Single Origin Coffee

Single Origin coffees come from a single farm or cooperative of farms in one geographical area. How do we select a coffee to be a Zoka Single Origin? Founder/CEO Jeff Babcock and Head Roaster Don K. travel to visit coffee farms and meet the growers. During these trips, they're able to cup hundreds of coffees to select the best to bring home. We score these coffees using the Cup of Excellence® scoring method. Single Origins are typically small harvests of which we purchase small quantities. Each is available for a limited time. The label names the farm on which it was grown, the processing method and the cupping notes we tasted.
