This coffee is grown by approximately 40 smallholder farmers in San Pedro Yosotatu, Oaxaca, Mexico. It is a high-altitude coffee featuring a blend of Pluma, Bourbon, and Typica varieties. The coffee is processed using the washed method. The flavor profile is light and crisp, characterized by notes of caramel, lime, dried mango, honey, and mild spice. It offers a balanced cup with bright citrus and juicy fruit layered with sweetness and a refreshing acidity.
Winfield and Joy Durham founded Sisters Coffee Company in 1989 in the small town of Sisters, Oregon, starting with a five pound roaster after discovering their love for coffee while working in Alaska in 1984. They became the first specialty roasters in Central Oregon. In 2017, three of their children, Justin, Jared, and Jesse, took over leadership, making it a true multi generational family operation. Sisters roasts over 270,000 pounds annually on a 25 kilogram Probat roaster and maintains direct trade relationships with producers, traveling to origin three to four times a year. They were the first U.S. roaster to purchase directly from Aurelio Villatoro's Finca Villaure in Guatemala in 2004, a relationship that continues today.
