The pink bourbon variety remains at the top of our list for big flavor, sweetness, and balance

Jose grew up on his family's farm, El Casino, and at the age of 16 left to become a bus driver. After more than a decade of driving, Jose desired a more stable career and returned to the farm and purchased it from his father. He poured his life into the farm and pursued a path of high quality. Combining his experiences with a passion for quality had led to exemplary coffee and we are thrilled to share this new lot with you!

Fresh off the grind the aromatics are intensely sweet with dark fruit notes like bing cherry. Cherry notes transfer to the cup as well and are joined by a juicy blood orange acidity and sweet toffee finish. The pink bourbon variety remains at the top of our list for big flavor, sweetness, and balance and this gem from Jose is a lovely representitive!

1Spot purchase

“Spot” is coffee in an importer’s inventory they have not sold. When we need to fill gaps in our contractual and relationship purchases, we buy spot. Of course, we are always open to spot becoming relationship purchases, and sometimes they do.

 2Contract purchase

Most of our purchases are contractual, meaning we have made a commitment to purchase the coffee before it arrives in the US. In general contracts are meant to build security for the producer and importer, and to help us make sure we have the coffee we need to share with you.

 3Repeat purchase

We are proud of the fact that many of the coffees we purchase are repeat purchases, and have been for years. Most producers, especially from Central and South America, can count on us purchasing their coffee year after year.

 4Visits

We’ve met, and have an ongoing relationship with the producer. At a minimum, they have visited us at Sweet Bloom, or we have visited them on the farm. As the relationship deepens, we build our understanding of:

1) challenges faced from one year to the next
2) sustainability practices on the farm
3) how the farmer is caring for their staff
4) ways in which we can support projects the farmers have implemented on the farm and in the community
