From the mixed up files of…
While cleaning out some old paperwork, we came across these original sketches of our logo that we thought would be fun to share with you
Back in 2004, we gave my brother some coffee beans that we thought looked slightly grumpy.
A couple of simple sketches later, inspired by those coffee beans with imagined faces, we had a logo!

Gatare – Cup of Excellence #6
Review by Kenneth Davids, coffeereview.com, March 2012:
Notes: The Cup of Excellence is the most esteemed competition for green coffees from a given country of origin. This coffee was the sixth-place prize winner from the 2012 Rwanda competition chosen by a select group of international cuppers. Produced from trees of the heirloom Bourbon variety of Arabica.
Blind assessment: Intense, zesty but sweet. Grapefruit, peach, rose-like flowers, baker’s chocolate in aroma and cup. Richly crisp acidity; silky mouthfeel. The floral note in particular carries into a long, dry, flavor-saturated finish.
Who should drink it: Those who enjoy dry, floral-toned white wines and the pungent dry-berry elegance of fine Kenya coffees.
Aroma: 8
Acidity: 9

Roast (Agtron): (52/62)
