Rogue Wave Coffee Roasters
Edmonton, AB, Canada
This blend is our version of a community lot. Apex has chosen several smallholder farms surrounding the town of Yacuanquer to blend together to create a larger and more manageable lot size. By doing this, we allow numerous smallholder farmers to participate in the specialty coffee premiums being paid to farmers in the area that we work with. The farmers included in this blend consist of Doña Esperanza Cualtan, Don Cesar Ernesto, Doña Rosalba Ceballos, and Don Luis Antonio. All their farms are located at an altitude between 1900-2000 masl and each have under 2 hectares of land. They are situated near the Galeras volcano where they benefit from the rich soil and ideal microclimate for growing specialty coffee. Along with coffee, they also grow bananas, lemons, avocado, and yucca for their own consumption.
