Your granny never made a pie as delicious as this. With the fragrant aroma of cardamom, the acidity of warm, bursting blueberries, and the sweetness of carmelized sugars, this coffee places you right back in the squeaky wooden chair at your grandmother's dining room table.
No one is more suited to tailor this experience than Raquel Lasso, one of many Lasso's in a long line of coffeee growers. She continues to blow away experts and casual consumers alike with her immensely sweet, complex, and downright delectable crop. This generational farmer cultivates mouth-watering coffees in soil full of lava deposits from eruptions of the many surrounding volcanoes. Not only is the coffee of the highest quality, but Raquel's work has focused on empowering women within households towards financial autonomy through funded agricultural projects, both within and outside of coffee. She has seen that when women control at least part of their family finances, domestic violence decreases, children go to school more regularly, and families eat better and more often. Not only is this coffee a one of a kind, but so is the incredible woman behind it.
