Our Story
Back in 2019, after some years of being together, Stephany Marmolejo and Darius Karremans, two coffee lovers with roots in Colombia & Costa Rica, decided to move to NL and build a home in The Hague. To find a new way of living they combined their passion for coffee & their careers, this is how Kolibri was born.
The project began with a small coffee production owned by Darius’ family that comes from the slopes of the Turrialba volcano in Costa Rica and is harvested at Nonna Anna farm (in honor of his grandmother’s name). For Darius the company is still a part time job since he is also working as an IT manager, but he believes it will be his main project in the coming years. While for Stephany it’s a full time job which allows her to continue her career as a professional in Marketing.
Our promise
Coffees to-die-for
The idea behind Kolibri is simple: celebrate the exciting cultural value of coffee and bring the experience of its consumption to our community.
Born in the Netherlands and roasted locally: we offer specialty coffee beans that have been sustainably harvested through environmentally friendly practices.
Ethically sourced
Our commitment is to ensure a healthy economic growth and social well-being of the farmers and their surrounding communities, as well as for the industry itself.
To select coffee we really take care of each process within the value chain and that is why it is very important for us to partner with farms and intermediaries (importers / exporters) who share our vision of sustainability Sand values.
All people deserve to know the story behind each cup of coffee!
Locally roasted
We know very well the importance of offering a bean of excellence in a region that has a clear demand in terms of product quality and a high level of consumption.
Our roasting process is based on the seasonality of the regions to favor the freshness of each batch and its profile is defined taking into account variables such as; origin, variety, process, altitude and others. We normally work with the most recent harvest to enhance its quality and complexity in the most flavorful way.
