About This Coffee

This coffee is a single origin from Huila, Colombia, produced by La Muralla—an informal group of five young producers in San Agustín. The coffee is made from Bourbon Aji variety beans and undergoes a washed anaerobic process, combining traditional washed processing with anaerobic fermentation in sealed containers. The result is a cup featuring malic acidity reminiscent of apple and pear, alongside big sweetness and delicate floral aromatics.

Loveless Coffees

Loveless Coffees was founded in 2017 by Will Douglas and Joe Wieczorek under the original name Spectrum Coffees, roasting initially in Red Hook before relocating to Bushwick, Brooklyn. The company roasts on a Loring Falcon, which runs 30 percent more efficiently on gas than standard equipment, and follows what it calls a New York Nordic style: light to medium roasts with pronounced clarity, sweetness, and structure shaped by training in Norway and years behind the bar in New York. Loveless publishes the import prices it pays for coffee and, when possible, the per pound price paid directly to producers. The Bushwick café on Central Avenue serves the roastery's coffees alongside house baked pastries, and the team has earned recognition at public cuppings as far afield as Barcelona.
