Why did you choose this coffee for the Advent Calendar?

We’re thrilled to have El Placer back this autumn! Our good friend Ole Kristian Bøen met the amazing people behind this coffee and strongly recommended we bring it in last season. It turned out to be a huge success — we fell in love with its vibrant sweetness and elegant complexity. We’re so happy to share it with you again!

Jacu

Our name comes from the bird Jacu in South America. It is known to run from plantation to plantation in the tropical areas looking for the best coffee beans. This story has inspired us and we work to find the world’s best coffee beans. We search for the good plantations and the optimal processing.

When the coffee beans arrive at our premises, they are roasted on the Loring S35 roaster. There we work to find the roasting profile that brings out the very best in the coffee beans. We process orders from our customers and pack and ship the same day as far as we can. Our daily focus is to deliver as good coffee as possible, both to private customers, coffee bars and cafes throughout Norway.
