Our flagship blend does double duty for both brewed coffee and espresso applications. Pronounced fruit, chocolate, and caramel notes from three separate origins make for a coffee that's incredibly intricate, yet roasted to be beautifully balanced. You can dig in and analyze it, or just turn your brain off and enjoy it. In milk based drinks The Answer melts into pure caramel and butterscotch, with hints of fruit peeking around the corner. We've been working on this one for a while and are incredibly proud of what we've created together.

The Colombia Luis Ahumada comes to us from a long family line of coffee producers in Nariño, Colombia.  Luis Ahumada grew up in a multigenerational coffee-producing family, and now tends the same lot of coffee plants that he grew up around as his father cultivated them. Finca Parque Bonito, or “Pretty Park”, named by Luis for its beautiful garden, is one of two plots he operates in the area. Working both plots year-round and tending to over 6,000 coffee trees, Luis also enjoys growing plantains among his endless hills of coffee trees and will sell them locally when there’s enough. He is well known by his community for being a shy and humbly proud man, so we want to take this moment to brag a little on his behalf. We are stoked to have the chance to share his incredible work with you and the results of his family's generations of cultivation and commitment to quality. 

Experience

Tart jammy sweetness, rich molasses sugars, and tropical fruits make the Luis Ahumada a stunning cup of coffee. The first sip lifts the palate with bright Raspberry, before cooling into the sweetness of brown sugar rolled in the juicy complexity of mango. This coffee is a perfect choice for anyone who enjoys the intricacies of light coffees looking for a new exciting cup to try. 

Origin // Colombia 

Region // Nariño

Producer // Luis Ahumada

Variety // Castillo

Elevation // 1,900 M.A.S.L

Process // Washed

Flavor Notes // Raspberry, Brown Sugar, Mango

Region: Nariño

Located on the steep hillsides and among the valleys of the Colombian Andes Mountains are thousands of smallholder farms. Luis has even added a small dirt staircase to help his mother get up and down the dramatic terrain. The altitude, dramatic sloping mountainsides, and the attached cloud banks create an atmosphere ideal for coffee in the Nariño Department. Coffees from Nariño are known for a high acidity, and concentrated sweetness. 

Processing Method: Washed 

Luis’s processing methods have been passed down from generation to generation, after carefully hand-selecting the cherries, the fruit is brought in from the fields where Luis begins the wet mill processing. The cherries are depulped, placed in fermentation tanks for 12 hours, and washed the following morning. The seeds are then slowly dried on raised beds he built himself.

Four years ago we began working with Rosalío Martinez of Antigua, Guatemala. Circumstances worked out so when we met Rosalío, he had just refreshed one of his farms, and was in the process of deciding what to plant. Since the plot of land was only able to support a smaller number of plants, coffee legend Luis Pedro of the Bella Vista Mill recommended propagating a unique varietal where the quality would compensate for the lower quantity. Luis Pedro had Java seeds on hand, a variety historically produced in Indonesia, and offered to donate the seeds to Rosalío. Coffee producers tend to be adverse to change and risk, preferring to rely on their experiences with the processes and plants they know, so initially Rosalío was a bit reluctant to plant the unfamiliar Java variety. Understanding the risk he was taking, our sourcing team at Cat & Cloud committed to purchasing the Java coffee produced, mitigating some of his risk by guaranteeing the coffee would be purchased. Four years later, we have the first full harvest of the Java, and we are so excited to share it with you!

The coffee that became known as the Java variety was originally brought to the island of Java from Ethiopia in the early 1800s, thought to be the Typica variety. As it was produced in Indonesia, it showed its own characteristics that differentiated it, including resistance to disease and pests. Ultimately it was introduced to Latin America in the 1990’s, where it has shown delicious cup quality when grown at high elevations. 

Experience

Juicy tangerine, velvety nougat, and a finish reminiscent of peach cobbler make this an amazing coffee for someone looking for complexity and nuance in their cup. Offering the ultimate balance of creamy body and fruit sweetness. This coffee is a beautiful representation of the smooth and delicate stone fruit and heavy body of the Java profile evolving with the terroir of citrus and chocolate in coffee from Antigua.

Deep Dive

Rosalío Martinez is a member of the Hunapú producer group in Antigua. The name of the producer group, Hunapú, is the local indigenous name for the nearby volcano, Volcán de Agua. The producers themselves all reside on the lower to mid altitudes of the actual volcano. In this area, there are many coffee producers who have small plots of land and bring their fresh crops to the renowned Bella Vista coffee mill for processing and export. Rosalío is one of Hunapú’s more prolific producers, having worked in coffee for 25 years, with 9 different plots of coffee over 7 hectares. He also has deep ties with Bella Vista’s owner (and a legend in his own right) Luis Pedro Zelaya Zamora, who we have a strong direct relationship with, and who initially facilitated us working with Rosalío. 

Region: Antigua

Antigua sits in the shadow of three volcanoes — including the very active Fuego Volcano. When Chris, Jared, and Charles visited together a few years ago, Fuego was spewing plumes of ash and the lava was flowing — it’s that same volcanic ash that contributes to the incredible minerality of the soil, and in turn, the beautiful citrus fruit and dark chocolate profiles often found in these coffees.

Processing Method: Washed 

Washed Coffees in Guatemala are first de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Mucilage remains on the seed and a fermentation process is used next to remove the mucilage. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed and then laid out to dry on cement patios

This new Kenyan coffee comes to us from the Kagumoini coffee factory in the Nyeri region. The factory is operated by the Kamacharia Farmers Cooperative Society, an association of 6,100 smallholding producers who provide training seminars on good agricultural practices giving them tools to continually pursue better quality of coffee. Twice a year the coop members transport their perfectly ripe cherries to the Kagumoini factory to be processed. Each days deliveries are blended together, limiting each lot's traceability, but allowing hundreds to thousands of smallholding producers to sell their cherries. 

Experience

Bright fruity sweetness and warm toasted nuttiness make the Kenya Kagumoini an absolutely stunning cup of coffee. Opening with a burst of juicy Strawberry, before lifting even higher with grapefruit acidity. As it settles on the palate, the Kagumoini rolls into beautifully roasted pine nuts in the finish, making it an awesome choice for anyone familiar with lighter coffees looking for a complex new experience.

Deep Dive

Although the Kenyan Co-op system does offer its challenges in getting coffee directly from individual producers, there are benefits to the Co-op system that ensure the coffee quality is top-notch, including access to agronomists for growing information, and an incredibly dialed-in washing process that makes the coffee shine. It also offers producers the ability to sell their coffee cherries, no matter the size of their farm and the amount of coffee grown. 

Region: Nyeri

Rich with volcanic soil, the Nyeri region is recognized for some of the best coffees that Kenya produces. Born out of the East Africa Rift Valley, this series of volcanos create soil with incredible minerality and fertility. The terroir here is responsible for some of the brightest, most tropical and complex coffees in the world. 

Processing Method: Washed

Washed Coffees in Kenya are first picked ripe and de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Then to remove the remaining mucilage the seeds are fermented in open air tanks for 24-48 hours.. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed before being soaked underwater for 12-72 hours and laid out to dry on raised beds for 10 – 14 days.

Wilson Morales has been a part of our Best Friends Club for the last 5 years, and with each passing season, the quality of the coffee produced on his farm Finca Aurora has improved in amazing ways. This is partially due to his Pacas coffee plants reaching maturity, and the prime of their production, but also due to the care he puts into his farm. Wilson created Finca Aurora inspired by his work as a Honduras National Parks system conservationist. His understanding of a healthy, biodiverse ecosystem has helped him structure the farm; planting native and endangered trees alongside his coffee.The diverse flora on his property acts as companion plants to the coffee, providing shade, and ample pollinators, helping the plants reach their full potential. 

Experience

Wilson’s coffee is a delight year over year, bringing a wonderful balance of tart juicy characteristics balanced with a heavy body and mouthfeel. This year's harvest hits hard with tons of juiciness up front, reminding us of a yellow Starburst, before that sweetness evolves into tart stone fruit reminiscent of a pluot. The coffee has a heavy, creamy body akin to milk chocolate. This is a great selection for anyone who enjoys a dynamic and juicy single origin.

Deep Dive

Typically with Best Friend’s Club producers, a dollar from each pound of coffee we sell goes directly back to the producer. For 2023 and 2024 when we visited Honduras to deliver the funds, Wilson refused the additional income and instead had a special request for us to help him spread the word on another project he has been working on. Along with producing coffee, Wilson also works as a conservationist for the Honduras National Parks system, and over the past year, he has been an active contributor to an international research project surrounding the identification of endangered species and newly discovered subspecies of Magnolia trees. Wilson’s interest in the conservation of magnolia trees is directly related to coffee production, and supporting his local community. Magnolia trees are excellent pollinators and grow quickly meaning they are the perfect companion plants for coffee shrubs, and can also be harvested and used as sustainable building materials. Wilson’s vision is for Magnolia’s to be planted throughout Honduras, reestablishing them in their native habitat and offering these benefits on a larger scale. By purchasing a bag of Wilson’s coffee this year, you are supporting the spread of this vision! 

Region: Santa Barbara

The Santa Barbara region of Honduras is a mountainous landscape in northwestern Honduras. Wilson’s coffee comes to us from an area of the mountain called El Cedral, and his position on the mountain makes it an ideal place to grow coffee. On either side of his farm are the farms of William Guzman, Damian Chavez, and Benjamin Paz! William Guzman has an exclusive partnership with our friends at Dune Coffee in Santa Barbara, CA and Damian Chavez is another Cat & Cloud Exclusive relationship coffee. When we visit, it feels like a little slice of home away from home.

Processing Method: Washed

Washed Coffees in Honduras are first de-pulped to remove the fruit from the seed. Some mucilage remains on the seed and a fermentation process is used next to remove the mucilage. After the mucilage is removed, the coffee seeds are washed and then laid out to dry on cement patios. You can expect washed process coffees to be clean, bright, and a sparkling quality.

Straight peanut butter and jelly…continued. The specific lots of coffee and farms that we bring in for this menu slot may change throughout the year as the seasons change, but we love offering (and drinking!) a coffee with this flavor profile, so you can expect to see something fresh and delicious from this region of Brazil on our menu for most of the year.

Fazenda Rainha is located in Brazil’s Vale da Grama, an ancient volcanic valley that spans the borderlands of Mogiana and Minas Gerais. We love coffees grown in old volcanic areas, as the (relative) newness of the soil is full of nutrients. The rolling hillsides of the farm produce trees lush with green leaves and plump, juicy, Yellow Bourbon cherries. A repeat finalist in the Brazil Cup of Excellence, Fazenda Rainha took home first place in 2011. Their commitment to excellence is apparent in every cup.

Seasonally sourced from 10 – 30 smallholding producers in the Cauca region of Colombia, the Valle del Cauca represents the spectrum of flavors that can be found in the region. The coffee produced at higher elevations develops complex acidity and delicate florals, while coffee from lower elevations presents rich chocolate, toffee, and a velvety body. Creating the regional blend brings together a balance that represents the full spectrum of what the producers and varied terrain have to offer. 

Experience

Round, sweet, serving up a bit of juice, the Valle del Cauca is the perfect all-purpose single origin coffee for espresso or drip that will speak to most people. It has an upfront citrus acidity reminiscent of limeade, before rolling into cocoa nib and toffee. It is delicious on its own, but also pairs well with a bit of cream. However you take your coffee, you’ll find a way to enjoy this one.

We love that naturals are so polarizing in the coffee community. If you are familiar with our brand at all, you know we value them as approachable and exciting for coffee drinkers across the experience spectrum. It’s for this reason that you’ll likely see a naturally processed coffee on our coffee menu year-round. 

That said, we taste tables and tables of naturally processed coffees before approving one for our menu.
