The history of Fiftybeans dates back to 2013, when specialty coffee scene in Czech Republic was still in its infancy. At that time, it was very difficult to find quality among the "dark" Italian roasters, where all the coffee unfortunately tasted the same. Almost no one knew that coffee is a fruit and can offer much more than a unified bitter taste. So Fifty decided to change that. It will always be a long run, but at Fiftybeans they believe that only a patient approach can change anything. Today, their offer includes several types of coffee designed for different methods of preparation. Everyone will get their money's worth. All the coffee they have on offer is unique in a way that they want to drink every day. And they want to share these unique things with everyone.
Fiftybeans: "By choosing green coffee, we cover the whole range of flavors and aromas. We buy either from proven suppliers who respect this raw material and people associated with it, or the purchase of grain takes place directly from farmers. "Even green coffee is aging and losing its spark. We are trying to prevent this by storing it in air-conditioned warehouses as well as by innovative methods of freezing green beans. However, the hey is optimizing the purchase of coffee so that we can follow current world harvests."
