We bring you the first of two lots this year from Colombia’s most prestigious super-specialty producer – Café Granja La Esperanza. They manage 3 farms: Cerro Azul, Potosi and Las Margaritas. This lot is the exotic variety from Finca Las Margaritas – Red Bourbon. While it is not as delicate as Gesha, Red Bourbon is one of the most culturally and genetically important Arabica varieties in the world and is known for outstanding quality in the cup when grown at the highest altitudes.
Bourbon is one of the earliest cultivars of the Typica group. It was first introduced in 1860 to Southern Brazil. From Bourbon Island in the Indian Ocean (now La Reunión), where it was cultivated by French missionaries in the early 1700s, it later spread into South and Central America. Bourbon is known for its distinctively sweet and delicate flavours. The plants are fragile and don’t produce as much fruit as some other varieties.
This coffee was first fermented in open tanks for 19 – 22 hours. Following this, it was de-pulped without water and fermented in mucilage for another 35 hours. Water is a precious resource high in the Cauca Valley, so the producers work hard to reduce their water consumption by using this alternative process. After the second fermentation, the remaining mucilage was removed mechanically, and the cherries were dried in mechanical driers to achieve a moisture content of 11%. This carefully calculated process combined with our arduously researched roast profile creates a beautiful flavour landscape exhibiting delicate notes of cantaloupe melon, peach and lychee. The cup finishes with a unique, tangy tomato finish that ensures the coffee leaves a strong mark in your memory. The cup is further characterized by a creamy, buttery body and a lasting sweetness that remains on your palate for prolonged periods after you have finished your cup!
Your thorough enjoyment of this coffee will be a testament to the high degree of detail and hard work that has gone into producing this cup. Relish it!

We have promised ourselves to be as constraint-averse as possible. So, even if your needs go beyond roasted beans/roast & ground coffee into the realm of drip bags, dip bags, nutrition mixes, etc., we will find the ideal coffees that fit with these customizations. The objective is not to impose our ideas on our clients but to design solutions to execute their ideas.
Customize Products to Suit Your Needs
The customization of your products will be spread across three dimensions ? roasting, grinding and marketing support. This will ensure that they are differentiated and well-positioned in the market. We employ an artisanal approach to roasting which combines scientific information with artistic ability to bring the best out of the beans we source.
We first collect information from our partner farms/processors about the growing and processing techniques used to produce the beans we source. We then study the physical characteristics of the bean such as moisture, color, shape and density. Before sourcing each lot, we run a series of experiments in our lab to understand how various roasting patterns create different interactions of heat with the beans to produce different flavor profiles. Once we identify a profile that yields extraordinary results, our decision to source the coffee is finalized. This in-depth understanding of each of the lots that we source enables us to provide our clients with highly customized products ? whether the coffees are single estate, single origin or blends.
In addition to customized roasting, we offer customized grinding solutions to clients who do not possess grinding equipment. We also provide our clients with product stories, packaging design ideas and any other related information that can assist them with marketing. All our partners are given access to complete traceability information and documentation when applicable to the products they source.
Design a Tailored Supply Plan
Coffee is an annual crop and due to the high demand for specialty coffee, most roasters complete their sourcing activities for the year 2 ? 3 months after the harvest period. Due to this reason, specialized lots of coffee are available only in limited quantities. But to ensure that you never run out of coffee, we can design tailored supply plans for each of your products to meet demand throughout the year.
Whether you require small specialized batches of 5kg a month or have a much larger commercial requirement, we can plan ahead to ensure your coffees always reach you on time and your customers are never left wanting.
Coffee Beans for Roasters
Our sister firm deals with an annual export of 10,000 ? 15,000 metric tons of coffee in a year. This expansive trading network has given us the ability to source a large variety of high-quality coffees from all growing regions in India and around the world. We extend this sourcing network to roasters of all sizes and maintain very small minimum order quantities to ensure our clients are given the opportunity to experiment roasting with different coffees. As your sourcing partner, we will enable you to source volumes that are aligned with your expected demand. Our access to numerous coffee markets combined with our small MOQs will let you experiment with your product mix and switch between products whenever you deem necessary.
