This medium-dark roast blend combines coffees from Costa Rica, Ethiopia, India Arabica, and India Robusta. The coffee features bright and warm characteristics with lush, lingering chocolate notes. It presents a cheery, vibrant acidity that balances the rich, velvety body, creating an exquisitely smooth finish. The flavor profile includes berry, lemon, dark chocolate, nuts, and yogurt notes.
Voyager Craft Coffee started as a coffee trailer in San Jose, founded by Sameer Shah and Lauren Burns and built into a roasting operation around a 15 kilogram Giesen. The company has remained entirely self funded as it has grown, sourcing single origin coffees from Costa Rica, Guatemala, Ethiopia, and Colombia through direct trade relationships with farmers. Voyager reports paying roughly three times the commodity price for its arabica coffee. The operation pursues zero to landfill goals, composting used coffee grounds and donating leftover food. It is a roaster that has chosen deliberate, local growth over rapid expansion, keeping its footprint rooted in Santa Clara County.
