The Journey of Our Beans
Sustainable Sourcing
We believe exceptional coffee begins at the source, rooted in respect for the land and its people. That's why Dove Droplet partners directly with dedicated farmers in the world's most renowed coffee-growing regions – from the lush highlands of Ethiopia to the fertile volcanic soils of Colombia. This direct-trade model ensures ethical practices, provides fair compensation to our growers, and fosters sustainable agricultural methods, resulting in a more transparent, environmentally conscious, and profoundly delicious cup, year after year. We nurture these relationships because we know a truly great bean comes from a truly great story.
Artisan Roasting in Portland
Once the green beans arrive at our Portland roastery, they embark on the final, transformative stage of their journey. Here, every batch is a meticulous, passionate labor of love. Utilizing a state-of-the-art Loring S35 Kestrel roaster, our expert roastmasters precisely develop the unique flavor profiles inherent in each origin. Through carefully calibrated temperature curves and vigilant observation, we unlock the beans' full potential, emphasizing bright notes of citrus, deep chocolate undertones, or delicate floral sweetness. This commitment to small-batch, precision roasting guarantees unparalleled freshness, consistency, and a truly unforgettable aromatic experience in every single package.
