Our Notes
Full-bodied yet smooth, this well-balanced coffee is defined by midnotes of pineapple and cane sugar, with a creamy base that carries into a clean, sweet finish.

At just 21-years-old, Jorge Arturo Benitez Miranda may seem pretty young to be managing an award-winning coffee farm, but for him it comes naturally. Jorge has been working on his family coffee farm, Las Peñitas, in Honduras ever since he was a boy. In 2010, shortly after taking over the farm from his father, Jorge continued his father’s legacy by winning the Honduras Cup of Excellence competition. These beans, roasted by Ithaca’s Gimme! Coffee, yield a full-bodied yet smooth cup. This well-balanced coffee is defined by midnotes of pineapple and cane sugar, with a creamy base that carries into a clean, sweet finish.

Our Notes
This delicate and balanced coffee is soft with flavors of toasted marshmallow, and mild tropical fruits like pineapple and banana.

Every cloud has a silver lining, and in this case, fantastic coffee also grows beneath it. These beans, farmed by Agustín Cruz, come from a tiny seven-acre farm located in a cloud forest in Chijchipani, Bolivia. The trio of Catuai, Typica, and Catimor varieties were grown under the misty canopy in a region known for its outstanding coffee production. Gimme! Coffee from Ithaca, New York, lovingly roasts the beans to bring out their gentle tropical sweetness. The coffee is delicate and balanced, with soft flavors of toasted marshmallow and mild tropical fruits like pineapple and banana.

Cima Del Jaguar, farmed by Aida Titirico Hilari
Origin
Caranavi, Bolivia
Varieties
Caturra, Catuai
Elevation
1,700-1,900
Meters Above Sea Level
Process
Fully washed and sun dried on elevated tables
Our Notes
Sweet aromatics of almond butter are followed by hints of tart cherry. The delicate and soft body of this coffee finishes with notes of dry Riesling.

There are only 16 bags of this coffee in the world. All of it produced by Aida Titirico Hilari, a 25-year-old mother of three. The Cima del Jaguar (“Jaguar’s Hilltop”) collective she runs with her husband Braulio and brother Carmelo doesn’t just have a really sweet name--it produced 3 of the top 10 winning lots in the 2009 Cup of Excellence. When the 2010 Cup of Excellence program was cancelled in Bolivia, coffee roasters rushed to lock up the best coffees in the country--Ithaca’s Gimme Coffee snatched up Aida’s entire lot. Grown at 1800 meters, Aida’s farm produces both the Caturra and Catuai varieties, which are washed and sun-dried and totally organic.
