Colombia Jorge Rojas Coffee // Raspberry, Fudgesicle, '95 Bulls

This season’s caturra is so big, rich, and triumphant that it seemed to physically occupy more space than anything else on the cupping table. We’re talking red fruit royalty, goopy chocolate decadence, and a fearless finish. Once again, we’re happily reminded that Jorge never brings less than his best, and trust that his sticker would not pay homage to the legendary wearers of the jersey it’s based upon if we did not mean it.

Jorge rojas is one of the absolute best partners to repeatedly grace the Touchy Coffee menu, and we’re mighty psyched every time he runs it back.

GREEN COFFEE SOURCING
We find coffees that people care about. Care is such an important part of the journey from seed to cup and is also the part most immediately felt. We pay attention to the people and stories behind the coffee because when the seeds are sown with care we know that it will be illuminated on the cupping table. This is the coffee that quite literally gets us out of bed in the morning in a rush to share it with our community. When we accept stewardship of this luminous thing we enter into a relationship with the farmersand producers. Our responsibility is to contribute meaningfully to their short-term and long-term success. We do this by ensuring that adequate prices are paid to farmers for growing these beautiful coffees, supporting and encouraging healthy, sustainable agricultural and environmental practices and forging long-lasting partnerships with producers that share our commitment to quality.
IN YOUR CUP :)
   
When we roast coffee our goal is simple, but achieving it is complex. The plant’s genetic makeup, the earth underneath it, the careful tending and processing of the fruit – all of the things that make this coffee so special should be felt by you, the last hand to touch it. Roasting is the magic that gets the specialness of the raw coffee into your cup. Our minimal intervention ethos ironically requires an intensive methodology of precisely calibrating, measuring and refining in service of drawing out and highlighting the coffee’s best attributes. Our methods and the equipment we use are high-tech and empirical but we like to feel our way through the process in equal measure. If, when the coffee finds its way to your cup, you feel connected at least in some small way to the hand that planted the seed, we consider that the ultimate success.
