Specialty

Lots are graded before they are published. Scores run from 83 to 86.5 on the lots in stock today.

Specialty refers to the cup, measured on a 100 point scale by trained cuppers. A lot scoring 80 or above, with few defects and a clean, distinct profile, is considered specialty grade.

Our origins

Hills Coffee sources washed and natural lots from Sidama and Guji in Ethiopia, the birthplace of arabica, and naturals from Minas Gerais in Brazil, the largest producing origin.

Each origin is chosen for a cup that roasters in our region ask for, then held in Dubai or Cairo so it is close when you need it.

For the best possible cup

With our knowledge of green coffee buying, every lot is reviewed by a person before it is confirmed. Moisture, density, screen size and the cup are checked against the sheet you were sent.

Green coffee is stored in controlled warehouses in Dubai and Cairo, away from heat and odour, so the coffee that reaches your roaster tastes the way it did on the cupping table.
