Colombia's everyday cup — elevated. The Popayan Reserve comes from 65 smallholder farmers on the Meseta de Popayán in Cauca — one of the most consistent specialty coffee regions in Colombia. Sheltered by the Andes at 1,700 masl, the plateau's stable climate and volcanic soil produce a cup that is sweet, balanced, and endlessly drinkable. Processed using traditional washed fermentation and roasted to a medium profile by Counterpart Coffee in Squamish, BC. This is the coffee for your drip machine, your French press, and your cold brew. The one you come back to every day.

Freshness note: This washed coffee is brightest in the first 3–4 weeks after its roast date (printed on your bag) — that's when the citric acidity and clarity are most vivid. After that it's still great to drink for weeks more, just a little softer and rounder, with the acidity mellowing first.
