Staycation Spring Blend | Organic

  • Plum, Dandelion, Black Tea
  • Medium Acidity, Light Body

Sometimes we have Bob Ross style happy little accidents at our Roastery. In this case, we accidently blended together our Holiday Blend with our Hometown Blend. Whoops! But upon tasting, we really liked this mix and decided to combine the two into our Staycation Spring Blend (get it? Hometown-Holiday mix?). This organic coffee is a blend of our Light Roast Guatemala and Peru coffees with a little Vienna Roast Colombia thrown in for good measure. We tasted springtime floral notes and hints of black tea in the cup.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

    Colombia | Organic | Vienna Roast

    • Blackberry, Brown Spice, Molasses
    • Medium Body, Low Acidity 
    Farmer: Perla de Inza Cooperative
    Region: Inza
    Elevation: 5,200 – 6,900 feet
    Varietal: Castillo, Caturra, Colombia

    Vienna-style is a darker roast but the coffee is not roasted into second crack so not as dark as a traditional dark roast. The municipality of Inzá is nestled in the middle of the great Colombian Massif. A mountainous region where most of the mayor rivers of the country are born, including the Magdalena, the Cauca and the Patia river. Inza is surrounded by volcanoes, plus the altitude and climate of this region make it perfect for growing specialty coffee. Very small producers tend to their land and hold on to their traditions. Many of them have produced coffee with little or no chemicals for generations. The Pillimue Family, crucial members of the community, led a program to certify 80 producers in organic practices. This small group of producers have become leaders in innovative organic practices, leading workshops in the community in order to re-use a lot of the waste created by the farm and to make bio fertilizers that are cheap and useful.
