I am currently writing from San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Because many of you asked questions about this part of our work, I decided to talk more about our purchasing process (searching for rare batches, visiting our partners'farms...)We recently received an invitation from our partner Coagricsal : we decided to visit its plantations.

I strongly invite you to listen, and above all subscribe, to this podcast which revolves around coffee. A creation by Mr. Sébastien Blondeau which adds to the French-speaking café culture in Quebec. So I had the honor of being the guest of Sébastien who came to see us in Carleton-sur-Mer to understand how a roaster like us manages to survive in a small village in Gaspésie :-)
I'll tell you an anecdote. I was on vacation somewhere in Quebec. In a restaurant ranked #1 according to trip advisor, really good, the food was good, good service. When I got to dessert, the waiter offered me a coffee.
I then ask him what coffee he serves, he answers: fair trade coffee.

With a tasting score of 90.83 - which earned it a "Presidential award" - Sitio Monte Sinai well deserves its place in our Select Reserve. But to what does this variety of coffee from Brazil owe its exceptional taste? Is it the ground? The climate ? Humidity? Coffee professionals agree that the most determining parameter is the method of processing the bean: the Pulped Natural Process.
Last November 28, I had the knife between my teeth for the Cup of Excellence Brazil auction, Pulped Natural.
And I finally got lot #3. Yes, yes, you read correctly, batch #3!

Starting at 9 a.m. today, I will be in the middle of the battle to purchase a batch of coffee for our Select Reserve collection at the Cup of Excellence Brasil ''Pulped Natural'' auction.
let's have a coffee!
