Arrival Verification
We adhere to strict SCA protocols for physical evaluation, meticulously assessing bean size, density, and defect counts to ensure only specialty grades enter our trade channel.
Our expert cuppers perform thorough sensory analysis at the source, scoring complexity, clarity, and sweetness to guarantee that each lot meets our exacting flavor standards.
Total transparency is our baseline. Every batch is documented from farm to export, providing roasters with detailed origin data and producer narratives for complete traceability.
Upon arrival in Aarburg, coffees undergo a final verification against pre-shipment samples, confirming that Swiss precision is maintained from origin to destination.
