Experience the finest California has to offer. The Reserve Gift Box pairs two rare coffees that showcase the breadth and character of Californian terroir with the first cup made specifically for California-grown coffee.
Inside the box:
Condor Ridge Ranch | Yeast Washed Geisha
California coffee starts with Condor Ridge Ranch. It was there, in 2002, that our visionary late co-founder Jay Ruskey planted the first commercial coffee farm in the state. In the years since, it has come to represent both the beginning and the promise of what California coffee can achieve.
This Yeast Washed Geisha is a fitting expression of that legacy, offering a classic profile of exotic florals, stone fruit, and black tea, with a luxuriously delicate body and a long, complex finish.
International roasters usually claim most of this farm’s production, so this coffee rarely sees a domestic release. We’ve set aside a small quantity for this holiday box, making it a rare chance to taste one of the finest coffees FRINJ has produced to date.
Tasting notes: Jasmine, nectarine, black tea
Whole bean | 3.5 oz
Las Pulgas Gap | Yeast Washed Laurina
The ultimate after-dinner coffee. Laurina has been prized for generations for a remarkable trait: it naturally produces about half the caffeine of standard Arabica. First discovered on Réunion Island in the Indian Ocean, it now thrives in California. This San Diego County expression is a pristine example of what makes the variety so special.
Tasting notes: Meyer lemon, black tea, caramel
Whole bean | 3.5 oz
The FRINJ Tasting Cup
Our tasting cup was created in collaboration with Ojai-based ceramic artist Mark Churchill. Each cup is hand-thrown on his wheel in a shape designed to concentrate aroma toward the nose as you sip. Because they’re made by hand, no two are exactly alike. The burgundy exterior echoes the color of a perfectly ripe coffee cherry, a visual cue that can nudge the palate toward sweetness and richness. Inside, a cream glaze lets you appreciate the coffee’s color and clarity.
Capacity: 6 oz | Handmade in Ojai, CA
