Love Letters Charming Coffees is a boutique specialty coffee project dedicated to sourcing and sharing exceptionally rare, limited-production coffees from some of the world's most respected producers. Rather than maintaining a permanent lineup, the company focuses on carefully curated releases that celebrate seasonality, origin, and the individuality of each harvest, offering coffee drinkers access to distinctive lots that are often available only in small quantities. The company's sourcing philosophy centers on direct relationships with origin partners and producers, working closely with organizations such as Long Miles Coffee and acclaimed coffee farmers across Colombia, Peru, and other producing countries. By prioritizing traceability and transparency, Love Letters highlights not only exceptional coffees but also the people, families, and communities responsible for producing them. Its selection emphasizes experimental processing methods, rare varietals, and highly expressive microlots. Coffees such as Milton Monroy's Gesha, Oswaldo Ore's SL9 from Peru, and Elias and Shady Bayter's Sidra Honey showcase the project's commitment to presenting coffees with distinctive terroir, innovative processing, and complex sensory profiles. Each release is chosen to tell the story of a particular producer, harvest, and origin rather than conforming to a fixed house style. Operating as a small-scale, release-driven roastery, Love Letters Charming Coffees has built its reputation around thoughtfully selected coffees that often sell out quickly due to their rarity. By focusing on craftsmanship, traceability, and producer recognition, the project offers coffee enthusiasts an opportunity to experience some of the most distinctive and limited coffees available while fostering a deeper connection to the people and places behind every cup.
