We’ve been offering coffee from the Rodríguez family in Bolivia since 2011. Most of that coffee was produced in the established coffee-growing region of Caranavi near the capital, La Paz. This coffee, however, comes from Samaipata, an emerging growing region near the country’s largest city, Santa Cruz, located at the foot of the Bolivian Andes.
Samaipata is verdant and beautiful. A scenic riverside road leads to a picturesque town, and the surrounding valleys boast a subtropical climate, high elevations and fertile soil. 14 years ago, the Rodríguez family recognised the potential of this region and planted the first specialty coffee farm here. It was a big risk, but it paid off – the distinct environment helped produce excellent coffee, and the family went on to establish three more farms and a wet mill in the region.
This coffee is a Caturra selection from two of the Rodríguez’ farms in Samaipata – El Fuerte and Floripondio.
