourcing: buying exclusively from small scale producers through committed, long term relationships and paying well above market rates. Bohlin travels regularly to origin farms, building connections grounded in mutual accountability rather than third party certifications. Saint Frank also partners with Not For Sale, a nonprofit combating human trafficking, through its St. Clare Coffee program, which provides barista training and employment to survivors. The roastery's mission is flavor, meaning, and connection, pursued with the kind of humility that lets the people behind each coffee remain at the center of the story.
