About this coffee: 

Funes is a farm in Colombia's Nariño region. It sits high up, the day-to-night temperature swings are wide, and the air is clean. That kind of environment is tough on the plants, which is exactly what you want — cherries grown slowly come out dense and still delicate on the cup. The Andes break the area into pockets of different microclimates, so the cherries get the time they need to build sugar properly.

Luis Alberto Ortiz, the producer, runs on one simple rule: quality is decided at the picking, not later. His crew only takes cherries at full ripeness. No stripping branches, no rushing a lot through because the schedule says so. You end up with more sugar in the mucilage, and that reads in the cup as a cleaner sweetness and better structure.

About Momos Coffee:

Momos Coffee started in 2007 as a small takeaway coffee shop right next to the restaurant where it belonged to his parents. Since then, over the last 17 years, we have sequentially and gradually expanded our business areas, including roastery, education programs, and e-commerce businesses. From seeds to one single cup of coffee we create, we hope everyone who is in this chain industry can pursue better lives.

The very first impression when we experienced the Specialty Coffee industry in Atlanta, in 2009 settled in our hearts and inspired us to keep moving forward over the decades. As a result of more than 10 years of knocking on the door of competition, Joo Yeon Jeon finally earned 1st place, which is known as the most significant competition in 2019, Boston.

Seeking the highest quality has been always our motivation, we started to travel origins, meet people, and do direct trade from the 4 Central American countries in 2011. Through many years of experience, now we are working with more than 16 countries, and more than 130 producers to understand each other and the meaning of long-term relationships and sustainability. We've successfully built this solid relationship through many obstacles and difficulties. And that makes the most important value of us more special to everyone.
