Incoming Fresh Crop Guates - Let's start with Benjamin Lopez!

Photo: Shared Source   It’s time for fresh crop Guates on the D-dub menu … I guess we’re a little biased, but our coffee lineup is looking pretty delicious these days 🤠 This lot of caturra and yellow bourbon comes from a producer named Benjamin Lopez, straight out of his farm El Aguacate, surrounded by peach, banana, and avocado trees. This farm is located 1,775 meters above sea level in San Antonio Huista, in Guatemala of course. How did Dapper & Wise get the privilege of buying and sharing Benjamin’s coffee each year? As with other coffees on our menu,...

🤝 Relationship Coffee 🤝

Photo by Jasmine Chavez  -------- Yamid’s name is not new around the D-dub roastery, and if you’ve had our coffees before, his name might not be new for you either. We’ve had the privilege of having Yamid’s coffees in our lineup at least three times in the past, and we're back at it again with this lovely fourth iteration. We don’t know how he does it, but every year, this coffee tastes better than the previous year. We have a word for coffees like this, and as a coffee drinker around the Portland area, I’ll guarantee you’ve seen it used...
