Quality Worth Grading – And Cupping in Amsterdam

Updated: Apr 6

At Aromatic Horizons, we take great pride in the quality of our coffee, and we’re always looking for ways to ensure that each batch is the best it can be. That’s why we’re thrilled to be a part of the coffee grading and cupping process in Amsterdam, where our beans meet the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.



Grading Coffee – A Precision Process

Coffee grading is an essential part of our commitment to quality. In Amsterdam, our beans undergo a rigorous evaluation process, where they are tested for factors such as aroma, flavor, body, and acidity. Only the finest coffees, like those from Burundi, make it through this careful process, ensuring that every cup we offer is exceptional. This process helps us ensure consistency, and every batch meets the exacting standards that our customers expect.

Coffee grading also involves a careful classification system, which helps identify the unique traits of each batch of beans. This attention to detail allows us to celebrate the nuances of flavor that make each coffee special, whether it’s the bright acidity of a highland Arabica or the smooth, rich notes of a dark roast.


Cupping – A Tasting Experience

Cupping is the final step in our journey to bring you the best coffee possible. At cupping sessions in Amsterdam, our team and expert tasters assess the full range of flavors and aromas in each batch. This process not only ensures that every bean is up to standard but also allows us to experience the unique characteristics that each origin brings. From bright, fruity notes to rich, deep flavors, cupping is where the magic of coffee truly comes to life.

Our cupping process also plays a vital role in helping us select blends and ensure that the final cup will deliver the perfect balance of flavors. We work closely with experts to refine our blends, experimenting with different roasting techniques to highlight the best characteristics of each bean.


Commitment to Excellence

We are passionate about delivering coffee that meets the highest standards, and grading and cupping are integral to maintaining that excellence. By collaborating with experts in Amsterdam, we ensure that every batch of Aromatic Horizons coffee delivers the rich, complex flavors our customers expect. Our commitment to excellence drives us to continuously improve our process and provide you with a coffee experience that is unmatched.


From the Farm to Your Cup

From the moment our beans are harvested in the highlands of West Africa to their final grading and cupping in Amsterdam, we’re committed to excellence at every step. By working directly with farmers, investing in quality control processes like grading and cupping, and ensuring that each batch meets our high standards, we’re able to bring you coffee that is not only sustainable but also of the highest caliber.

A Promise of Freshness and Flavor

Our commitment doesn’t end at the cupping table. Each batch is roasted to order, ensuring that you receive the freshest coffee possible. We believe that freshness plays a crucial role in preserving the rich and dynamic flavors of the beans, which is why we emphasize small-batch roasting and direct shipping to our customers. From our hands to yours, every cup is a testament to the hard work and craftsmanship that goes into creating truly exceptional coffee.


Building Relationships, Not Just Sales

At Aromatic Horizons, we believe in the importance of building long-lasting relationships with both our customers and the farmers we work with. Coffee is not just a product — it’s a connection between people, cultures, and communities. Our goal is to foster these relationships at every step of the coffee’s journey, ensuring that everyone involved — from the farmers to the barista — has a part in making each cup special.
