This coffee is a wonderful addition to any daily coffee routine wIth its caramelized flavors and zesty citrus notes, it’s a coffee to please every palette.
We’re very excited to be working with Finca Palo Blanco again for the fifth year. Since 1990, when the farm was purchased by the Ovalle Altuve family, they’ve been working on transitioning the farm from conventional agriculture to organic. This is a long process that involves recreating the rainforest environment by planting trees and rebuilding the topsoil that has been washed away or otherwise destroyed by the conventional agricultural chemicals that are used in production. Also since the new ownership, apart from being ecologically and environmentally responsible, they have been simultaneously working towards being more socially responsible. For example, they are deeply involved in the support of their local school. We’re proud to be able to work with them and share this delightful organic crop that they’ve produced this season.
