This coffee is a single-origin bean from Ecuador, produced in Hacienda La Papaya by Juan Peña. It is part of Cat & Cloud's The Truth Program. The flavor notes described on the page emphasize juicy sweetness, delicate florals, bright mandarin citrus, dragon fruit, cherry cola, and syrupy sweetness, contributing to a vibrant, layered profile. The product is offered in multiple roast and packaging options (8 oz and kilo, whole bean and various grind sizes).
Cat and Cloud was founded in 2016 in Santa Cruz, California by Jared Truby, Chris Baca, and Charles Jack all former barista champions and coffee competition veterans. The roastery runs a Loring S15 Falcon. The company is built around what the founders call a Making People Happy philosophy, placing hospitality at the centre of everything from café service to wholesale relationships. Three Santa Cruz locations serve the retail side, and a popular podcast launched in 2017 covers coffee, hospitality, and the culture around both. Sourcing focuses on relationship coffees and farmer partnerships through direct trade.
