About This Coffee

Produced by Jhoan Manuel Vergara Ayure and his family at Finca Las Flores in Acevedo, Colombia, this Red Bourbon coffee features an innovative processing method. The cherries undergo thermal shock, multiple stages of anaerobic fermentation, and an oxidative phase before being dried in hermetic chambers. This complex process results in a vibrant, layered cup with notes of sweet banana bread, raspberry marshmallow, and white tea. It offers a balanced profile with delicate florals, a refined tea-like character, and a syrupy mouthfeel.

Clifton Coffee

James Fisher founded Clifton Coffee in Bristol in 2001, initially servicing espresso machines before Ed Buston joined and expanded the business into wholesale. Several of their earliest multi site customers in Bristol remain clients over two decades later. In 2013, Clifton invested in an in house production roastery and a training facility that was among the first of its kind in the UK. By 2022, it had become Bristol's largest roasted coffee wholesaler, supplying around 850 customers including specialty shops, Michelin starred restaurants, and five star hotels across the UK, EU, and Middle East. Ninety percent of the coffee is bought directly from origin through the company's own sourcing relationships. Clifton achieved B Corporation certification in 2023 and holds SCA Premier Campus status.
