Fourteen years of Chromatic and a little magic in the mix give rise to a playful cup with plenty to explore, made to celebrate everyone who’s helped us keep this thing going since 2012.

From the misty forests of Oaxaca’s Sierra Sur, Yogondoy brings together smallholder grown Pluma coffee and an extended fermentation wet process. The result is honey sweet, with a silky flow that lives up to the community’s Zapotec name: River of Bees.

This peaberry selection comes from the New Ngariama Cooperative on the slopes of Mount Kenya. A traditional Kenyan double washed process gives the cup lively definition, while a medium light roast keeps everything sweet, silky, and in motion.

Gondo came ready to make some noise. Grown along the Aberdare slopes of Mathioya in West Murang’a, this double washed lot brings serious clarity to an absolutely loaded cup. Ripe blackberry & black currant set the bassline, red grapefruit and pineapple light up the top end.

If you didn’t know, Chromatic Coffee hand stamps each and every bag of coffee sold, front and back. The Chromatic Plate is there for it all and its legacy deserves a spotlight
