High Elevation Farming
At Rojo Elephant, we pride ourselves on quality. That’s why our Arabica beans are always grown under a sun filtering canopy at high altitudes that exceed 4,500 feet. The crisp air, rich soil and shade lend to a longer maturation period that enhances the flavor complexity of the beans.
Hand Picked
We believe in doing things the right way, even if it takes a little more elbow grease. Rojo Elephant coffee is hand-picked by skilled local farmers before being washed in pure mountain spring water and naturally sun dried. After that, our beans go through a rigorous classification process, where the best beans are hand-selected by families with generations of experience.
Masterful Roasting
We roast each batch fresh the moment you place your order, so that you know you’re getting only the best of the best. By evenly heating the beans and roasting them in small batches, we create a smoother coffee that highlights the unique flavorings of our beans. We’ve spent years perfecting our process to make sure that your java is a delight to your tastebuds with every last drop.

Frequently Asked Questions
We’ve developed premium coffee roasted, ground, and packaged right here in America. Whether you prefer the bold, uncompromising flavors of a dark roast like Teddy’s Darkness to Dawn, or you lean a little moderate and want a smooth and balanced medium roast, Rojo Elephant offers a range of options for the palate of every patriot.
We’ve made sure that our coffee is cultivated at elevations soaring beyond 4,500 feet. When coffee is grown at a higher altitude, the cooler temperatures slow the development and ripening of the beans. Our coffee is more nutrient-dense and better in taste as a result. It’s the way coffee was meant to be—strong and bold.
We don’t compromise on our values—or the taste of our coffee. Shade grown means that we grow our coffee plants under a sun filtering canopy, which allows the beans to mature slower and become denser and harder. The final coffee product boasts a much better flavor than coffee beans that aren’t shade grown, delivering excellence in every sip.
All of our coffee comes from one area of one farm, also known as “single origin.” Our single origin approach means you can trust that every bean in each roast is as high-quality as the next. When you order Rojo Elephant, you’re not just ordering coffee. You’re making a statement that you know the best things in life come from a single, trustworthy source.
Each batch of Rojo Elephant Coffee is roasted fresh when you order. We’re not a fan of one-size-fits-all operations, and we make sure to reflect that in our products. In fact, our coffee is so fresh that we recommend waiting seven days off roast to brew it in order for the coffee to properly degas, which coincides perfectly with the seven days it takes to get to you. That way, you know you’re receiving the freshest coffee possible.
We let our coffee degas for a few days to ensure quality. By the time coffee arrives at your doorstep, it'll be ready.
To preserve the freshness of your coffee, store it in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposure to excessive air, moisture, heat, and light.
