About this coffee

What the roaster tells us.

Nepal Illam Natural comes from smallholder hillside farms where coffee is often grown alongside tea, cardamom and food crops. Onyx describes this lot as naturally processed with an additional anaerobic stage. The neighboring crops tell you about the farms, not the flavor. If you’re curious about Nepal as a coffee origin, Illam is a rare and well-documented place to start.

The people behind this coffee

Meet Onyx Coffee Lab

Onyx Coffee Lab began in 2012 as a small specialty coffee roaster in Northwest Arkansas. Its own story describes a business built around questioning what good coffee can be, with an emphasis on the people who produce it and the people who brew it. The company has since grown to include cafes and wholesale partnerships, while also selling coffee directly to home drinkers online. If you're getting to know Onyx, that combination is a useful starting point: a regional roastery with a wider audience, and a stated interest in helping customers understand the coffee they're buying. You can explore that background without needing a barista's vocabulary.
