Big Day Out Instant Coffee

Peach Pecan Apple

In collaboration with our friends at Windthrow, Seattle's only outdoor store, we're releasing our first instant coffee: Big Day Out! After commiserating over the difficulties of getting a good cup far away from the luxuries of big city living, we came up with this: a Guatemalan single origin coffee roasted by Elm and processed by Swift Cup for immediate consumption on the trail, the road, or any other situation where you want good coffee but can only be bothered to boil water. The compostable box contains six packets, each enough for a single cup brew of 8-10oz. Brewing instructions are dead simple, just add hot water!

Chanjón, Huehuetenango

ASDEFLOR is the Asociación de Desarrollo Flor del Café (Coffee Flower Development Association), and it is a
tiny collective of just 30 members, all of whom belong to the Mam Mayan indigenous community. Mam is still the language used, Spanish being a second-language used only when speaking to mestizos. The Association owns a communal wet-mill where most members process their coffee. Fermentations are long and cold, between two and three days, and producers cover the tanks in thick plastic to ensure a homogenous and clean fermentation. At around 1700 masl, parchment is dried partially on raised beds and finished on patios at the wet-mill site.
