This one lives up to its name.
Cherry Bomb comes from Bette Buna, a producer we love for coffees that are just as thoughtful as they are wildly expressive.
Founded by Hester and Dawit, Bette Buna—meaning “Home of Coffee”—was built around the belief that specialty coffee can create opportunity from the ground up. Their work goes beyond growing great coffee, investing in education, skills, and long-term opportunities within the communities they work alongside.
That same intention carries into how they process their coffees.
Cherry Bomb is a 96-hour anaerobic natural, where ripe coffee cherries ferment in an oxygen-free environment before being dried whole. The process amplifies the coffee's natural fruit and floral character, creating a cup that's vibrant, juicy, and a little unexpected.
We're tasting pomegranate, blackberry, and lavender. Deep berry sweetness and tart, juicy fruit lifted by a soft floral finish.

We do not buy lots off a list. Siri travels to origin, sits with the producers, and keeps going back season after season. Five years with the same farm is not a slogan, it is a working relationship where both sides can plan.
That is why this coffee tastes the way it did last year, only better.
However you already make coffee is fine. If you want to get more out of the bag, start here.
Medium grind, water just off the boil, roughly sixty grams of coffee to a litre. Sweeter and more layered.
Fine grind, eighteen in and about thirty six out over thirty seconds. Adjust from there to taste.
Drip machine, French press, milk, oat, ice. There is no wrong way to drink your own coffee.
Two easy ways in. Neither of them requires you to already know what you like.
Sit at the bar and try five to ten side by side. Thirty five dollars, and you pick as you go.
A gift card lets them pick their own bag from whatever is on the bar that week, and it works on anything in the shop.
