Heresy
Heresy is a Polish coffee roastery, offering specialty beans evaluated with at least 86 points. The brand focuses on selecting the most interesting microlots, emphasising above all the role of the farm, where most of the coffee's flavour is formed. The owners value constant cooperation with farmers, direct and sustainable distribution, and regular trips to the plantations.
The beans are conveniently packed in fully recyclable or reusable jars. The label describes the flavour in the form of a pie chart, consisting of fruity, floral or Maillard notes in varying proportions. The limited offer consists of three coffees roasted for filter methods and one dedicated to espresso.
The lack of the flavour notes, the focus on the role of farmers, the absence of brewing recipes or the 252-gram jars are just some of the "heresies" proclaimed by the brand's founders, to reform the approach to coffee.
The creators of Heresy are Piotr Jeżewski - Q-Grader and Vice Champion of Polish Roasting 2020, and Karolina Kosno, previously associated with Coffeedesk and Specialty Coffee Association.

Heresy - Ethiopia Gotiti Washed Filter 250 g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 11.08.2026
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Ethiopia, roasted by Heresy roasting brand. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. The brew resembles the flavour of flowers, stone fruits, citrus fruits and blueberries.Origin: EtiopiaRegion: GedebFarm: Gotiti KebeleProcessing: WashedAltitude: 2100 m a.s.l.Cupping score: 87 / 100ABOUT THE COFFEE FARM AND PRODUCERGotiti is a very young station, established only in 2022 on an area of two hectares. Since its inception, it has been systematically developing, and its long-term plans include sourcing groundwater for processing as well as installing mechanical dryers and solar tunnels.The station employs six permanent workers, six seasonal workers, and 244 temporary workers. Each year, it processes between 500 and 600 tons of fruit supplied by 868 farmers who grow coffee in small backyard gardens. The main varieties cultivated in this region are local 7454, 74110, 7440, and 74112.The station applies rigorous procedures in terms of management and traceability of raw material origin. These include reducing water consumption and keeping detailed documentation at every stage of the supply chain — from farming to export.ABOUT THE PROCESSING OF COFFEE BEANS AT THE FARMThe 74110 variety, hand-picked by 868 smallholders. Before the actual process, it undergoes initial selection, during which unripe cherries or impurities are removed. Before separating the bean from the fruit, the cherries are washed, then fermented for 24 hours, and washed again. Dried on African beds for about 12-14 days.ROASTER'S OPINIONA canonical example of washed Ethiopia of the highest possible quality. We are starting the fresh harvest season from this country with a real gem! Many layers, flowers, fruit, and elegant sweetness.Store in a cool and dry place.
Heresy - Nectar Fruity Espresso Blend 252 g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 01.09.2026
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Ethiopia and Honduras, roasted by Heresy. Dark roast, perfect for espresso, coffee machines, and moka pots. You can expect hints of stone fruits, flowers, citrus fruits and chocolate.Kraj pochodzenia ziarna: Ethiopia / HondurasRegion: Sidama / Santa BarbaraFarma: Nguisse Kayimo / Javier FernandezPorcessing: Natural / Fermented HoneyAltitude: 2050 / 1600 m a.s.l.Cupping score: 87 / 100ABOUT THE FARM AND THE COFFEE PRODUCERNguisse is one of those producers for whom coffee cultivation is much more than just a random agricultural activity. For many Ethiopians, coffee is a symbol, a national pride, and a lifestyle – the finalist of last year's Cup of Excellence certainly belongs to this group! His small farm of about 8 hectares is located in the Bensa region, which, in our opinion, holds the best quality potential. The crops here reach well above 2000 meters above sea level and usually consist of selected, single botanical varieties.Javier is the son of Don Andres, a producer whose coffees we have already hosted in our brown jars. His farm is just around the corner, and the terrace of the washing station offers such an extraordinary view of the valley and Lake Yojoa that if Bill Gates had visited this place, this very landscape would be known worldwide as the Windows desktop background. The Fernandez family (because there is also a second son, Nahun!) is not afraid to play around with processing, and thanks to bold experiments, year after year they deliver some of the best lots in all of Santa Barbara. This is an opinion, not a fact. But also a fact.ABOUT THE COFFEE BEAN PROCESSING ON THE FARMWhat we have here is a 66-34 blend. The Ethiopia was processed as a natural – drying the coffee seeds inside the whole fruit. Freshly picked cherries undergo an initial selection, during which those with defects are rejected. Then, they are spread across so-called African beds – long tables, sometimes stretching for dozens (!) of meters, with a mesh lining that allows for even air circulation throughout the process, resulting in homogeneous drying. The whole process takes between 25 and 30 days, depending on the weather.On the other hand, Javier's lot is a longer-fermented honey – before depulping, the cherries fermented for 96 hours in a tank, and only later were they spread out to dry with a thick layer of mucilage. This technique extracted more deep, fruity-wine notes from the coffee.ROASTER'S OPINIONHere is our concept for this espresso: we created a roast profile that showcases the beautiful notes of flowers and fruits typical of high-quality Ethiopian coffees, but at the same time, on the flip side, offers quite a bit of chocolate-dessert depth, which also balances the acidity and gives the cup equilibrium. As a result, whether you brew it in an espresso machine, a moka pot, or even as a filter coffee, you will get a full, round, and complex coffee with a long-lasting, syrupy aftertaste!Store in a dry and cool place.

However, the Bayter family has rapidly transformed the plantation into one of the most advanced in the industry in terms of complex processing and cultivating a whole range of select, highly sought-after botanical varieties, such as Geisha, Pink Bourbon, Laurina, or Pacamara.Currently, El Vergel is conducting continuous research on bacteria and yeast to achieve even greater precision in controlling fermentation, and consequently, modulating flavor.In addition to coffee production, the Bayters are the force behind Forest, a company involved in both the export and import of green coffees, which means we were able to purchase this coffee directly, without any intermediaries.ABOUT THE COFFEE PROCESSING ON THE FARMThe Caturra variety, hand-picked, processed as washed, and decaffeinated using the sugarcane method with ethyl acetate, which reduces the caffeine content to approximately 0.1%.ROASTER'S OPINIONHonest truth – in a blind tasting, we would have trouble realizing this is a decaf. It tastes like top-tier, classic washed Colombias. Distinct, crisp fruit, high sweetness, chocolatey notes in the aftertaste. Top-notch!Store in a cool and dry place.
Heresy - Antidotum Filter 252g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 14.07.2026
Some 75% of all coffee produced in the world comes from Brazil, the vast majority being commercial grand blends from around the region. In the world of speciality coffee, we have to deal with those as well. That's why we created the Antidote, a coffee that is an antidote to the flood of santos, cerrados, and other coffees, that are far from transparent and demonstrating the producer's role in the whole process. This is for fans of the classics who do not let go of quality. For those who value true fair trade. The first classic brazil in our range!Specialty quality bean coffee, roasted at Heresy roastery by the 2020 Roasting Runner-up. Light roasted, designed for pour-over brewing methods or pour-over in a cup. A profile with a classic Brazilian flavour, with nut and chocolate notes, in the highest quality.Country: BrazilProducer: 20 members of San Coffee CooperativeFarm: San CoffeeVarietal: mundo novo, topazio, catuaiProcessing: naturalAltitude: 900 - 1200 m a.s.l.PROCESSING20 manufacturers, the same natural processing technique calibrated between them. Thanks to close cooperation and rigid standards, each lot is processed and dried in an almost identical manner.THE FARMSan Coffee is a rarity in Brazil. Most co-operatives in the country are made up of hundreds or thousands of producers, whose role is often limited to just supplying the coffee, nothing else. San Coffee is made up of only 20 producers who also own the company, with equally distributed shares of 5% each. We have been working with them since the very beginning of Heresy, presenting fruity microlots like Taquaral, Campo Alegre and Samambaia. This time it's time for the classic product of their work!ROASTER'S COMMENTIn the cup as classically as possible. Acidity practically invisible, shadow work. Chocolate and nuts in the liquid form. You know what I mean!PACKAGINGThe coffee is packed in a brown jar made of PET, 100% recyclable or reusable. In case you're thinking "oh no, plastic!", bear in mind that standard coffee packaging is also made of plastic (and a few other materials, making it often harder to recycle). We also thought about glass, but it's heavier, more expensive, breakable and, wait for it, has the same or greater (sic!) environmental impact! A plastic jar turns out to be pretty eco-friendly, just remember to put it in the right container, or find a creative way to reuse it at home.Store in a cold and dry space.
Heresy - Pastor Universal Heretic Blend 252g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 01.09.2026
A blend of specialty quality coffees, roasted at Heresy roastery by the 2020 Roasting Vice-Champion. Dark roasted, designed to be brewed in an espresso machine, café, frenchpress or pour-over methods of brewing or brewing in a cup. Profile with low acidity and higher bitterness.This is the most budget-friendly coffee in Heresy's portfolio and perhaps the most heretical! Pastor is a blend of coffees from the previous season, which proves that there is nothing wrong with transparently communicating the harvest date! We roast this coffee darker, though in a way that makes it suitable for a variety of brewing methods. It will work especially well in an espresso machine or a mokka pot, and for fans of lower acidity, higher bitterness and sweet chocolate and caramel notes, also in filter methods. That's why we call it an all-purpose blend. Pastor doesn't offer coffees eternal life, but gives a second one to those that deserve it!WHAT A HERESYAlmost every roaster has some coffee left over from the previous crop when new, fresher coffee from the last harvest comes in. These beans are often still good, especially if their quality was high from the beginning, although it usually happens that they lose some intensity and sometimes there are notes associated with some woody impression which appear. There are different ideas about how to use them. Quite a few roasters sell them at regular price, without disclosing the harvest date, some add them to cheaper blends, others try to hide the flavor with darker roasting or aromatization. To put the emphasis on fresh, up-to-date crops in our offerings, we always include their dates in the description of our lots. We dream of making this an industry standard! So that the consumer can more consciously judge quality and freshness against price. Meanwhile, there is nothing wrong with "past crops" themselves, if we say so directly and price them accordingly lower. It may be one of the few such approaches in the market, but it's time to bring a little more transparency to the subject of past crop coffees!COFFEEVariety: blendProcessing: blendProducer: blendFarm: blendOrigin: blendElevation: variousHarvest: harvest from the previous season!Cupping score: coffees scoring a minimum of 86 / 100 points when cupping on fresh beansROASTER'S REVIEWIf you are a coffee geek looking for flowers and fruits in your coffee - this is not the product for you. If you are instead looking for a gift for your mother, grandmother or someone who has not yet explored the world of specialty coffee and prefers darker classic coffees - we have it! It's a good coffee, and by using beans from previous harvests, it also has a much lower price, because we sell it 'at cost value'!

Heresy - Tanzania Itumpi Washed Filter 252 g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 14.07.2026
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Tanzania, roasted by Heresy roasting brand. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. The brew resembles the flavour of blueberries, jam, citrus, herbs, spices and flowers.Origin: TanzaniaRegion: MboziFarm: 160 smallholdersProcessing: WashedAltitude: 1600-1800 m a.s.l.Cupping score: 87 / 100ABOUT THE FARM AND THE COFFEE PRODUCERItumpi is a cooperative with quite long traditions, as its origins date back to the 1970s. It brings together 160 small producers living in the Mbozi region, less than 70 km from the border with Zambia. Recently, in 2019, the cooperative built a central washing station, thanks to which all harvested cherries are processed on-site. Naturally, this boosted the quality of the final product and made exporting outside Tanzania easier – and as a result – increased the cooperative's profit.ABOUT THE PROCESSING OF COFFEE BEANS ON THE FARMThe Bourbon variety, hand-picked, is delivered on the same day to a small washing station owned by the cooperative. After the depulping process, which separates the seed from the fruit, it is sorted by bean size and then separately fermented in a tank for 10 hours. Washed and dried on raised beds for 10 days.ROASTER'S OPINIONOne could say that high-quality lots from Tanzania are a wonderful rescue that comes outside the fresh Kenya season. Jammy, fruity, and juicy. And that is exactly the case here. We are happy to put Itumpi into the roaster for another year in a row!Store in a cool and dry place.

What we have here is the essence of Rwandan terroir – the cherries ripen on mineral-rich volcanic soils and at impressive altitudes exceeding 2000 meters above sea level. Nova Coffee, in turn, is the washing station and export company owned by Agnes and Felix Mukamushinja, who coordinate the entire enterprise. In 2024, they won first place in the prestigious Best of Rwanda competition with their coffee.ABOUT THE COFFEE BEAN PROCESSING ON THE FARMAll the fruit is harvested by the female producers by hand and with great care – years of practice and training have borne fruit (pun intended) in an extremely selective picking, resulting in perfectly ripe cherries. The lot is processed as a "classic" washed coffee. The fruit undergoes depulping, after which it goes into a tank for over 24 hours where fermentation takes place. This is followed by washing and then straight to drying.ROASTER'S OPINIONIt is no coincidence that we are hosting Bukure for another season in a row – this is a textbook example of a Rwandan coffee pampered at every stage. The essence of the washed coffee profile from this small part of the world.Store in a dry and cool place.

Whole-bean specialty coffee from Colombia and Honduras, roasted by Heresy roasting brand. Dark roast, perfect for espresso machines and moka pots. You can expect hints of caramel, jam chocolate, dried fruits and wine.Origin: Colombia, HondurasRegion: Cauca / Santa BarbaraFarm: El Tambo / Javier FernandezProcessing: Washed / Fermented HoneyAltitude: 2050 / 1600 m a.s.l.Cupping score: 86 / 100 ABOUT THE FARM AND THE COFFEE PRODUCEREl TamboThis exceptionally clean and complex lot is the result of the work of four small-scale producers from the Cauca region. Willian Hoyos, Julián Sandoval, Rubén Castillo, and Yovany Muñoz cultivate coffee on several-hectare farms in the El Tambo micro-region, located west of Popayan, the capital of the Cauca department.The following synergy of factors makes the quality of their raw material so phenomenal:the microclimate in El Tambo and the cultivation altitude reaching above 2,000 meters result in slower cherry ripening, while lower humidity facilitates the drying process: the processed coffee loses water in a predictable and controlled manner,a thoughtful and precisely planned system of pruning and thinning older, less productive parts of the coffee trees to ensure optimal air throughput and sunlight,the producers' modern knowledge of fertilization combined with a traditional practice known locally as “re-re,” which involves the selective harvesting of overripe, undeveloped, or dried fruits and leaving them on the ground by the trees: thanks to this, more pests feed on the “waste” instead of attacking healthy batches,and, of course, conscious, restrictive cherry picking at the optimal ripeness stage combined with years of experience in the fermentation and drying process.Only the local population works during the harvest, forming the core of the community of several small El Tambo villages, which has naturally evolved around the continuous, seasonal cycle of coffee cultivation for generations.Javier FernandezJavier is the son of Don Andres, a producer whose coffees we have already hosted in our brown jars. His farm is just around the corner, and the terrace of the washing station offers such an extraordinary view of the valley and Lake Yojoa that if Bill Gates had visited this place, this very landscape would be world-famous as a Windows desktop wallpaper. The Fernandez family (there is also a second son, Nahun!) is not afraid to play with processing, and thanks to bold experiments, they deliver some of the best lots in all of Santa Barbara year after year. This is an opinion, not a fact. But also a fact.ABOUT THE COFFEE BEAN PROCESSING ON THE FARMIn the current Illuminati lineup, we have a combination of washed and honey processing with extended fermentation. El Tambo is a classic washed. Javier Fernandez is a more fermented wild card.ROASTER'S OPINIONOnce again, we apply the equation here: very good + very good ≤ very good. In the base, there is deep caramel sweetness and plenty of jammy fruitiness, the dark-blue, forest kind. And as a joker, a winey-tropical honey. 21st-century synergy.An espresso shot of this is pure goodness. Illuminati offers greater complexity than a classic Brazil. At the same time, it is very sweet, slightly fruity, and goes down well solo or with milk. Balance and a pleasant, yet in no way overpowering acidity – that is our main plan for this blend!Store in a cold and dry space.

Willian Hoyos, Julián Sandoval, Rubén Castillo, and Yovany Muñoz cultivate coffee on several-hectare farms in the El Tambo micro-region, located west of Popayan, the capital of the Cauca department.The following synergy of factors makes the quality of their raw material so phenomenal:the microclimate in El Tambo and the cultivation altitude reaching above 2,000 meters result in slower cherry ripening, while lower humidity facilitates the drying process: the processed coffee loses water in a predictable and controlled manner,a thoughtful and precisely planned system of pruning and thinning older, less productive parts of the coffee trees to ensure optimal air throughput and sunlight,the producers' modern knowledge of fertilization combined with a traditional practice known locally as “re-re,” which involves the selective harvesting of overripe, undeveloped, or dried fruits and leaving them on the ground by the trees: thanks to this, more pests feed on the “waste” instead of attacking healthy batches,and, of course, conscious, restrictive cherry picking at the optimal ripeness stage combined with years of experience in the fermentation and drying process.Only the local population works during the harvest, forming the core of the community of several small El Tambo villages, which has naturally evolved around the continuous, seasonal cycle of coffee cultivation for generations.Javier FernandezJavier is the son of Don Andres, a producer whose coffees we have already hosted in our brown jars. His farm is just around the corner, and the terrace of the washing station offers such an extraordinary view of the valley and Lake Yojoa that if Bill Gates had visited this place, this very landscape would be world-famous as a Windows desktop wallpaper. The Fernandez family (there is also a second son, Nahun!) is not afraid to play with processing, and thanks to bold experiments, they deliver some of the best lots in all of Santa Barbara year after year. This is an opinion, not a fact. But also a fact.ABOUT THE COFFEE BEAN PROCESSING ON THE FARMIn the current Illuminati lineup, we have a combination of washed and honey processing with extended fermentation. El Tambo is a classic washed. Javier Fernandez is a more fermented wild card.ROASTER'S OPINIONOnce again, we apply the equation here: very good + very good ≤ very good. In the base, there is deep caramel sweetness and plenty of jammy fruitiness, the dark-blue, forest kind. And as a joker, a winey-tropical honey. 21st-century synergy.An espresso shot of this is pure goodness. Illuminati offers greater complexity than a classic Brazil. At the same time, it is very sweet, slightly fruity, and goes down well solo or with milk. Balance and a pleasant, yet in no way overpowering acidity – that is our main plan for this blend!Store in a cold and dry space.
Heresy - Antidotum Filter 1001g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 14.07.2026
Some 75% of all coffee produced in the world comes from Brazil, the vast majority being commercial grand blends from around the region. In the world of speciality coffee, we have to deal with those as well. That's why we created the Antidote, a coffee that is an antidote to the flood of santos, cerrados, and other coffees, that are far from transparent and demonstrating the producer's role in the whole process. This is for fans of the classics who do not let go of quality. For those who value true fair trade. The first classic brazil in our range!Specialty quality bean coffee, roasted at Heresy roastery by the 2020 Roasting Runner-up. Light roasted, designed for pour-over brewing methods or pour-over in a cup. A profile with a classic Brazilian flavour, with nut and chocolate notes, in the highest quality.Country: BrazilProducer: 20 members of San Coffee CooperativeFarm: San CoffeeVarietal: mundo novo, topazio, catuaiProcessing: naturalAltitude: 900 - 1200 m a.s.l.PROCESSING20 manufacturers, the same natural processing technique calibrated between them. Thanks to close cooperation and rigid standards, each lot is processed and dried in an almost identical manner.THE FARMSan Coffee is a rarity in Brazil. Most co-operatives in the country are made up of hundreds or thousands of producers, whose role is often limited to just supplying the coffee, nothing else. San Coffee is made up of only 20 producers who also own the company, with equally distributed shares of 5% each. We have been working with them since the very beginning of Heresy, presenting fruity microlots like Taquaral, Campo Alegre and Samambaia. This time it's time for the classic product of their work!ROASTER'S COMMENTIn the cup as classically as possible. Acidity practically invisible, shadow work. Chocolate and nuts in the liquid form. You know what I mean!PACKAGINGThe coffee is packed in a brown jar made of PET, 100% recyclable or reusable. In case you're thinking "oh no, plastic!", bear in mind that standard coffee packaging is also made of plastic (and a few other materials, making it often harder to recycle). We also thought about glass, but it's heavier, more expensive, breakable and, wait for it, has the same or greater (sic!) environmental impact! A plastic jar turns out to be pretty eco-friendly, just remember to put it in the right container, or find a creative way to reuse it at home.Store in a cold and dry space.

Heresy - Costa Rica Las Lajas Alma Negra Natural Filter 252 g
Manufacturer: HERESY
Roasting date: 14.07.2026
Whole-bean specialty coffee from Costa Rica, roasted by Heresy roasting brand. Light roast, perfect for filter coffee machines, drippers, Chemex, AeroPress, French Press, and other pour-over brewing methods. The brew resembles the flavour of tropical fruits, blueberries, flowers, wine and caramel.Origin: Costa RicaRegion: AlajuelaFarm: Las LajasProcessing: Alma Negra NaturalAltitude: 1500 m a.s.l.Cupping score: 88 / 100ABOUT THE FARM AND THE COFFEE PRODUCERFrancisca and Oscar are the siblings behind the Las Lajas brand. They are pioneers when it comes to juicy and fruity Costa Rican naturals. In previous years, we visited their plantation several times and together tasted lots that had only just left the drying tables. Cupping with the producers on the farm is always a unique experience.The name Las Lajas comes from the Spanish version of the Arabic word used to describe stone artifacts made by the indigenous population, which were found on the farm's territory when it was founded, around 1840! Located at the foot of the Poás Volcano, in the town of Sabanilla, in the Alajuela region of Costa Rica, the farm has been passed down from generation to generation.In 2000, Las Lajas became one of the first farms in Costa Rica to obtain official organic certification. However, the history of their organic practices dates back to 1980 – that was when Oscar’s father passed away from illnesses related to the use of pesticides. Although there were no premiums for organic coffee at that time, Oscar and Francisca knew they had to transition to organic and sustainable farming, caring for the health and future of both their family and the local ecosystem.ABOUT THE COFFEE BEAN PROCESSING ON THE FARMAlma Negra is a proprietary interpretation of natural processing developed by the Chacóns. During the first week, the hand-picked cherries lie on African raised beds and are constantly mixed for even drying. Then, they are moved to the greenhouse patio and dried in thin layers during the day, while at night they are formed back into thicker piles. These cycles are repeated until the ideal level of dryness is reached. After that, the coffee rests for at least 60 days before export to achieve perfect homogenization.ROASTER'S OPINIONEvery year, we wait for coffees from Las Lajas with flushed cheeks! This lot is, above all, about absurdly high intensities across all layers, from tropical fruits to slightly wild fermentation notes.Store in a dry and cool place.
