Description

The Modest is our most popular coffee subscription because these coffees are always smooth, accessible and delicious. We think of it as the Goldilocks of coffee; not too light, not too dark. They are easy to brew too! Great for any brew method including espresso and drip. If you are looking for the perfect medium roast coffee subscription then The Modest is for you.

Features:

  • Medium Roast – Coffee Subscription Billed Monthly, Weekly, or Bi-Weekly
  • Our most approachable coffees
  • Consistent flavor profiles
  • Beans change 4 or more times per year
  • Central and South American Origins
  • Allows for quality coffees to be purchased up to 250% over index
  • Roasts in the Full City to Full City+ range (Medium to Medium/Dark Roasted Coffee)*

Our focus here at Modest Coffee is to make single-origin coffee more accessible to coffee drinkers everywhere. One of the ways we do that is to offer categories that better reflect the specialty coffee marketplace. We feel this practice gives greater transparency to the entire supply chain and democratizes the buying process. Additionally, we are convinced there is no “wrong way” to do coffee(except flavored coffee, we draw the line there). It doesn’t matter if you like cream and sugar, or drink it black. As long as you enjoy what you are drinking you are doing it right.

Specialty coffee without the snobbery. That’s what makes us Modest Coffee.

*We roast our beans to preserve and compliment the flavors of origin. There will always be a bit of variety in our roasts as we strive to express the best that each bean has to offer.

“How many bags will I need per month?” By our calculations, one person who drinks one cup per day will go through about two bags per month.

ABOUT THIS COFFEE

This coffee is sourced from the Guji Coffee Export PLC, which is owned and operated by Girma Edema who has more than 20 years of experience exporting coffee from the Kercha district in the Oromia region of Ethiopia. Coffee producers deliver their ripe cherries to the Girma’ s coffee washing station where the cherries are sorted an immediately placed on raised beds and dried over a period of 15 to 20 days. The raised drying beds are carefully constructed to ensure proper air circulation and temperature control for an optimal drying process. Cherries are also turned regularly on the beds to prevent damage during the drying process. The cherries are stored in a local warehouse after the moisture is reduced to between 11.5 and 12 percent. Then the beans are transported to Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, to be milled and bagged prior to export. Girma’s full control of the processing up to the final export stage, results in an exceptionally clean and sweet cup profile.

    This has been my go-to daily coffee (Chemex pour-over) for several years now, especially during the pandemic. Not sure why I waited to subscribe – the best way to get fresh beans!
