What Swerl Coffee Roasters says about this coffee
Welcome to the Odd Bean collection. This project started from the idea of wanting to find a home for all the beans in our roastery that are waiting for someone to enjoy them. At the end of every week, we end up with small batches of leftover coffee beans that are carefully packed.

Direct trade
“Grateful for all the work everyone does, from our direct trade partners in Brazil the Barreto family, the amazing work of the importer Semilla helping to build producer-run collectives at origin, to single producers like Jhon Jairo in Colombia dedicated to quality, community and consistency.” their page (opens in a new tab)
