Early morning dew and fog carries through the Sandoval #coffeefarm in Honduras1 of 4 farms that produce our El Socorro #microlot. If you're looking for a touch of something different from Central America, we liken this creamy-bodied, and mild cup to a vanilla-chocolate milkshake! #HonduranCoffee #coffeesourcing #coffeelife #coffeefirst #coffeeconnects #specialtycoffee #roasting

Churning out fresh samples this morning for some staff cuppings later on. Gotta keep on your game and keep those #roasting skills up! It takes more than just sourcing the world's best coffee to stay on top!! #coffeesourcing #coffeecupping #coffeelife #coffeeconnects #specialtycoffee

For those who have never seen it, #PapuaNewGuinea's Eastern Highlands are filled with beautiful and amazing vistas like this. These red poinsettias are just one of thousands of flower and plant species that can be found growing wild here. #PapuaNewGuineaCoffee #coffeesourcing #coffeelife #coffeefirst #coffeeconnects #specialtycoffee #roasting #coffeeroaster

Morning greetings from Nyeri, Kenya and the producers of our Kenya Kahuro AB. Many farmers here also grow an assortment of flowers, beans, berries and veggies for their local markets. Thanks to one of Kenya’s mildest climates and excellent volcanic soil, Nyeri is one of the country's best agricultural regions. #KenyanCoffee #roast #roastcoffee #coffeefirst #coffeeconnects #specialtycoffee #coffeeroaster

Mechanized harvesting is a rare sight in specialty coffee. #Brazil's tropical savannas in #MinasGerais are one of the few growing regions that these machines can access safely. Considering the demand for #Braziliancoffee (which accounts for a full 1/3 of worldwide production) and the fact that they've been the world's top producer for nearly 150 years, machine-based trades, jobs and innovation remains critical to the industry.

Shaded view from one of the small Kenyan #coffeefarms that produces our coop-grown Kenya Kahura AB in #Nyeri. These are traditional SL28 & SL34 varieties that excel in this relatively mild climate just west of Mt. Kenya. It has a very nice cup with a sweet, citrusy, floral aroma, very good acidity and notes of honey, black cherry and black tea. #Kenyancoffee #coffeesourcing #coffeeroasting

Fall is officially here, and in many coffee growing regions harvests are already under way. South of the equator the seasons are inversed, so some countries like #Colombia and Brazil are in the midst of their 2nd growing season, called a mitaca. #CoffeeGrowing #CoffeeSourcing #CoffeeFacts

Check out this little slice of heaven in #MinasGerais that produces part of our Brazil Prima Qualita. The lot is an expert blend of natural and pulp natural coffees designed to be THE ideal #Braziliancoffee experience. Great cup this year w/ notes of tangerine-orange, apricot and cashew! #coffeesource #coffeesourcing #coffeefarm #coffeeindustry #coffeelife #coffeefirst #coffeeconnects #specialtycoffee #coffeeroaster
