I have just spent a week in Colombia together with Don Elias at Finca Tamana. He is now starting his main harvest, and in a couple of weeks we will be starting to sell the recently arrived November 2012 harvest in our store. My reason for visiting was to follow up on all the projects we […]

I’m hijacking the Tim Wendelboe news column to say farewell and thanks to everyone who have made my time here so deeply rewarding, inspiring and enlightening. I’ve been completely immersed in the world of Tim Wendelboe since the beginning some 6 years ago. When hearing the opening of the Bar Manager position at Tim Wendelboe,

I have spent the last 10 days in Central America, visiting Gilberto at Los Pirineos in El Salvador, Marysabel, Moises and Fabio and their farms in Marcala, as well as Jobneel at Nacimiento in Honduras. The purpose of the trip was to make sure the coffees we buy are harvested, processed and dried up to

I am excited to announce that the “Svart Presisjon”,  the new automatic filter coffee brewer from Wilfa, has finally been launched for sale.   I have spent a lot of time over the past 2 years together with Wilfa giving them feedback and teaching them about coffee. The first result was the manual brewer “Svart

We will now host public cuppings in the Cupping Room every Saturday from 11am. It’ll be your chance to taste our coffees side by side and perhaps to taste some pre-release coffees or coffee from other roasters around the globe. It’s open to everyone of all levels. There are 6 available spaces, and the cuppings
