We can tell you a lot about each coffee, who grows it, how much the producer earns from it. Which flavors come from the terroir, from the variety and which from the fermentation. We reinterpret coffee – with the way we trade, roast, prepare and serve it.

ABOUT US

WE LOVE COFFEE!

Hola & Hoi, we are Cristian & Debora. We would like to bring you closer to the aromatic world of specialty coffee and tell you what really matters when it comes to coffee consumption.

Thanks to Colombia, we both discovered our love for coffee. Latin America is our second home, so we started looking for the best coffee beans there in 2016. In the meantime we have established good relationships with fantastic farmers and better and better coffees are ending up in our roastery.

Debora is a graphic designer and has a good nose. She connects with Ojo de Café good design with enjoyment. Cristian comes from international sales, studied political science and economics. He realized what an impact coffee has on the lives of millions of coffee producers. And that we can change the world with every cup of coffee.

🇵🇦A new surprise has landed at Ojo de Café! @flyingpumascoffee

Just three weeks ago, we were in Panama — surrounded by jungle, mountains, and wild pumas 🐆🌿 — and from there, we’ve brought back a true gem: Flying Pumas Natural Geisha – 90 points of pure elegance in a cup.

This farm, nestled in a protected reserve in Volcan, is part of the Equation group and La Palma & El Tucán, with whom we’ve been working for years in Colombia 🇨🇴. Adding their Panamanian project felt like the perfect next step — not just for the quality, but for their deep commitment to biodiversity, sustainability, and organic practices.

🌱 They protect the forest, nurture the wildlife, and cultivate coffee in complete harmony with nature.

Where to taste it?

You’ll be able to enjoy this exclusive Geisha at our stand during all 3 days of World of Coffee — and also during the cupping session with the producers on Wednesday at The Barista Lab @thebaristalab_gva Only 15 pcs available!!! More information very soon!

If you’re a true specialty coffee lover, this is one you don’t want to miss.

Available very soon in limited quantities (15 pcs)

Celebrating excellence at origin @graciano.cruz

We want to give a heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Graciano Cruz and his entire team at Finca Los Lajones (Boquete, Panama) for winning 6th place in Geisha Natural and 7th place in Geisha Washed at Best of Panama 2025. 🙌🇵🇦🌺

Meeting Graciano was an incredible surprise — we spent three unforgettable days cupping together, learning, sharing stories, and selecting a very special coffee… and we found it. 😍
We’re proud to announce that we’ll be showcasing a Geisha Washed from Los Lajones at the World of Coffee in Geneva this month.
But that’s not all…
🎙️ We have not just one, but two surprises! Graciano will be the guest of our very first origin podcast episode about Panama, launching at the end of June. His story is inspiring — from his warmth and hospitality to the way he runs his farm with a clear vision: every coffee must be good enough to make it into Best of Panama.

Thank you, Graciano, for reminding us that behind every exceptional cup is passion, purpose, and people who believe coffee can touch the soul.

Congratulations to Hacienda La Esmeralda!

This week marks a historic moment in the coffee world: @haciendalaesmeralda earned the triple crown at the Best of Panama 2025, taking 1st place in Varietals, Geisha Natural, and Geisha Washed. 🇵🇦

And they broke records!
97.0 points for the Geisha Natural
98.0 points for the Geisha Washed
💯 With five jurors awarding the Washed a perfect 100/100!

Just a few weeks ago, we had the privilege of visiting Hacienda La Esmeralda and cupping 24 stunning lots. From that experience, we selected the top Geisha Natural and Geisha Washed, which you’ll be able to taste at our stand during the World of Coffee (WOC).

Even more exciting — Raquel will also be at our stand, so come meet her and help us celebrate this incredible moment for specialty coffee!

And here’s a little surprise: at the end of June, we’re launching the first episode of our origin travel podcast series, with 4 episodes focused on Panama… and one of them features Raquel and Hacienda La Esmeralda!

Mexico Cafeólogo Marsellesa @cafeologo

A balanced and clean cup with a delicate and bright sweetness and a tea-like body.

Our partner Jesus Salazar, Cafeólogo, developed a coffee cultivation project in Chiapas in 2010 in which the Mayan communities are involved. He works directly with 140 small farmers who grow high-quality coffee in the shade of the Mexican primary forest. Production is anything but intensive, with each farmer producing around 20 bags per year. Jesus, the Q-Processor, accompanies them in the technical realisation of the process to produce high-quality nano-batches, the best we have tasted in Mexico for a long time!“The Benefecio Comunitario Sibactel is located in the Tenejapa region. The Mayan people living there belong to the Tseltal community, which is very shy. Today, 70 farmers are partners of Cafeólogo. Since the 2020 harvest, coffee in cherries has been bought at the same price as parchment for 2 reasons:1. strong promotion of selective harvesting. 2. better remuneration for farmers.

Tomorrow is the first Tuesday of the month — roast day for our B2B clients in Switzerland and across Europe.
Starting in June, we’re scaling up: roasting on Loring Kestrel 35 every first and third Tuesday of the month.
More capacity, same quality. Always specialty coffee, sourced at origin direct, fair and transparent.

Today we celebrate 2 years of our showroom! But in fact, Debora has a history of nearly 11 in this beautiful space.

She started a concept store with coffee from Swiss specialty roasters and hand made designers products and deli in 2014 with 3 friends. Plus it was my studio for graphic design. Over the years I sheared the space with many partners. In 2018 we founded Ojo de Café and later started roasting with our 2,2 kg roaster in this room. In 2023 we decided to make it to the Ojo de Café Showroom to have a place to share the whole range of our espressi and filter coffees and present them from the producer all the way to the cup to give our values and an unique experience to our customers.

When I look back on the 11 years I see so many meaningful connections, love for the good things and endless work we put into this place. And in the 2 years of Showroom we look back on many events, cuppings, tasty coffees we developed over time. And how grateful I am for every person I got to meet on this way and in this space I still love and care for until today.

A special thank goes to the people who were and some still are part of this journey: Salomé, Jürg, Nina, Rahel, Maria, Susanne, Susanne, Iona, Phil, Eli, Andrina, Sandra, Julianna, Rocio, Ivan, Yanic and Cristian.

We will celebrate this with glasses and cups soon!

The Science and Art of Roasting at Ojo de Café

At Ojo de Café, we’re lucky to roast with two of the best machines in the world: Loring @loringroasters and Stronghold @stronghold_roasters. Each plays a key role in our process:

Loring: Our favorite for all profiles, both espresso and filter. Thanks to its hot air roasting system, we achieve consistency in large volumes without compromising quality. We roast up to 28 kg batches, ensuring a well-balanced and flavorful coffee. It’s also our go-to for subscription microlots (9 kg batch)

Stronghold: Cutting-edge technology with artificial intelligence, ensuring 100% repeatability. With small 500 g batches, it’s our tool for experimenting, fine-tuning profiles, and finding the best roast ing up. This is where our most exclusive nano lots and filter coffees come to life.

We love Stronghold’s precision, but Loring’s versatility and consistency make it our top choice. Together, they allow us to bring you a truly unique coffee experience.

Every year, we carefully select their macro, micro, and competition lots, but this particular coffee is something rare. Only a few kilos exist in the world, and having some set aside for us is an absolute honor and soon is coming the new harvest, at less the Geisha and the Micro and macro more October.

✨ THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT! ✨

Thanks to all of you, we’ve doubled our production in just a few months. This growth motivates us to keep improving and evolving.

We’re now roasting our blends in 28 kg batches and our single-origin espressos and filters in 9 kg batches on the Loring S35 Kerstrel. This allows us to achieve clearer, more balanced profiles while being more efficient and sustainable. We are so happy to roast maybe in the best roast machine of the market.

Adapting our profiles to this machine hasn’t been easy, and with every roast, we keep learning. Since December, we’ve been achieving excellent results with our microlots.

The Stronghold will remain dedicated exclusively to competition coffees.

A huge thank you to @adrianoscoffee and their amazing team—this wouldn’t have been possible without you. Thank you for your constant support and good energy and the machine.

Saludos from beloved @fincalasenda preparing our latest subscription coffee Pache Natural Champagne yeast fermentation! An amazing coffee we are buying for the third year in a row - because we love it so much! Get it now as filter or espresso ♥️🍓🫐🍋🍊🍾🥂🩷

We’ll be on a break until January 9th, but we’re already planning ahead to kick off the year strong.

Production resumes on January 14th with the 35 kg Loring roaster. We’re transitioning most of our roasts to the Loring, which allows us to be at least 25% more cost-effective compared to the Stronghold. The Loring also delivers cleaner and brighter roasts, elevating our quality even further.

That said, the Stronghold remains an excellent option for nano lots competition and small quantities, helping us maintain freshness and excellence in these specialty batches.

Thank you for your support, and happy New Year!

This Tuesday, we carried out a major production of our Blends and subscription batches on the Loring with 35 kg of pure flavor. ☕✨

The rest of our filter coffees, microlots, and competition roasts are done daily on the @stronghold_roasters Stronghold to ensure maximum freshness for every order. 🌱🔥

When it comes to filters, we’re very happy with the results on the Loring, but for single-origin espressos, we’re still calibrating to find the best success with it. We haven’t fully adapted to espresso profiles yet, so a little patience 😉.

These two market-leading machines allow us to achieve impeccable consistency in every batch and ensure a balanced, clear development in each roast. 🔥

This is how we make sure every cup is a unique, fresh experience. Thank you for joining us on this journey! 🙌

🌟 From Our Visit to La Palma and El Tucán 🌟 @lapalmayeltucan @equationcoffee

Two weeks ago, we had the privilege of visiting La Palma and El Tucán, a place filled with passion and dedication to crafting high-quality coffee. Having collaborated with them a couple of years ago on their Blend line, this time we immersed ourselves in their Ecquation project, selecting a regional washed coffee and exploring their exceptional Micro Lots and Nano Lots.

For us, visiting origin is essential—it allows us to connect deeply with the work, expertise, and care that go into every bean. Experiencing their sustainable practices and innovative approaches firsthand was truly inspiring.

Located in Zipacón, Colombia, La Palma y El Tucán is a beacon of sustainable coffee production, working closely with over 100 farming families through their Mejores Vecinos program. They champion fair trade, agroecological practices, and ecosystem regeneration, setting a standard for regenerative agriculture while offering unforgettable experiences that bring coffee’s journey from seed to cup to life.

Here are some moments from this incredible visit—we hope they reflect the passion, hard work, and dedication that make every cup of coffee so special.

Thank you, La Palma and El Tucán, for sharing your world with us. 🌱☕

The Rise in Coffee Prices: How It Affects Commercial Coffee. Is it good or bad?

The price of Arabica coffee has risen significantly, reaching $2.58 per pound, primarily impacting commercial coffee. Normally you find in a supermarket between 10-20 CHF per kg. The main reasons are:

• Adverse Weather in Brazil: Droughts and extreme heat have reduced production.
• Low Reserves in Europe: With stocks at critical levels, price pressure increases.
• High Global Demand: More consumption in emerging markets and steady demand in developed countries.

Commercial coffee, which relies on large volumes and operates on tight margins, cannot absorb this increase without passing it on to consumers. Additionally, commercial coffee is more price-sensitive, as consumers often prioritize affordability over quality.

At Ojo de Café, however, our philosophy has always been to prioritize quality and sustainability. Even in 2018, when the international market price for coffee was below $1 per pound, the minimum price we paid was $7 per kilogram ($3,18 per pound, as today 23,6% more than commercial price and in 2018 was 218% more than comercial price)

This ensures fair income for producers and promotes sustainable practices.

While commercial coffee faces challenges due to market volatility, specialty coffee, with direct trade practices and fair relationships with farmers, remains more stable. Now is a great time to reflect on the value of each cup of coffee and support ethical supply chains that prioritize quality and the well-being of coffee producers.

We believe that for origins where prices have always been tight to benefit large corporations, the increase is not necessarily bad. It brings the price closer to a fair level where producers could live sustainably.
