This bright, juicy Pink Bourbon from Diever Galindez’s Finca Las Juntas is our first single producer lot from Monkaaba, a producer-led empowerment initiative that supports growers as they enter the specialty coffee market. Las Juntas is nestled among steep slopes at 1800 meters in Alto Las Chinas, Huila, Colombia. Coffee cherries were harvested over 3 days, fermented and then washed and dried. We chose a light roast to showcase the coffee’s stunning natural flavors. The resulting cup is sweet with bright acidity. We recommend preparing it in any manual brewer or a drip coffee maker.

Gitesi Natural is a sun-dried Red Bourbon Arabica Coffee from Gitesi Coffee in Rwanda. It is roasted light to highlight a bright and fruity flavor profile, with notes of honeydew melon, rose hips, and pomegranate. Enjoy it using your favorite pourover method or in your filter coffee machine.
