This coffee is produced by Benedicto Yara and his family in the Huila region of Colombia. The coffee is processed using traditional washed methods, involving careful fermentation and sun-drying on the farm. It offers a flavor profile characterized by notes of dried mango, golden peach, and caramel.
What started as a side hustle for founder Aaron Wood with a small 1kg roaster has grown into a well-respected, full-time business. A New Zealander by origin, Aaron honed his skills as a Green Bean Buyer for Seven Seeds before starting Wood and Co in 2015. Joined by his partner Janna Royse, they run the Melbourne-based business with a "mom and pop" feel, centered on people and relationships. They are dedicated to sourcing and roasting quality coffee, with a focus on showcasing the producers behind the beans.
