Coffee Description
Suriname is a naturally processed lot from the fan-favorite Malacara B Farm. It features the classic attributes of a Central American coffee, but with a tropical twist. We’re tasting chocolate, walnut, apple pie (filling and crust). It’s a fun-drinking, clean, approachable-yet-nuanced coffee.

About Dumont Family of El Salvador
The Malacara Farms are experienced when it comes to the specialty coffee scene. Since the farm was divided up in 1995 into farms A, B, .C, farm owner Roberto Dumont has seen his farm win many accolades. This lot comes from Malacara Farm B, which is planted under a shade canopy and includes several varieties; Bourbon, Typica, Pacas, and Pacamara. This lot is just Bourbon and comes from just a single day of harvest (called a Tablon).

Penstock Coffee Roasters
We source as much of our coffee as direct as possible. Currently, farm direct coffee accounts for all our Central and most of our South American coffees or about 85% of the coffee we roast. Direct for us means we select the lot and we determine the price, quantity, and quality of the lot directly with the farm or mill owner. For the other 15%, we rely on certified coffee (Organic, Fair Trade, Bird Friendly, Rainforest Alliance, etc.) which guarantees a minimum wage and minimum sustainability, or we purchase stellar cupping lots, i.e., game changing coffee in terms of taste, from mills who are innovative in processing, or from growers whom we intend or hope to purchase directly.
