Coffee Description
From the misty mountains of Guatemala comes this beautiful Natural processed Red Bourbon from brothers David and Eddy Solano. When warm, we taste notes of tart Red Apple and Hazelnut, and Dark Chocolate. As this coffee cools, expect notes of Açaí Berry and Cranberry, with a lingering Brown Sugar sweetness on the finish. We can’t wait for you to enjoy.
This coffee was imported through our partners at La Baia Coffee Supply.

Junto Coffee
The dream of long-time coffee professional, Alex Medina, Junto opened its doors in February of 2019. We’re a minority owned company that focuses on both providing intentionally sourced, exceptional products and working with importers and exporters that pay producers a premium for their coffees.
Our founder’s experience in coffee importing has compounded our understanding of the importance of building long-term relationships with producers to guarantee our continued support and ambassadorship of their coffee. Our goal is to cultivate both existing relationships and build new ones with regions that are underrepresented because we know how important it is for all producers to be able to sell their coffees.
Junto was founded with the belief that coffee has the unique ability to bind folx of vastly different origins and creeds. We are driven to honor that by roasting to highlight the inherent qualities of each remarkable coffee and continually creating space for shared experiences and common purpose.
