Roaster Notes
We're so happy to have Wilmer Galindez' coffee back on the menu. When Wilmer was only 20, his mom and sister abandoned the family farm due to debts incurred following the passing of Wilmer's father. Wilmer stayed behind, and within 3 years he had recuperated the farm and paid back almost all of the debts his family owed. His mother and sister then returned to the farm and requested that Wilmer return it to their possession. Despite all of the work he had put in, he accepted their request. Taking on personal debt, he purchased a small three hectare (~7.4 acres) lot a few hundred meters from his family's original farm. This lot was relatively untouched mountain jungle that he, over the next 4 years, cultivated and planted 3,000 trees of San Bernardo, 1,700 trees of Pink Bourbon, and 2,000 trees of Tabi. This Tabi separation is tasting densely sweet with a toffee like quality. Jammy strawberries are present up front that yield to brighter kiwi as it cools.
