What Five Elephant says about this coffee

The natural Orange Bourbon is the other side of a coffee we know very well. It comes from the same small planting at Finca Majahual as the washed lot, around 1550 to 1600 masl, but the post harvest work stays on the farm and changes the way the fruit is expressed.

Our relationship with Patrick Murray is long enough that we have tasted this project through strong harvests and difficult ones. That context matters to us. We are not buying a coffee once because a sample happened to score well; we are following a variety over time with a producer we know, and learning together where it works and where it does not.

A further 2 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
