Factoid: Tega & Tula Specialty Coffee Farm is named after the two nearby villages of Tega and Tula, found in the woreda, or district, of Gibo, in Kaffa, Ethiopia. The farm is 500 hectares in size, with nearly 400 hectares planted in coffee, primarily Ethiopian varieties and cultivars that were released in the late 1970s (74110 and 74112, for example, are the "names" of two of these cultivars from 1978), as well as some wild coffee from the Kaffa forests, as the farm is in the Kaffa bio-reserve area. The farm is certified organic and produces both Washed and Natural coffee.

FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
Do you flavor your coffee?
We don’t offer flavored coffees, but our specialty-grade coffees naturally exhibit diverse flavors influenced by origin, variety, soil, climate, elevation, and processing. Like wine, each coffee’s unique notes—sweetness, acidity, and mouthfeel—are detailed on its tag. Brewing methods also affect flavor: cold brew enhances chocolate notes, while pour-over highlights floral and citrus tones. Experiment to find your favorite brew.
How much caffeine is in your coffee?
Caffeine content is reliant largely on bean variety, roast profile, and extraction method. The darker the roast, the less caffeine. The more water used per unit of coffee, the more caffeine is extracted. Roughly speaking, an 8-ounce cup of coffee will have somewhere between 85 and 105 mg of caffeine.
What is Cold Brew and Nitro Brew?
Cold brew is a method of brewing coffee using cold or room temperature water. You can use any bean to make cold brew.
“Nitro” cold brew is nitrogen-infused cold brewed coffee. We follow the same recipe as our traditional “still” cold brew, and then pressurize the keg with nitrogen to give the coffee a smooth effervescence that pours with a dense frothy head reminiscent of a Guinness draft beer. It is non-alcoholic and has about the same caffeine content as still cold brew.
