About this coffee:
Las Flores is behind this outstanding community project, where a strong focus on fermentation expertise helps bring out next-level flavour nuances in the coffees. After the success of Finca Las Flores, the Vergara brothers expanded their work to support neighbouring farmers through a project called Peñas Blancas.
About Coffee Collective:
At Coffee Collective, we work from a simple yet essential philosophy: To create truly great coffee, we start with the people who grow the beans. We trade directly with coffee farmers and pay prices far above market level. This is not just an investment in quality but also in farmers’ livelihoods, their future, and a more sustainable coffee industry.
Just as you pay a premium for a great wine, we believe that exceptional craftsmanship and outstanding quality deserve fair rewards. By paying more, we enable producers to invest in better production methods, improve their quality of life, and develop coffee to new heights, something you can taste in every cup.
