ABOUT THE COFFEE

At Hacienda El Obraje, Pablo Guerrero grows coffee at some of the highest elevations in Colombia. The latest rarity comprises two of the most exciting coffee varietals out there: Gesha and Maracaturra, with profiles that combine intense fruitiness and delicate florals. Through washed processing, the character of these special varietals is delivered with exceptional clarity.
At his estate, Pablo has planted Maracaturra between the Gesha plants. The varietals have similar ripening times and sugar content, so the cherries are harvested when perfectly ripe and blended to produce one lot. Maracaturra makes up just a small portion of production at El Obraje, but its depth and sweetness make it an irreplaceable component.

ABOUT The Barn

The Barn is Europe's leading coffee roastery, located in Berlin, which has been a Specialty Coffee Movement pioneer of the highest level since 2010. The coffee they supply and roast is served in many cafes and homes in at least 28 countries around the world.

The Barn's vision has been clear from the start - they focus on making their coffees from "better" to "best" - no compromises, just great coffee. They don't blend varieties so they can extract the specific flavor profiles that set each coffee farm apart in taste. This makes the farmers they work with proud and their product completely traceable.
