1. Peru Carranza

Born and raised in the town of Gracias a Dios, Carranza has been working in coffee since he was a child. Now as a member of Alpes Andinos, he is dedicated to growing high-quality coffee. From the start, producers belonging to the association have benefited greatly, as not only can members receive a higher price for quality products, but also attend training sessions on topics such as how to make their plots more productive. The association promotes this drive to develop better coffee, believing that producing great quality leads to producer empowerment and wider benefits for all coffee families. Carranza currently lives on his farm La Fortuna with his three children. The farm is named ‘The Fortune’ because it has helped support Israel and his children. With the income from coffee, thankfully schooling and basic necessities have been met.

This is our first coffee shipment from La Fortuna and pre-shipment samples have been more than amazing. We look forward to sourcing from Carranza’s farm in the future.

2. Rwanda Buf Remera

We feel privileged to have this naturally processed coffee from Rwanda landing in our roastery. Rwanda is one of our favourite coffee origins, and it’s always exciting when the first samples arrive. But this micro lot is really unique - and out of this world.

This 100% Bourbon lot was processed at BUF Cafe’s Remera washing station. Many of Buf’s natural lots are a blend of lots from their four washing stations. However, this special lot was produced entirely at Remera, at 1,900 meters above sea level.

The level of care that all Buf washing stations take over their processing is impressive. Cherries are hand-picked only when fully ripe and go through stringent sorting at all stages of processing. Most speciality coffee from Rwanda are wet-processed, but in recent years people at Buf Cafe have started to experiment and look for new and creative ways to produce exceptional coffee using the natural process method. This lot illustrates the very best that method has to offer. It’s fruity notes are clean and incredibly sweet with a juicy mouthfeel.
