Bard Coffee

Hello friends! We will be reducing our hours tomorrow (Saturday) in prep of the storm! Thank you for understanding, and stay safe!

Did you know we’re in ’s Beet Restaurants? Thank you so much for your love, Portland!

We are hiring for part-time positions! Please send your resume to [email protected] if you’re interested!

Despite the snow and cold, we are OPEN! Come take a break from shoveling and warm up ☃️

This concludes our latest and greatest trip visiting our partners at Asociación Civil Guaya'b in Jacaltenango, Guatemala. It was extremely meaningful getting to learn more about one another - with new and old members from each of our teams!

Some highlights were visiting with long-time partners and their families, getting to meet with members of the current board of directors at Guaya’b, as well as exploring the terrain of the gorgeous local area.

The last time we visited was right before COVID, so this trip gave us fresh insight into changes that have taken place at Guaya’b since then. Notably, quality standards have only gotten better, as their team works to cup every lot that comes into their processing facility, giving it a score and collaborating with farmers to improve the caliber of coffee they produce. Agronomists at Guaya’b likewise continue to support producers by making plans to acquire new trees to reforest on their farms, and educating them on how to make their own nurseries. The board of directors works to strategically allocate funds and strengthen the social standing of all its members.

We are extremely proud of our relationship with Guaya’b and direct partners of this region, such as Antonio, Feliciano, Edwin, and Ignacio. We would also like to specially thank Hermes, Luis, and Lucas of Guaya’b for taking careful time to coordinate this visit, ensuring it would be nothing short of spectacular. Guaya’b comes from the Mayan language Popti’ and means “mutual support” - our relationships in Guatemala define that.

The perfect companion ☕️🌹❤️ Happy Valentine’s Day! Love, Bard

Introducing our Ethiopia Shoye! This washed coffee offers a light, clean cup that is perfect to snuggle up with. Tasting notes are Apricot, Honeysuckle, Silky, Black Tea, Lemon Curd Available now online and in the shop!

Winter drinks are here!

First, we have the Cascara Wassail created by Dustin! This is a play on the apple wassail, which is a tradition of English orchards dating back to the 1500s. Wassailers would pour cider over tree roots to bless their orchards with good harvests. Our spin incorporates Honduran Gesha cascara, cranberry juice, local Maine cider, and key mulling spices.

Second is the Winter Spice Latte made by Em! It's reminiscent of gingerbread, consisting of vanilla, brown sugar, and toasted spices. This drink is a sweet but complex treat that compliments espresso and milk beautifully.

Both drinks will keep you cozy this winter, and are available now!

We will be closed tomorrow for Thanksgiving! We wish you all a happy Thanksgiving, and will see you Friday where we’ll be back with regular hours!

Introducing our latest coffee, the Colombia Alto Corozal! This is an anaerobic natural coffee, making for a special cup that we believe pairs well with this colder weather. Tasting notes are: cranberry, chocolate, orange, wine-like, rose hip, and lime. Available in store and online now!
