Sourced & Roasted With Intention
We individually profile and roast each coffee to their specific sweet-spot
Sourcing & Selection
Vesta direct sources 90% of our coffees directly from farmers and coops at origin. And uses trusted export partners for the remaining coffees.
All coffees are selected based on taste profiles. We believe that origin, processing and terroir all play a part to make each coffee unique.
Maintaining Relationships
You will notice that many of our coffees are available for multiple years. We are proud (and thankful) to be able to work with many of the same farmers year-after-year. Many times purchasing the farmers entire harvest. Helping the producer have some economic stability, and helping us with a consistent product year after year.
