The series

NEW RELEASE

The Co‑Ferment Four

Four Colombian Castillo lots, each fermented with a fruit rather than flavoured after the fact. Mango, strawberry, coconut, passion fruit.

An independent roastery with two rooms in Abu Dhabi, one machine since 2018, and coffee that never sits long enough to go quiet.

Our story

From the farm to the cup

The story of 3 Guys starts with Sarhan's love of coffee, and with wanting to understand it where it comes from rather than only at the moment it reaches the cup. So he travelled to coffee farms in a number of countries, met the people growing it, and followed the bean's journey close up: planting, picking, processing, and on through roasting to the flavours themselves.

Every trip made him more curious. He studied coffee and roasting properly, took specialist certifications, and began roasting himself, until he could give each harvest a roast of its own.

If it is on the bar it is on the shelf, and the other way round.

The rare lots come in volumes a national retailer would not bother with.
