Red Natural

Balck Coffee is a specialty roaster based in Kalmar, Sweden, roasting since 2016 with a direct-trade model that cuts out the middlemen. They work directly with growers in Costa Rica, Brazil, Nicaragua, and Colombia, sourcing single-origin beans for both filter and espresso. Their philosophy? Let farmers set their own prices and earn the same respect as a French winemaker. It's a smaller operation with real heart, featuring standout producers like Sebastian Ramirez of Finca El Placer and the legendary Adriano of Das Almas. They offer a subscription for hassle-free refills, and a rotating lineup of carefully sourced lots that put the people behind each bean front and center.
