FROM COLOMBIA TO WESTWARD HO!
Ever wondered where the coffee in your morning flat white actually comes from?
Our house espresso, BS1 from Triple Co Roast, starts its journey thousands of miles from Westward Ho!, high in the mountains around Buesaco, Colombia.
The coffee is grown by a community of smallholder farmers working with the Procaal cooperative, led by long-term Triple Co partners Jose Gomez and Pablo Guerrero.
And this is where the story gets interesting.
Procaal buys the coffee from the farmers while it is still wet and in parchment. The cooperative then takes responsibility for the crucial drying process. This gives them greater control over quality, reduces the risk of unpredictable weather damaging a farmer’s crop, and helps ensure producers receive a fair and sustainable price throughout the year.
Procaal also gives local growers access to knowledge, quality control and the speciality coffee market. It means the people growing the coffee aren’t simply at the beginning of the supply chain. They’re part of it.
The beans then make their way to Triple Co Roast in Bristol, where they’re roasted to create BS1, an espresso designed to be sweet, smooth and ridiculously easy to drink.
It gives milk chocolate, sticky caramel and a little kick of juicy red fruit at the end.
So that cup you’re holding at SOS has travelled quite a way to get here.
Buesaco, Colombia → Bristol → Westward Ho!
Grown with care. Bought with purpose. Roasted to perfection. Poured with love.
