One More Thing: Nestled near the Geta River in Sidama's Bura district is Gara Agena. This coffee went through a special prep; cherries picked at peak ripeness, immersed in water to remove floaters and soaked for 8 hours. They're then depulped and fermented for 36 hours. The parchment coffee is finally dried on raised beds in shade for 21 days - resulting in a clean and stone fruit forward cup.

We fresh roast and pack Parachutes in small batches, then nitro-flush, so they’re at optimum freshness for 3 months.

Hang these babies over a mug, add just off the boil hot water, and you’ve got a V60-esque brew on the fly.

We've upsized our old 48 Parachutes pack to a well rounded 50 pack. Enjoy a little longer.
