About Efren Guzman of Colombia
Efren Guzman farm has been passed down from generation to generation with the newest crop producing an exceptional Castillo that was graded at 87 points. No doubt the culture of farmers in the Los Alpes growing other fruit crops to consume and helping each other with construction tasks has made it possible for these farmers to be sustainable like Efren.

KLVN Coffee Lab
We're a specialty coffee roaster in Pittsburgh PA focused on harnessing the inherent and transportive qualities that coffee possesses from its beginning. We roast fresh high quality beans from around the world on a Probat UG 15 Retro gas drum roaster. With our customers in mind, we roast with the aim for clarity and longevity in flavor to last past even 6 weeks from the roast date. Over several weeks we sample roast 10-15 samples bi-weekly until we find the right selection for our customers. When selecting coffee we aim to find high quality washed arabica beans that are below 15% water activity and range from 86-98 points on the SCA cupping scale. Starting out with high quality beans helps us when we roast to a light medium development to express fruit forward note(s) while keeping the green note(s) minimized. KLVN Coffee Lab roasting style was inspired by Nordic Roasting style, then shortly evolved into our own style that presents similar characteristics but more developed. It's common for customers to walk into our roaster every 6 weeks to buy 2-3 bags for personal use.
