Zesty lime, sweet tea and juicy orange. A crisp, fresh and energising delight. On our mission to source exceptional coffee, we partnered with Importer/Exporter Shared Source and their Los Guacharos group project, a collective of independent, ecologically-focused smallholder producers in Southern Huila, Colombia. Together, we bring you this unique pink bourbon blend, exported in February 2024. We paid 112% above the fairtrade price for this coffee: Read more here The Los Guacharos group is a powerful example of grassroots innovation in coffee production. Comprised of five dedicated farmers—Alirio Muñoz, Aldemar Quistial, Luis Octavio Titimbo, Viviana Realpe, and German Ortiz—they are united by their commitment to organic, regenerative agriculture. Each producer brings a unique approach to cultivating and processing their pink bourbon crops, ensuring the highest quality in every bean. This coffee is a testament to their dedication to sustainable practices, from homemade fertilisers to advanced water filtration systems that protect local ecosystems. The collective's move toward biodynamic methods, like their Super Magro brew—a fermented mix of organic minerals and waste—empowers them to maintain soil health and reduce reliance on chemicals. We’re proud to work with Los Guacharos, supporting their direct sales model and dedication to improving their craft. By purchasing directly from this inspiring group, we’re not only securing exceptional coffee but also contributing to the livelihoods of small-scale farmers committed to environmental stewardship. In presenting Los Guacharos to you, we’re thrilled to acknowledge the amazing work and contributions of our import/export partner, Shared Source.
