This single-origin coffee from the Uraga district in Ethiopia's Sidamo region is a naturally processed bean with a syrupy body. Grown at high elevation on a 40-hectare estate managed by Milkesa Anole, the coffee features marionberry and sweet orange citrus notes in the cup, complemented by soft chocolate nougat throughout. The finish is chocolatey and sweet with subtle vanilla maple syrup notes.

Founded in 1983 by Mike McLaughlin, a Richmond schoolteacher, alongside Pete and Bob McLaughlin, this family owned roaster began with a repurposed peanut roaster holding just 10 pounds per batch. Based in Emeryville, California, McLaughlin has evolved into a multigenerational operation with Mike's son Mark rejoining the family business after a career in Silicon Valley tech. The company sources and roasts premium coffee beans with the same precision and care it has maintained since its founding, blending traditional values with modern specialty coffee standards.
