Cup of Excellence
Premium Coffee Pods
18 Pods Per Box
The Cup of Excellence is a strict competition that selects the very best coffee produced in that country for that particular year . These winning coffees are chosen by a select group of national and international cuppers and are cupped at least five different times during the competition process.
The Cup of Excellence® competition cycle was conceived with the purpose of finding masterpiece lots of coffee from hundreds of entries. This requires a dedication to key details and an unrelenting repetition in the cupping search process that has become the unique signature of the Cup of Excellence experience.
Gallery Series, refers to those one-of-a-kind coffees with extremely special or exciting flavor qualities, that when we cup them, we recognize as extraordinary. Like other organic food products, the flavor qualities of Gallery Series coffee reflect not just a particular geography, altitude, farm or varietal–they also reflect less fixed factors like weather and terroir–which is never exactly the same anywhere in the world from year to year. Because of this, Gallery Series coffees are limited edition coffees, so make sure to enjoy them when they are available.

Best Value for Your Money
Fratello Premium Coffee Pods contain a full 9.5 grams of coffee per Pod. That's almost twice the amount you'll find in your typical store bought pods like Senseo, Folgers or Maxwell House. You can brew a full 8 oz. cup with a single Pod. Each box contains 18 pods - that's less than $0.45 per pod for coffee that sells for $5.00 a cup at specialty cafes!
Small Batch Artisan Roasting
Fratello is a specialty roaster, custom roasting coffee in small batches (30-250 pound batches), adjusting roast specifications to the type of coffee. This allows for greater control of the roasting process, resulting in fuller taste. Fratello buys only the Highest Quality Beans from across the globe and they have developed an ability and reputation for selecting and buying green coffees that, when roasted, are exceptional in flavor and character.
