This speciality single origin Arabica coffee is from La Paz, a famous coffee growing region in South Honduras. The COMSA Co-operative is one of a few co-operatives we source from in the region. It was founded in 2001, initially with 69 farmers, who were struggling against the lack of investment and inadequate infrastructure. With continual investment into organic farming practices and training, the co-operative has grown to be 1,200 strong, producing high quality speciality organic coffee in these rich volcanic and fertile soils.

Our latest Limited Edition coffee comes from Buesaco situated high in the Andes mountains within the Narino region of Colombia.

“Delicate floral aroma with a juicy body and a clean, crisp green apple acidity. Bright notes of cranberry and cherry are revealed as the coffee cools” George, Coffee Roaster.

Coop Cafes Especiales de Narino has a regional reputation for quality and the co-op cups coffees throughout delivery to build lots that are uniform and consistent in bean size and cup profile. The Buesaco Cherry lot is juicy, clean and floral, named for its fruit forward profile, created by allowing the coffee to rest longer in the cherry either on the tree or after being harvested. Producers fully wash the coffee on their respective properties and deliver the coffee in parchment where they are compensated according to the quality and consistency of their coffee.

Our latest Limited Edition coffee comes from producer Alberto Penecuque at his Los Naranjos farm situated in Gaitania, Tolima region of Colombia.

“This coffee is a fantastic representation of the historic and genetically inherent qualities of the Typica variety combined and enhanced with the innovative anaerobic fermentation technique used by contemporary farmers like Alberto. The amalgamation of both these elements creates a complex coffee that has outstanding clarity of sweet and fruity flavours balanced with orange acidity and smooth mouthfeel”

Colombian farmers are at the forefront of processing experimentation and anaerobic fermentation, although not a new technique, is growing in popularity due to the complex flavour profiles it can produce. Nearly all coffee undergoes some type of fermentation as bacteria and yeast begin to convert acids and sugars in the coffee’s mucilage (skin), into new and different acids. These compounds then absorb into the coffee seed building up wonderfully unique flavours that are released when roasted.  Unlike other fermentation techniques, anaerobic fermentation occurs when all the oxygen is removed from the vessels containing our cherries and valves help to keep the cherries oxygen free, allowing a slower fermentation process, resulting in the wonderfully rich tasting coffee with incredible sweetness and complexity.

Our latest Limited Edition coffee comes from Ruby Hills situated in Mogok, Mandalay region of Myanmar.

“Delicate aroma of vanilla and elderflower, followed with a juicy pop of raspberry and candied orange peel. This coffee has a crisp acidity with great structure” David, Coffee Roaster

The farm is family owned and operated by the Arrow Brothers, who have grown and processed coffee since 2002. It has 65 acres and an elevation of 1,500 MASL. Thi Ha Gyawalie is taking the lead in growing and processing coffees at his family farm. A certified Q Grader and processing professional, Thi Ha is an avid experimenter interested  in carbonic maceration and crafting interesting new profiles.

Cherries are harvested at peak ripeness, going through floatation and pulping within 4 hours of harvest. Fermentation then takes place for 48-72 hours, removing excess air and headspace and allowing the bacteria to breakdown the acids to form new flavour and aroma compounds. After fermentation is complete the coffee is dried for 20-24 days on raised beds.
