About this coffee
This is our oldest direct relationship, with first purchase back in 2016. One of the first projects with our sourcing/import partner This Side Up. Back then it was from JP Argote. Production, harvest, wet- and dry-milling are all done by the Argote family. Produced without pesticides, the Argote family inspects all coffee trees visually for signs of leaf rust. Transition to regenerative agroforestry on its way. Actively creating a village of specialty coffee producers.
As the sales of their coffee grew, more of the surrounding farmers joined the project. Since 2019 we decided to buy the coffee from one single farmer of the Argote group: Jesus Ceron.
Jesus has been a coffee farmer all of his life. He came from a family of farmers and lives with his mother, wife and brother. They all work together to maintain the coffee fields and process the coffee at their own small mill. He has been selling coffee to the FNC for most of his life but after meeting Juan Pablo Argote, found out that his coffee is of exceptional quality. This is mainly due to his meticulous way of working.
He is healthy again after surviving cancer and chemotherapy some years ago, making his feat of high quality production even more astounding.
This year, Jesús’ coffee is tasting better than ever. You can expect notes of lemon, plum, and nougat. Your sophisticated and comfortable cup of coffee.
