Tim Wendelboe Coffee

Tim Wendelboe is a roastery, espresso bar, and coffee training centre in Oslo. We have been roasting to order every week since 2007 and shipping coffee to home enthusiasts, offices, restaurants, and coffee shops all over the world.

Since the beginning, we have been based in the same small shop at Grünersgate 1 in Grünerløkka. In 2018, the roastery moved a few blocks east to Tøyengata 29c, while the espresso bar remained in its original location.

We buy green coffee directly from producers in Kenya, Ethiopia, Colombia, Honduras and El Salvador, and we visit them every year. We also publish what we pay, as transparency is at the core of what we do.

Since 2019, we have been farming coffee ourselves at Finca El Suelo in Huila, Colombia.

Finca Tamana Variedad Colombia 

A comforting and sweet coffee with flavours of caramel, chocolate and red fruits.

Traditionally Colombian farmers produced Caturra, Bourbon and sometimes Typica cultivars. Unfortunately all of these are highly susceptible to leaf rust which is the reason why Cenicafe (the Colombian coffee research institute) started developing a resistant hybrid cultivar back in the late 1960's that became Variedad Colombia. Variedad Colombia was released in the 1980's and is a crossing between Caturra and the Timor Hybrid ( A natural crossing between C. Canephora (Robusta) and C. Arabica.)

Variedad Colombia is a multiline selection that has rust resistant genes from the Timor Hybrid with good yield potential and with similar cup quality as Caturra. Today Caturra, Variedad Colombia and Castillo (the later development of Variedad Colombia) are the most commonly grown cultivars in Colombia.

Finca Tamana is a 57 hectare coffee plantation located in the mountains between El Pital and La Plata in Huila Colombia. It was acquired by Elias Roa in 2011 after being abandoned for a while and today the farm is managed by Elias and his family.
