Coffee Recommendations From Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Panama, And More!

Greater Goods Coffee Co.

Greater Goods Coffee Co.: Kolla Bolcha—Sparkling acidity, creamy citrus flavor, and a tea-latte-like body make Kolla Bolcha a beautiful way to start the morning (or the afternoon). 10/10 recommend on V60, Origami, or Aeropress if you’re feelin’ wild. This washed coffee was grown by farmers in the Agaro region of western Ethiopia and processed at the Kolla Bolcha washing station. These folks changed the game for Agaro coffees; complex landrace varieties plus quality processing equals coffee magic. Taste it for yourself.

Intelligentsia Coffee

Intelligentsia Coffee: Otoño Blend—Fall is here, and with it, the next release in our seasonal blend lineup. Otoño is inspired by the reflection that autumn brings, when nature reveals its texture and each step outdoors is a chance to slow down and observe a beautiful transition unfold. For these blend, ingredients were carefully selected from our menu by our coffee team and combine in a recipe designed to deliver the flavors of the season. The 2023 edition of Otoño features three In-Season lots from our single-origin menu and three of the world’s most celebrated coffee origins: our Ethiopia Washed Alaka, Kenya Kamviu, and Guatemala La Florida.

Joe Coffee

Joe Coffee: Colombia La Familia Guarnizo—This coffee comes to us through a strong relationship between Joe Coffee and the El Paraiso growers’ association in Huila, Colombia. This bright and light-bodied selection was grown by a special group of El Paraiso’s member farmers: the Guarnizo family. Featuring notes of stone fruit and almonds with a medium acidity, this coffee is a customer favorite.

Madcap Coffee Company

Madcap Coffee Company: Luis Reinoso—Luis Reinoso grows coffee in Tolima, Colombia, with his wife Yenni. Though this coffee bears his name, Luis is the first to emphasize that it’s an equal partnership between Yenni and himself. In this balanced cup of the Caturra and Bourbon varieties, expect notes of cherry, red apple, and nougat.

The Reinosos had the first coffee Madcap ever purchased from Colombia. Luis and Yenni operate on a small, secluded 11-hectare farm. There you’ll find Luis diligently keeping records while processing small batches and Yenni raking the drying coffee on top of the roof of their farmhouse.

Night Swim Coffee

Night Swim Coffee: Rosalio Gutierrez – Natural—Rosalio is a young producer from the Valle Inca cooperative, only 38 years old. He and his wife Gladys cultivate the 10 hectares they share, only 2.75 of which are dedicated to coffee production. The rest of their land is for products for their own consumption, including pastures for cattle and old-growth forest. This sun-dried, bourbon varietal comes to us from Cusco, Peru and the Valle Inca cooperative. Located in Calca (specifically the remote subregions Yanatile and Lares) in the south of Peru, they launched in 2014 and Red Fox Coffee Merchants have been buying coffee from them ever since. Where, at first, Valle Inca yielded small quantities that struggled to make the grade quality-wise, they’re now one of their biggest vendors in all of Peru, producing enviable quality.
