Meet the women behind the coffee
We source this Ki-Saya coffee through Covoya’s Café Delas program, which works with women who own and operate coffee farms. The women receive payment directly for their coffee, along with an added premium that provides cash, equipment, or training.
The program also offers education and leadership opportunities, supporting the women’s work beyond the coffee harvest.

Love these beans! Great medium roasted flavor with a sweet/creamy finish. A friend couldn’t believe they were drinking black coffee it has such good flavor on its own. No bitterness or burnt taste here. Makes a great espresso, latte or coffee. Highly recommended, one of my favorite of Mayfly coffees. Mayfly is always my go to for whole bean coffee & love to support local.
One of my favorites. Great coffee - Ben and his crew are top notch!
The perfect coffee. I will entertain no other opinion. I serve it to anyone who is in the house, but sometimes reluctantly (it is hard to share)
Absolutely delightful coffee. Each coffee is unique, well-balanced, and roasted just right. Would recommend to any coffee lovers!
Finally had a chance to use my new coffee grinder on Mayfly Dead Drift. Loved every bit of it. The taste and of course that wonderful Mayfly smell
Great company!!!
I received my bag of Dead Drift. I choose the French Press grind because I am using my bag to make Cold Brew coffee. Great flavor and so fresh!!!
Best coffee we’ve ever used brewing cold brew.
We keep ordering this because it is our favorite at home coffee hands down
I love Dead Drift! It is amazing, smooth, bold… perfection in a cup!!!
BEST COFFEE EVER
I heard about this company during the pandemic when they were corresponding with my daughter and we loved her coffee. Now it is the favorite in our home. Also really like the owners/staff. Just simply the best
I got on with Mayfly Coffee after purchasing their Paddle medium roast off of Amazon discount distributor Woot!'s website. I was impressed with the flavor and wanted to see what other offerings this company has. Dead Drift stuck out to me as something that I thought I would enjoy and boy am I thankful that I went with my gut! It is a well roasted and smooth flavor that makes drinking black coffee an enjoyable experience! Thank you Mayfly. I look forward to enjoying more!
Love Mayfly Dead Drift!
Best coffee I’ve had.
You're the best customer we've ever had!
Love these blends
We love you!!
