Looking Back Part 7 - New Brand Identity
After finding the right name, we needed our Brand Identity to perfectly translate what we and our roastery are all about. We are endurance athletes, eager to go out and explore the great outdoors. Our coffee should be the fuel for an adventure as well as a reward after a hard training session or a challenge completed. While committing to great quality, it needs to be approachable, fun and cool.

Looking Back Part 6 - What's in a Name
When we initially started out in 2010, we named our roastery "Gipfelstürmer Kaffee", which translates as "Peak Performer Coffee". The name reflected both our background in endurance sports and our love for the great outdoors and the mountains which are right in front of our doorstep here in Switzerland. Just think of brewing coffee while taking a break on a hike or trek and enjoying the views and savouring a personal achievement: that's what our coffee was about.

On Fine Robusta
For a bit more than a year, we have integrated Fine Robusta coffee into our roasting. It all started back in 2015 when I was first introduced to the concept of Fine Robusta and tasted some really clean Robusta: Even when completely cooled, there were no disturbing off-flavours and taints which I had previously associated with Robusta. The coffees were very clean and had a really big body. OK, the coffees I tried didn't have the same lively acidity and fruity attributes found in complex Arabica coffees, but they were really tasty in their own way.

Small Name Big Coffee: Burundi Kibingo
Coffee from Burundi has everything we look for in an African coffee: It has intense fruity flavors, punchy and lively acidity and a nicely textured body. Quality wise, it doesn’t have to hide from nearby Kenya but still it doesn’t have a big name. Those who explore this origin though will be rewarded with very tasty coffees!
