Around 3,500 smallholder farmers deliver cherries to Bunyangabu Washing Station in Uganda’s Western Province. Grown at 1,300–1,600 MASL, this lot features SL28 and SL34.

Lactic fermentation is an anaerobic, controlled process in which lactic acid bacteria (LAB) break down sugars in coffee cherries, creating high levels of lactic acid that produce more distinctive floral, fruity, creamy, and buttery flavour notes, along with an enhanced velvety mouthfeel.

This fully washed, lactic-fermented lot is therefore velvety and distinctive, with notes of green apple, black tea, and citrus.

FAQ

Got questions? We've got answers.

Which coffee is right for me?

Do you prefer coffee with or without milk? Our espresso blends are tailored for milk coffees (Flat White, Latte, Cappucino etc) and are also what you have at your local cafe that serves Gabriel Coffee.

For a next level black coffee experience, our Single Origin releases are the way to go. Sourced direct from origin, these coffees aim to showcase the fine flavour profiles that each country & farm has to offer.

Pre-ground or whole bean?

We always recommend buying whole bean and grinding coffee fresh each time you brew. Pre-grinding coffee beans leaves more surface area to be affected by temperature and humidity, leading to faster aging and loss of flavour if not used quickly.

Our Rhinowares Hand Grinder is an awesome choice for a space saving grinder at home.

Which subscription is right for me?

Choosing the right subscription depends on your needs and preferences:

  • Pay-as-You-Go: Ideal if you prefer flexibility and no long-term commitments. You can skip, pause, modify or cancel your order anytime.
  • Pre-Paid: Perfect for those who want to save money who are ready for a longer commitment. Offers 3, 6, or 12-month options with upfront payment, monthly deliveries and continued flexibility to skip or change blends.
What are aeropress, Hario & Kalita?

These are all brands of equipment that allows you to brew a coffee that's different to your traditional espresso or stovetop methods. Commonly referred to as a filter coffee or alternative brew on a cafe menu, expect a lighter, easier drinking black coffee experience.

Our shop section has everything you need to get started at home.

How long do coffee beans last? Do I need to age it before drinking?

From our experience, when whole beans coffee are stored in a sealed container in dry, cool spot, we've found that it's good up to 4 weeks.

We aim to send you coffee that's around 2-4 days after roasting. By the time you receive it, you can start to brew without hesitation.
