KALVE's dedication to Felicita Pauļuka and past exhibition at the Latvian National Museum of Art, "IN THE NAME OF DESIRE", where the diversity of themes related to sexuality and sensuality in the history and present of Baltic visual arts is highlighted.
With this dedication, KALVE wishes to celebrate human diversity, unique inner and outer beauty, and the individual life stories of each of us!
It is important for us to build and be part of an inclusive society that is free from stereotypes and prejudices and is based on mutual respect, openness, and empathy.
Felicita Pauļuka (1925–2014) established the tradition of Latvian pastel painting in the second half of the 20th century and is known as one of the most outstanding portrait and nude painters in Latvian art. The artist herself emphasizes that there are no significant differences between a portrait and a nude in her painting, as the nude is an extension of the portrait. In Felicita's words: "The human body expresses not only the exterior but also the deeper essence, just like the face. The hands and feet also have their own life story. Therefore, for me, the nude is an extended portrait, involving the entire body and expressing the essence of a person."

KALVE Coffee continues to celebrate the achievements of legendary masters of Latvian visual art, this time dedicating its most relevant Toffee espresso blend to the pioneer of Latvian modernism, Jāzeps Grosvalds.
Jāzeps Grosvalds, known as Joe among his family and friends, is one of the most prominent figures in Latvian art - not only classical modernism pioneer , but also the originator of several nationally important topics that formed the basis for the modern art of the newly independent country of Latvia.
In August 1913, Joe and his brother Olgert went on a trip to Spain, where they visited several cities including Barcelona, Madrid, Toledo, Cordoba, Seville and Granada. In the city of Seville, the artist was in a constantly excited mood and he felt like he was in a real oriental fairy tale. He was particularly fascinated by the gardens of the Alcázar Palace: “Everywhere flowers – rose and almond blossoms and soft, perfumed air; decoration for the Arabian Nights,” Joe writes in his diary. The teeth of the medieval towers behind the mimosas curtain or rose net and the former minaret or Hiralda tower between palm trees on dark blue sky background – this is the visual formula that allowed Grosvalds to become aware of color the role of expression, their emotional and aesthetic effects, which will appear so strongly in his later works.

"I have always yearned to return to nature. If only I could stay there, take root in the forest floor from autumn through winter, perhaps death would not seem so terrifying."
The artwork addresses the fear of death through Latvian oral folklore and the ecological
aspects of death. The artist aims to create a space where death is recognised as a normal, albeit unpleasant, part of life.
This interdisciplinary composition serves as a meditation on the fear of death. The
mythological forest depicted in the painting establishes a sense of a location suspended between life and death, in space and time. Accompanying scents and sounds enhance the atmosphere, evoking associations with nature that feel slightly off, resulting in an uncanny mood. Viewers are invited to immerse themselves in this environment and explore their feelings regarding mortality.

Mustefa Abakeno, a dedicated smallholder farmer in the picturesque Jimma Zone of Western Ethiopia, manages an extensive 18-hectare farm. His farm is a testament to the rich coffee heritage of Ethiopia, featuring a diverse array of coffee varieties sourced from the esteemed Jimma research center. Mustefa's processing methods seamlessly blend traditional techniques with innovative practices, resulting in exceptional coffee beans that honor Ethiopia's esteemed coffee culture.
At the beginning of his endeavour, Mustefa purchased a three-discs Coffee Pulper to process half of his harvest using the Fully Washed method. However, due to water scarcity and limited fermentation space, he adapted his approach. The pulped coffee underwent a brief eight-hour fermentation process before being skillfully transferred to drying beds, until reaching the optimal moisture content. This process creates a wonderfull complexity, that compliments the traditional profile of Ethiopian coffee.

Origin: El Salvador
Region: Usulután
Producer: Diego Baraona
Altitude: 1400 meters above sea level
Variety: Elite Bourbon
Process: Washed
Roast level: Light roast
SCA Score: 85.00 points
Los Pirineos farm is operated by fifth-generation coffee producer Diego Baraona. Diego works to carry on a tradition and legacy built on more than 130 years of his family’s experience, history, and knowledge in coffee cultivation.
The farm sits at 1,400 meters above sea level on the slopes of a standalone volcano. This unique positioning provides a microclimate unlike any other, with sun-filled days and cool breezes that create an environment ideal for coffee production, processing, and drying.
This coffee is named “Elite,” a tribute to the 90-year-old Bourbon trees on Diego’s farm—a name given by his father to honor their heritage. This particular Bourbon lot underwent a washed processing method. After being freshly harvested, the cherries were pulped using water to remove the fruit from the parchment layer. The washed beans were then spread over shaded, raised beds, where they dried for 45 days until reaching their optimal humidity level.

The artist Niklāvs Strunke (1894–1966) is credited by the poet Aleksandrs Čaks and other contemporaries with introducing the Italian greeting “ciao” to Riga.
While his peers were rushing off to Paris, the most famous “Latvian Italian” lived in Rome, on the island of Capri, and in Florence from 1923 to 1927, also traveling through Venice, Tuscany, the Bay of Naples, and the Amalfi Coast.
In the Eternal City, captivated by Italy, the pittore lettone rented a studio near the Vatican; in Florence, he settled in the old town of Oltrarno; and on Capri, he stayed on the Marina Grande side.
The interwar years spent in Italy had a profound influence on the original artistic expression of this versatile Latvian modernist and apprentice of the old masters.
With its stripped-down, abstracted composition, harmonious proportions and rhythm, and vibrant local color, the small painting Sorrento (1924–1925), executed on a wooden panel, stands as an icon of Strunke’s easel painting and his “Latvian Italian” identity.
During his Italian period, Strunke’s artistic style became a distinctive fusion of modernist geometrization and inspiration drawn from Italian primitivism.

The biography and creative work of Jānis Rozentāls (1866–1916) vividly affirm the growing social and national self-awareness among Latvian artists at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
The painter first gained broad recognition at home in 1896 during the Latvian Ethnographic Exhibition, alongside his nationally patriotic contemporaries from the “Rūķis” circle, who championed the idea of serving their people and portraying their lives through art.
Along with Vilhelms Purvītis and Johans Valters, Rozentāls was one of the few contemporaries who brought Latvian visual art closer to the horizons of Europe’s major art centers around 1900.
In the Impressionist domestic scene On the Terrace (Veranda in Capri), a moment is captured on the island of Capri—beloved by writers, artists, and travelers. In the summer of 1912, it was one of the final stops on the painter's journey through Italy with his wife, Elli.
In a pergola shaded by climbing plants and protected from direct sunlight, vacationers are depicted in an intimately idyllic setting, enjoying a meal. In the foreground, seated at one of the white-covered tables, the artist has painted himself and Elli dressed in light-colored clothing.
Elli, a Finnish mezzo-soprano, had studied singing in Italy before their marriage. On this journey, she returned not only as an artist’s companion, model, and mother of their three children, but as someone deeply woven into his creative life.
The composition, built in fragments, carries the freshness of a study painting—carefree and light in mood, rich in color, and glowing with aestheticized tones, all suffused with shimmering reflections of plein-air light.
Rozentāls modeled the forms with painterly sensitivity, using dynamic and varied single-stroke brush techniques. The signature and date are notably accompanied by the place of creation—“Jan Rosenthal Capri / 1912”—a rare inclusion in his oil paintings.
LIGHT & JUICY
Origin: Peru
Region: Huabal
Producer: Regional farmers
Altitude: 1700-1900 meters above sea level
Variety: Caturra, Catuai, Catimor
Process: Washed
Roast level: Light roast
SCA Score: 84.00 points
Huabal is a district within the Jaen province of Cajamarca and has significant potential to produce high-quality coffee. Spanning multiple mountain ranges, Huabal features considerable variation in climate and soil composition. Some areas experience wet, humid conditions with red, African-like soils, while others are drier and hotter. This diversity contributes to complex and distinctive cup profiles.
This lot is a blend from multiple producers in the district of Huabal, where the average farm size is approximately 1.5 hectares. Producers in this area harvest and process their coffee independently, typically drying it on lined patios. After harvesting, the coffee rests for 24 hours before being depulped and fermented for 36 hours. It is then dried for 10 to 15 days until it reaches the ideal humidity level.
DECAF
Origin: Colombia
Region: Risaralda
Producer: Regional farmers
Altitude: 1400-2000 meters above sea level
Variety: Castillo, Variedad Colombia, Caturra
Process: Washed Sugarcane Decaf
Roast level: Medium roast (Espresso)
SCA Score: 82.75 points
The Risaralda Decaf is a blend of coffees from the regions of Asocafe Tatama Santuario, El Aguila, and Entreverdes. A regional blend created by our partner "Raw Material" means we can maximise the impact for producers across the department of Risaralda, by bringing much larger volumes of their coffee to the specialty market.
Sugarcane decaffeination is often termed as a natural process decaf. Ethyl Acetate is an organically existing compound (C4H8O2) and by-product found most commonly in the fermentation of fruits, and is present in both ripe bananas and beer for example.
This process begins with steaming of the coffee, increasing its porosity, beginning the hydrolysis of caffeine, which is usually bonded to salts and chlorogenic acid in the bean. The beans are then submerged in an ethyl acetate solvent, until 97% of the caffeine is removed. A final steam is then used to lift residual traces of the compound.
