Why It's Different

Every decision has a purpose.

  • Natural Process leaves the coffee cherry around the bean during drying, creating deeper fruit character and natural sweetness.
  • Air Roasting protects the bean's origin instead of covering it with heavy roast flavors.
  • Whole Bean preserves freshness until you're ready to brew.
  • Cafe Kreyol Direct Trade pays up to 300% above Fair Trade minimums directly to smallholder farmers, no certification needed when you already pay more than it requires.

This is coffee built to showcase origin, not roast.

What You'll Taste

  • Dark Fruit
  • Fig
  • Creamy Body
  • Subtle Floral Finish

Unlike many Ethiopian coffees, NR7952 isn't aggressively citrus-forward. It's richer, deeper, and more layered. The fruit develops slowly, the body stays creamy, and the fls that become more noticeable as the cupcools.

First time with a natural process? Hit reply after you order and we'll help you dial in your grind and brew.

Why We Named It NR7952

NR7952 was the registration number of Amelia Earhart's Lockheed Vega 5B, the airplane she affectionately called the Little Red Bus.

In 1932 she flew it alone across the Atlantic,accomplish the feat. Three months later she flew it nonstop coast to coast across the United States, the first woman to do that too.

She wasn't legendary because of one flight. She became legendary because she kept climbing when the world told her the altitude wasn't hers to have.

This coffee carries the airplane's name becausbered.
