OJ OJ is a Bourbon placed in fresh Salvadoran orange juice. It fermented in the juice for 96 hours, then was drained and dried as a natural on raised beds.

Rodolfo works on Cerro El Águila at 1,500 to 1,600 metres. He treats processing as a design discipline rather than a tradition to defend.

V60 — 1:16, 3:00, medium-fine at 94 °C, bloom 45 s. Origami — 1:16, 3:15, single spiral pour. AeroPress — 15 g : 220 g, 2:00, inverted, stir at 1:00.

Roasted as a light Nordic-style omni roast — a profile built for filter, with a long, gentle caramelisation at a lower finishing temperature. It keeps the origin's acidity, clarity and aromatics intact, and it happily travels to other preparations.

Santa Ana lots open slowly — this one is at its best after a month of rest, and two months is even better.

Also good

This one rewards these too.

You can also try other brewing methods — the omni roast leaves room to experiment.

Use a precise grinder and adjust to the cup. Each coffee may need a different setting.

Making coffee is an art at every stage. At the final stage, we collaborate with an artist on an original oil painting that subtly shares this coffee’s story. Its print on your bag is a small collectible; a share of every bag returns to the artist’s studio.

Frog Facts

  • 96h orange-juice co-fermented natural — The cherry dries whole in the sun, so the fruit sugars stay with the bean — sweeter, heavier, more berry-like.
  • Needs a month to open up — two even better
  • Grown at 1500 to 1600 masl.
  • A print of an original oil painting — a small collectible, with a share of every bag returning to the artist.

Cup-checked before it ships.

Only coffee that passes goes into bags. Batches that fall short are still good coffee — they go to NGOs and social organisations instead of the bin. How we check
