When coffees are grown, harvested, and roasted with care and passion, you can taste it!

Carlos Pola’s Lab in Juayúa has provided so many amazing experiences with incredible people over the years.

There is always something to learn about coffee, especially when you’re surrounded by passionate professionals with a lot of knowledge to share.

Our journey to El Salvador began with Gilberto Baraona of Los Pirineos. So lovely to be sitting here with a cup of beautiful Pacamara Natural from the Baraona family 10 years later. And a slice of Pie de Guayaba con Queso por supuesto! 🇸🇻

Very stoked to have some excellent El Salvadoran coffee grown by the incredible .apaneca farm school and roasted by our friends ❤️🤙

When in La Ventana, Baja Sur you’ve got to check .renaissance out! They are doing an excellent job with coffees from Chiapas.

The coffee industry is ever-changing, but the upcoming weeks, months, years may be quite dramatic. C-price is rising towards all-time highs. With our buying practices we may not be as directly affected as bigger commercial operations but the whole supply chain will surely be feeling it.

We are taking the time to appreciate all that coffee has given us over the years, especially the incredible relationships. 📸 circa 2020

Excellent article in this quarter. shares valuable insight about her journey in coffee. Thanks for your perspective! 🙏

When you buy coffee, how important are the flavor notes to you?

We’re of two minds. It can be quite helpful especially to encourage palate development. For example, wow this coffee tastes like blueberries? Let me see if I can taste blueberries. So cool, coffee can taste like blueberries!

On the other hand, flavor notes tend to restrict and direct our taste buds with bias. As coffee professionals we tend to prefer blind tasting to avoid preconceived expectations of what we’re tasting.

Would you rather taste for yourself and develop your own opinion or do you like our flavor notes?

Thanks for chiming in!
