This single-origin coffee is grown by Santiago Luna Girón in La Concordia, Chiapas, Mexico, at an altitude of approximately 1,500 meters. The coffee is a blend of Bourbon and Marsellesa varieties, processed using a washed method where cherries are depulped, fermented for 24 hours in concrete tanks, and dried on cement patios. It offers a comforting flavor profile with notes of cinnamon raisin bread, sticky dates, and rich cacao nibs, characterized by a fluffy texture and a clean, light-to-medium roast profile.
Color Coffee Roasters is the brainchild of Charlie Gundlach, who turned his backyard roasting obsession into a legit operation in Eagle, Colorado, back in 2016. They’re pretty geeky about the science, hence the name Color, which links specific tasting notes to actual colors in a spectrum. Yet, they keep the vibe super chill and approachable for everyone while hunting for that perfect sweet spot on their energy-efficient Loring roaster to let the natural terroir really pop. Plus, they’re big on sustainability and transparency, so you can feel good about drinking a cup that’s as kind to the planet as it is tasty.
