It may look like harvest season, but this footage is actually from January.
Right now, many coffee farms are still 4–6 months away from picking this year’s crop. While the cherries are still developing on the tree, this is the time of year when we begin planning our green coffee purchases for the upcoming harvest.
Over the next few months we’ll be talking with our import partners, reviewing samples, estimating our needs, and deciding which coffees will make up next year’s lineup. By the time fresh crop coffee starts arriving here, many of those decisions will already have been made. Great coffee starts long before it reaches the roaster. It starts with planning, relationships, and patience.
