The True Taste Of Single Origin Coffee
Single origin means it comes from a specific location and it is not mixed with other beans to get a certain flavor. Essentially the bean is allowed to speak for itself. Often, no cream or sugar is added and the true aroma and flavor shine through. This is the approach that Hill Tree Roastery has taken in its business.

Coffee sustainability is something that might not be in your conversation at the breakfast table with your family this holiday season, but honestly it should be. There are so many intricate moving parts to making sure coffee is sustainable from a farming, roasting and brewing perspective. Social sustainability in coffee is very important.

From Farm to Cup
Coffee beans start out as a simple seed that’s planted most often in a controlled nursery environment. This helps the seed mature while being sheltered from harsh sunlight and other natural elements. Once the plant is mature enough, it’s planted in a permanent spot where it can take root and continue to grow into a coffee tree.

Your Roast, Your Palate, and Your Beans
Coffee is much like art but instead of it being in the eye of the beholder its dependent upon the taste buds of the person taking the sips. Flavors such as blueberry, chocolate and strawberry are not as uncommon as you might think. But what is it exactly that gives coffee its unique flavors? The roasting process of course!
