Coffee Information

About the farmer

Bayron is in year two of Aldea's specialty coffee processing training program. This is the first release of his coffee as an individual microlot.

How to brew

With tasting notes of red apple, passion fruit, and a chocolate liquor finish, Bayron’s coffee is excellent when brewed in an AeroPress. The AeroPress combines immersion and pressure, resulting in a vibrant and concentrated brew. Aeropressing Bayron’s coffee enhances the fruity notes of red apple and passion fruit, while the almost espresso-like consistency of an Aeropressed brew highlights the smooth body and chocolate liquor finish.

Online orders are packaged to ship on Tuesdays and Fridays. No matter when you place your order, it will ship within 4 days.

We are currently roasting full days, Monday through Friday. So, yes! Your coffee should be freshly roasted, and ready to drink upon receiving. Our roastery team is incredibly mindful about ensuring your coffee will be at its best when it arrives to you.

Whew, this is a question! Aldea is different for 3 main reasons. 

First, Aldea grew out of a non-profit organization working in Honduras. Through this relationship, we can purchase coffee directly from the farmer and pay our farmers at a minimum, 50% above fair-trade. 

Second, we roast our coffee in small batches of 15 pounds at a time. This allows us to have more control over our profiles, and maintain consistency batch to batch. 

Third, we became a Certified B Corp in 2020. Certified B Corps are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. This certification holds us accountable to make the best decisions for our employees, the coffee farmers, and the communities we work in. 

Aldea Coffee is a people-and-planet-before-profit, B Corp. By partnering directly with farmers, roasting specialty coffee, and serving you, we strive to bring the highest level of social and environmental engagement to all the communities in which we work.
