We roast in small batches at our warehouse in Kansas City metro and ship weekly to guarantee roast freshness. Most orders arrive in 3-5 business days, maybe a little longer if you're at the far corners of the country.

The continental 48. If you're outside the lower 48 and want Post in your kitchen, send us a note through our contact page and we'll see what we can work out!

Keep the bag sealed, somewhere cool and dark like a cabinet. Grind whole bean right before use if possible for best flavor.

Every single origin lists the country, region, farm or co-op, and process on its product page. We source through relationships we've built over years — Levi and Katie have visited many of these farms in person — and we partner with the same producers season after season when we can. Our blends draw from those same relationships. Check out the journal for more.

If a bag isn't what you hoped for, email info@postcoffeecompany.com and we'll make it right.

A delightful offering from many smallholder farmers that process coffee through the Shanta Golba Washing Station. A sweet and classic profiled Natural Ethiopian coffee.

The Shantagolba Cooperative is a coffee-producing farmers’ organization located in the Bensa District of Sidama region of southern Ethiopia. It is part of the larger Sidama Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (SCFCU), one of Ethiopia’s largest coffee unions, which represents tens of thousands of smallholder farmers. The cooperative consists of around 1,200–1,300 smallholder farmers, each typically cultivating less than one hectare of land. These farmers mainly grow heirloom Arabica coffee varieties alongside subsistence crops such as vegetables.

Beyond production, the cooperative contributes to rural development. Through SCFCU, it provides services such as training in organic and sustainable farming practices, infrastructure improvements (e.g., roads and storage facilities), and access to microcredit. It also supports social programs, including healthcare, education, and environmental initiatives, helping improve the livelihoods of farming communities. Overall, the Shantagolba Cooperative is an important example of how farmer cooperatives in Ethiopia help small-scale producers access global markets, improve coffee quality, and enhance economic and social conditions in rural areas. via Covoyacoffee.com
