This single-origin coffee is produced by Maria Fernanda Echeverry and Alejandro Ariza at Finca Argelia in Inza, Cauca, Colombia, at an altitude of 1640 meters. The coffee is the Chiroso Bourbon variety and undergoes a washed process that includes 24 hours of anaerobic fermentation followed by three washes after pulping. It features a flavor profile of orange blossom, honey, vanilla bean, and mandarin orange. The roaster recommends resting the coffee for 3-4 weeks to maximize flavor.
Brainwave Coffee Roasters was founded by Max Zelenevich and Em Charniga in the Roxborough neighbourhood on the outskirts of Philadelphia. The roastery operates on a roast to order model with a bi weekly rotating selection of single origin coffees, and every bag is hand stamped as part of an artisanal production approach shaped by Em's background as an artist and creative director. Max handles roasting, curating what the pair describe as funky, unique, and delicious specialty coffees sourced from diverse origins. The business runs entirely online with no physical retail location, shipping fresh roasted beans directly to customers.
