LoCo Beans® — Fresh Roasted Coffee, Inc.

(8 September) LoCo Beans Family,

Summer Campaign: Congratulations to all who received an award - or more than one award - in our 2026 Summer Campaign. All-in-all we gave out 99 awards this year! Mark next June 1st on your calendar as the start of our 2027 campaign…

==================================

Pop-up Offerings: Sales of Bolivian organic washed Geisha come to a close this month. Next in queue is a reprise of natural-processed Bolivian Pacamara! After that will be Ugandan and then Rwandan. Such pop-ups complement - not replace - the beans in our lineup that you’ve come to love! This is our way of introducing fresh new offerings without overwhelming the workspace. It’s a fun and educational experience on both sides of the counter!

==================================

Ordering Coffee Online for Pick-Up at the Silo: When ordering coffee online you are presented with an option to either have your coffee shipped via US mail or placed in one of our silo dropboxes for pick-up at your convenience. There are three dropboxes (A, B, and C) tucked behind shutters on north-facing silo windows. Upon receipt of your order we will place your coffee in one of these dropboxes, and send you an e-mail stating which box it is in, along with the code to open the box. Coffee may be picked-up any time - night or day. We do ask that you pick-up your coffee promptly, since space in the boxes is limited. If you have any trouble finding the Local Pickup option when ordering online, please visit our FAQ page.

==================================

Natural-Processed Coffee: If you’re a coffee enthusiast, or even just someone who appreciates a truly flavorful cup, you owe it to yourself to explore natural-processed coffee. Natural processing is where coffee cherries are dried with the beans still inside, unlocking an ensemble of flavors that are simply unattainable through washed processes. Imagine:

• Intense Fruitiness: Expect vibrant notes of ripe berries, tropical fruits, and even stone fruits like apricot and plum. This isn't just "coffee flavor," it's a complex, layered experience.

• Rich, Syrupy Body: Natural processing imparts a heavier, more viscous mouthfeel, creating a luxurious and satisfying texture.

• Sweetness Amplified: The drying process concentrates the natural sugars in the cherry, resulting in a naturally sweeter cup, often with hints of chocolate and caramel.

• A Unique, Wild Character: Each natural processed coffee tells a story of its origin, with distinct and often surprising flavor profiles.

This isn't your everyday coffee. It’s an adventure for your taste buds, a journey toward exploring the real characters of the coffee beans.
