A microlot is a very small, carefully managed batch of coffee, harvested from a specific variety, elevation, or plot. Farmers often reserve microlots for their highest quality lots, with special care during processing.

Q: How is microlot coffee different from single-origin coffee?

Single-origin coffee comes from one country or region, but microlot coffee goes further, tied to a specific plot, farmer, or variety. All microlots are single origin, but not all single-origin coffees are microlots.

Q: Why choose microlot coffee over standard blends?

Microlot coffee offers a unique expression of a specific place, crop, and moment. It reflects small-scale farming, selective harvesting, and precise processing — perfect for those who value traceability and variety.

Q: How should I brew microlot coffee?

Microlot coffees are best brewed using pour-over, French press, or AeroPress methods. Use fresh ground beans and clean, filtered water to bring out their unique flavour notes.

FAQs About Microlot Coffee

What is microlot coffee?

Microlot coffee comes from a specific, small section of a farm or estate, sometimes as little as a few rows of plants. These coffees are produced in limited quantities and often showcase unique flavour profiles based on growing conditions, altitude, and processing methods.

They’re traceable, carefully selected, and ideal for anyone who enjoys exploring standout coffees with a clear sense of place.

What is a microlot?

A microlot is a very small, carefully managed batch of coffee. It may be harvested from a single variety of coffee tree, a specific elevation, or a dedicated plot.

Farmers often reserve microlots for their highest quality lots, separating them from the main harvest for special care and attention during processing.

How is microlot coffee different from single-origin coffee?

Single-origin coffee comes from one country or region, but a microlot goes a step further. It’s tied to a specific plot of land, sometimes even a single farmer or variety, and reflects highly localised conditions. While all microlots are single origin, not all single-origin coffees qualify as microlots.

Why choose microlot coffee over standard blends?

Microlot coffee offers something you won’t find in standard blends: a unique expression of a particular place, crop, and moment in time.

You’re tasting the result of small-scale farming, selective harvesting, and dedicated processing. For coffee lovers who enjoy variety, depth, and traceability, microlots are a chance to discover something truly individual.

How should I brew microlot coffee?

Microlot coffees shine when brewed with care. Try them in a pour-over, French press, or AeroPress to bring out their distinctive flavour notes. Use freshly ground beans and clean, filtered water for the best results.
