About Project Origin

Sasa Sestic, 2015 World Barista Champion, launched a green bean sourcing project called Project Origin three years ago with his business team ONA Coffee. This project directly works with coffee farmers in poor countries and regions to improve their production conditions and offers them purchase prices 20% higher than fair trade prices.

The original intention of this project also includes strengthening the connection between roasters and coffee farmers, and guiding farmers to cultivate high-quality coffee beans. So far, Sasa has established relationships with coffee growers from eight countries, including Brazil, Panama, India, Ethiopia, El Salvador, and Costa Rica.

Bourbon Coffee

Bourbon coffee was initially cultivated on Réunion Island, which was also called Île Bourbon before 1789. Simply put, Bourbon is a coffee variety belonging to a branch of the Arabica species. It generally produces red fruits, called Red Bourbon. In addition, there are Yellow Bourbon and Orange Bourbon. Yellow Bourbon has relatively lower yields but better quality.

Typica Coffee

Typica (also known as 铁皮卡, 帝比卡, 蒂皮卡) is a coffee bean variety and one of the oldest among many Arabica species. Typica is also called old variety small-grained coffee. It has low yields and is difficult to cultivate, so its price is much higher than ordinary small-grained coffee. Typica coffee originates from southeastern Ethiopia and Sudan and is the most widely cultivated coffee variety in the Western Hemisphere.
