We’re thrilled to share both our first lot sourced from Wilmer Galindez and our first time roasting the Tabi variety. We’re fully in awe of Wilmer’s drive and vision, as he (in his early 20s!) single handedly revitalized his family’s farm and invested in another 3 hectare plot that’s planted with multiple prized varieties. Even though he grew up working as a coffee grower and picker, it wasn’t until he connected with Esnaider and Didier, via joining the Monkaaba collective, that Wilmer was able to access higher prices via the specialty market.
Now it’s full speed ahead for Wilmer, and he’s investing money and energy towards growing his production and improving processes. We’ve had the opportunity to sample a handful of coffees from Wilmer the past few seasons and have always been incredibly impressed. His passion and attention to detail (and variety selection!) no doubt all shine through in the final cup. We’re tasting: blackberry, cherry, red grape, tomato jam, orange zest, brown sugar, milk chocolate, sweet black tea.
