The sweet aroma of honey and caramel fills the air. A well-balanced hint of luscious acidity slowly morphs into the characteristic spiciness of fresh herbs, which tickles the palate gently. The eye is drawn to the unusually large beans: those are lovingly referred to as “elephant coffee beans” by the locals…
Flying high over the Nicaraguan region of Matagalpa, one cannot help but notice the wide expanse of the coffee plantations owned by the Mierish family. Not only do these people take special care of every coffee cherry and coffee plant that springs up on their land, but they also nurture the environment that surrounds it. Trees are protected: in addition to gifting some cooling shade to the coffee plants, and sheltering them from harsh winds, they provide home for the local fauna. Water used for processing coffee beans with the help of the washed method is afterwards cleaned thoroughly, and reused. As a thank-you for such love and care, nature rewards the farmers with coffee of a truly extraordinary flavour—and now you can give it a try too.

What is “Parallel Specialty”?
“Parallel Specialty” is a deeper exploration of the Coffee Belt—the equatorial region where the world’s finest coffees grow. While the original Parallel line celebrated regional diversity through curated blends dedicated to different continents, the “Specialty” edition zooms in on single-origin coffees that capture the essence of one place, one terroir, one moment in time.
Each coffee is a reflection of its native habitat—be it the misty highlands of Ethiopia, sunlit valleys of Colombia, or remote farms in Sumatra. Selected for exceptional quality and unique flavour, these coffees offer an unparalleled taste experience.
The name “Parallel” still speaks of geography, but now also stands for precision, traceability, and purity. Let “Parallel Specialty” take you on a journey—one cup, one story, one unforgettable taste at a time.
The coffees from the "Parallel Specialty" line are roasted in a way that makes them suited for all brewing methods, including bean-to-cup coffee machines.
The "Parallel" line of coffees is dedicated to specialty coffee blends representing the flavour palettes of three different continents—Africa, Asia, and America.
The "Parallel Specialty" line boasts classic specialty coffees, and invites you to discover the world's best-known coffee-growing regions, as well as their unique flavour profiles.
We roast this coffee in one of Europe's best-rated roasteries.
The "Caprisette" line of coffees includes our bestselling coffee blends, all created for a delicious daily cuppa. They're particularly well-balanced, suited great for espressos, and perfect for combining with milk, syrups, and other ingredients.
The "Parallel Specialty" line boasts a range of specialty coffees marked by premium quality and particularly rich flavours. Because of how exceptional these coffees are, it's recommended to enjoy them on their own, with no milk or other ingredients added.
Specialty coffee beans are some of the world's finest. Who decides that? It's certified coffee tasters, who evaluate the quality (origin, green bean appearance, aromas, flavours, etc.) of these coffees, and score them based on a scale created by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Only coffees that score over 80 points out of the possible 100 are awarded the specialty title.
