This coffee features tasting notes of stone fruit, Meyer lemon, and brown sugar. It is produced from Ethiopian landraces grown at 1800–1960 meters altitude in Bensa, Sidama, Ethiopia. The coffee is processed naturally, with cherries floated, density-sorted, hand-sorted on drying tables, and dried under hot Ethiopian sun before dry-hulling and export milling.

Dune Coffee Roasters has been stewarding coffee with honesty and integrity since 2009, recognizing that every bag of roasted coffee represents countless hours of human dedication and hard work. Founded in Santa Barbara by Julia and Todd, the company began as a humble operation on the corner of State Street and Figueroa using an espresso machine loaned by friends at Verve Coffee. Central to Dune's philosophy is their "Somos Socios" (We Are Partners) approach, emphasizing sustainable partnerships across the global coffee supply chain. The company commits to working exclusively with partners invested in coffee's long-term success, ensuring producers receive fair and sustainable prices. These enduring relationships enable Dune to serve exceptional coffees consistently year after year while allowing producing partners to depend on reliable support for improvements and risk-taking. Dune views relationships with customers, coworkers, and producing partners as equally important, fostering a community where collective success is the goal. Through coffee, the company creates positive impact both globally and within their Santa Barbara hometown, believing specialty coffee should be accessible, approachable, and enjoyable for everyone. The company's growth reflects their commitment to community and quality. After beginning roasting their own coffee in 2012 with a full-scale roastery alongside their second Anacapa Street location, Dune expanded to Goleta in 2015 and opened their fourth retail location on Calle Real in 2022, despite pandemic-related delays. Throughout this expansion, Dune maintains their foundational principles of quality coffee, community connection, and sustainable partnerships that honor the entire supply chain's hard work.
