This coffee originates from Finca El Porvenir in Palestina, Huila, Colombia, situated at 1600-1800+ meters above sea level. Produced by Cecila Almonacid and Camilo Segura, the estate is located in the cloud forest belt of the Andes Mountains at 1800 meters elevation. The farm features volcanic ash-enriched black soil and significant diurnal temperature variations that create ideal conditions for slow coffee cherry maturation. The coffee is of the Tabi variety, processed using the washed method. The crop was picked in June-July 2025 and arrived in October 2025.
Founded in 2020 by Tong Zhang in Chengdu, this micro-specialty roastery emerged from an unexpected journey—a robotics engineer's transformation into coffee artisan after discovering specialty coffee in Paris. Zhang, who placed third in the French Brewers Cup in his first year as a barista, brings technical precision to every roast, using Stronghold S7Pro machines to highlight the unique terroir of each coffee through light profiles that express origin, climate, soil, and the people behind each bean.
