Coffee Description
This coffee shines among other Colombian coffees. We cupped this coffee amongst 9 other samples and our first reaction was, Wow! This offering from Mireya Córdoba is extremely sweet and full of notes of citrus, cherry, and has a delicious yet soft buttery mouthfeel. The cleanliness in this coffee from Nariño was unlike any we've had before. This coffee is delicious from first sip, and throughout the cooling process where it really starts to rip!

About Mireya Córdoba of Colombia
Mireya Córdoba and her husband have been producing coffee for La Reb for quite some time. We first were introduced to her coffee from our friend Herbert Peñaloza who is our connection to the farmers of the coffee project headquartered in Bogota, Colombia. Herbert is extremely transparent with coffee pricing within the La Reb project and we pay a premium for this gorgeous offering from Mireya. This is our first year partnering with the distinguished coffee project and couldn't be more excited to present Mireya's coffee to you.

Five & Hoek
Five & Hoek, roasting since 2011, is focused on living life in community and connecting with others (or themselves with a good book) through coffees that tell stories. Their own story starts in India, where owners Tyler and Erich fell in love with the laid back culture experienced in tea gardens (and rickshaw rides), and brought back a desire to share that experience through the avenue of coffee and community.
Five & Hoek opened their Wheaton cafe in 2014, and are expanding to put both cafe and roastery under the same roof in 2019, where they will continue to source and roast both approachable and experimental coffees. They serve delicious coffee and inspire community through local customers and producers partners as they live out their tagline, “Coffee / Connection / Community.
