Roasted locally in Utrecht.

More layered than you'd expect. The natural process — drying the bean inside the fruit — lets the cherry sugars absorb in, which is why it tastes the way it does. An Indonesian variety, grown in El Salvador's El Trifinio mountains. Floral up front, rich in the middle, sweet to the end.

Get the most out of your coffee

The Java from El Conacaste is probably the most approachable coffee in our range. It’s roasted for espresso, but it adapts easily to different machines and brewing styles. In espresso machines and automatics, it offers consistency and stability exactly what you want for daily use. Grinding fresh and avoiding extreme extraction settings usually gives the best result.

In a Moka pot, this coffee feels right at home. Gentle heat and a medium-fine grind bring out a comforting, rounded cup. And just like the Pacamara, it can also be brewed as filter coffee. The result is softer and more mellow, but still very enjoyable, especially if you prefer a less sharp cup.

250+ Acres Reforested Since 1997

Back in 1997, El Conacaste planted over 250 acres of cypress and pine forest. Nearly three decades later, that forest protects the soil, cleans the air, and gives a home to all kinds of wildlife. It’s a living thing that grows right alongside the coffee.

Coffee That Shares Space With Coatis

The farm’s got wild coatis: curious little guys who love ripe coffee cherries. Instead of chasing them off, the farmers built fences around the coffee and leave out maize just outside. The coatis still visit, the coffee stays safe, and everyone wins.

A really good quality coffee with a strong body and nice finish. Also bought the Pacamara Castelgazzo and the Kenya Castelgazzo, so I'm looking forward to try those

Ik hou heel erg van sterke koffie en deze boon is niet alleen lekker sterk, maar heeft ook een ronde en volle smaak. Heerlijk

I think the coffee is decent, though I have to admit that I am not much of a coffee person. My roommate, on the other hand, who is an annoying coffee snob, is now demanding that I buy him more of this for his birthday.

Lekkere, milde koffie. Zachte afdronk. Mooi dun crema laagje.

Frequently asked questions

Where do your coffee beans come from? And how do you source them?

Every Camino bean carries a journey that starts with real farmers who've been perfecting their craft for generations. We work directly with growers across carefully selected regions, building relationships that celebrate their stories and ensure fair compensation. Our selection rotates seasonally because we follow harvest cycles, meaning you're always getting vibrant, high-quality coffee from each origin. Check the product pages to meet the faces behind your cup and see exactly where each coffee comes from.

Why does specialty coffee cost more than supermarket brands?

Great question! Behind every bag of Camino is a story of care, craft, and community. We pay farmers fairly for their exceptional work, and only source beans that meet specialty coffee standards (think: top 5% of global production). Unlike mass-market coffee that's pulled from massive commodity piles where origins and quality get lost, every Camino bean is traceable to specific farms and farmers who've put their heart into the harvest. You're not just paying for coffee, you're investing in ethical sourcing, farmer livelihoods, and a cup that's been raised, not just grown. The difference? You'll taste it in every sip, and you'll feel it knowing your coffee supports real people and real communities.

What if I don’t love it? Can I return or exchange?

Absolutely! We’re confident you’ll love your Camino coffee, but if something’s not quite right, we’ve got you covered. Just reach out to us within 30 days, and we’ll work with you to resolve the situation, whether that’s finding a different coffee that better suits your taste or another solution that works for you. We’re here to make sure every cup is a story worth sharing, and sometimes that means finding the right match.

How long does shipping take, and how much does it cost?

Orders are usually delivered within 1–3 business days within the Netherlands. Shipping is €4,95 and we offer free shipping on all orders over €30. Once your package ships, you'll receive a tracking link to follow its delivery.

Why do your coffee selections change?

Because coffee is seasonal, just like the best produce at a farmers' market! Coffee harvest cycles vary by region, so when beans are at their peak quality and most flavourful, that's when we bring them to you. It means you're always tasting coffee at its best, and it keeps our lineup exciting and full of new stories to discover. Think of it as a coffee adventure; each season brings new origins, new flavours, and new farmers to celebrate. You'll never get bored, and your taste buds will thank you

I’m not a coffee expert, will I be able to brew great coffee at home?

You absolutely will! Our coffee is designed to taste amazing no matter what you're brewing with. Whether it's a fully automatic machine like a Jura, a traditional piston espresso machine, or anything in between. Our beans bring out balanced, vibrant flavours that shine through in any setup, so you don't need to be a barista to get café-quality results at home. Just use fresh beans, follow your machine's guidelines, and you're good to go. Great coffee shouldn't be complicated!
