Tim Wendelboe - Gachatha (Espresso)
$29.00 CAD
We couldn’t be more excited to bring back Tim Wendelboe, who was also our very first international feature back in the day! If you haven’t heard of them yet, trust me—you’re in for a treat. These guys are basically coffee celebrities. Led by none other than World Barista Champion (2004) Tim Wendelboe himself, this Oslo-based roastery is all about incredible, light-roasted coffees that are sustainably sourced and ethically produced. We’re proud to bring this amazing experience right to your cup—again!
And seriously, we could go on forever about their awards, but let's stick to the highlights: they’ve won the World Cup Tasting Championship (2005), they’re eight-time winners of the Nordic Roaster Championship (2008-2019), and were named Best Coffee Roaster in Europe (2013). Oh, and did I mention The New York Times called their shop "a neighborhood shop run like a Michelin-starred restaurant"? Yeah, they’re that good.
We’re thrilled to feature Gachatha, a Kenyan coffee from the Gachatha wet mill that stands out for its distinct, intense fruity flavour and refreshing acidity. Expect a delightful mix of hibiscus, rose hips, and rhubarb in every sip. This coffee showcases the best of Kenyan beans, offering a bright and complex profile that’s perfect for those who love vibrant, fruit-forward brews.
"The coffees from the Gachatha wet mill has consistently been among the best coffees I have tasted in Kenya over many years and because they produce such consistent high quality there is a big demand for these coffees." — Tim Wendelboe
