This coffee is from Finca Juan Martin in Cauca, Colombia, cultivated at 2050 meters altitude. Operated by Banexport, the farm is research-driven and focuses on varietal-specific cultivation. The Red Striped Bourbon variety is processed using the washed method. This sweet and well-rounded cup features prominent notes of black cherry and fudge, with additional notes of orange and vanilla.
Dan Anderson and Greg Hoyt founded Dogwood Coffee Company in 2010 in Minneapolis, with Anderson making the leap from commercial real estate and Hoyt bringing commodity coffee industry experience. The roastery operates from Tyler Street NE, where production is visible behind a glass wall, and the company runs retail cafes in Northeast Minneapolis, East Lake Street, and St. Paul. A Canadian expansion launched in 2016 with a roasting facility in Winnipeg's Exchange District, housed in a renovated 1921 warehouse. Food & Wine named Dogwood the best coffee roastery in Minnesota. The guiding principle is "Coffee for Others," with an emphasis on giving value to everyone along the supply chain from growers to customers.
