The coffee we sell is specialty coffee.

Do you sell specialty coffee? I think you might be asking this question, so I'll answer it. Basically, we sell specialty coffee. However, we do sell some other types of coffee. Something that is not specialty coffee would be commodity coffee, but the coffee we sell is not specialty coffee, but it is not a commodity and is just as good as specialty coffee.

A prerequisite for specialty coffee is that quality control is carried out at every stage, from the production of the coffee beans to the time they are served in the shop.
In addition, people called Q graders, who are similar to wine sommeliers, come together to evaluate the beans, and anything above 80 points is considered OK.

The coffee bean wholesaler that we deal with carries out strict quality control from bean production to shipping to the store, and we have confirmed that it is okay to call the coffee specialty coffee.

An easy-to-understand criterion for determining whether something is specialty is whether it includes the name of the farm and whether it is clear who made it.
However, since this is specialty coffee, it is not necessarily unacceptable if the farm does not have a name, even if it is produced using a method such as a "washing station," which collects and ships out beans from small-scale producers.

To be honest, it's actually more difficult to find beans that a small shop like ours can handle that aren't specialty beans.

So, please feel free to purchase.
