This single-origin coffee is sourced from the village of San Lucas Zoquiapam in the Cañada region of Oaxaca, Mexico, at an altitude of 1600-1800 meters. Produced by the Garcia Morales family, this coffee features the Criollo Typica and Mundo Novo varieties and is processed using the washed method. The flavor profile is complex and dynamic, offering notes of Meyer lemon, bing cherry, dried pineapple, buttercream cookies, black walnut, bitter cocoa, amber honey, mossy puerh tea, and kumquat marmalade.
Established in 2016 by veteran roaster Stephen Rogers, who brings 25 years of experience to the craft, Pipe & Tabor is located in Red Hook, Brooklyn NY. At the heart of their operation sits a signature 1953 Barth Novo Cito cast iron drum roaster, a machine that relies on the roaster's sensory skills: smell, color development, and time rather than digital instruments. They source through Red Fox Coffee Merchants and demonstrate their commitment to farmer welfare by paying 4 to 6 times higher than commodity market prices. This dedication to quality at every stage defines their approach to roasting.
