Kapsokisio Whole Bean Coffee

Tim Wendelboe is one of the most influential figures in modern specialty coffee — a Norwegian barista champion, roaster, and coffee farmer whose Oslo roastery has been setting the standard for Scandinavian coffee culture since 2007. His approach is defined by an obsessive focus on quality at origin, minimal roasting intervention, and a commitment to sourcing relationships that are as direct and transparent as possible. If you want to understand what specialty coffee can taste like at its finest, Tim Wendelboe is one of the places you start.

Kapsokisio is a washing station in the Rift Valley of Kenya — a region whose volcanic soils, high altitude, and cool temperatures produce some of the most structured, complex, and distinctive coffees in the world. Kenyan coffee is famous for its precision: the high-grown arabica varieties grown here develop a natural acidity and aromatic clarity that few other origins can match, with flavour profiles that range from blackcurrant and tomato to stone fruit and florals depending on variety, processing, and roast. In Tim Wendelboe’s hands — lightly roasted to preserve every nuance the origin has to offer — the Kapsokisio is a coffee of real brilliance: vivid, structured, and deeply expressive of its place. Brew it as a filter for maximum clarity.
