Finca El Mirador

About This Coffee

This coffee is a single-origin Arabica from Pitalito, Huila, Colombia, grown at an altitude of 1,680 meters. It is part of the El Puente project, which supports smallholder farmers by providing infrastructure for processing and access to the specialty market. The coffee is processed using the honey method, which retains mucilage during drying to enhance sweetness and body. The flavor profile features notes of bubblegum, candy banana, and butterscotch, offering a juicy, playful, and sweet cup suitable for both filter and espresso brewing.

Blaue Bohne

Blaue Bohne Rösterei is a specialty roastery in Berlin's Friedrichshain neighbourhood, founded in 2009 by Henrik Hülsmeier in a self managed house near the Boxhagener Kiez. Pablo Fuchs joined as a barista in 2012 while still a student and took over the business in 2019, building it into a team of ten people from across the globe who run the operation as a flat collective with no hierarchies. The roastery works on a 10 kilogram drum roaster, using green coffee from ecological cultivation and roasting in small batches with roast times of 13 to 19 minutes depending on the variety. Signature blends such as Bandido, Sumex and Berlin sit alongside seasonal single origins from farms including Hacienda Claudina in Colombia and producers in Ethiopia and Honduras. The motto translates roughly to real good coffee for real everyone, reflecting a deliberate openness that avoids specialty coffee dogma while still prioritising quality and traceability.
