This single-origin coffee is produced by Vicente Guevara Cotrina at the El Chirimoyo farm in the Cajamarca region of Peru. Grown at an altitude of 2248 meters, this coffee consists of Castillo and Caturra varieties. It undergoes a washed process, including a 60-hour fermentation in cement tanks followed by drying in covered solar drying houses. The resulting cup is clean and balanced, featuring distinct flavor notes of caramel, plum, and banana.
Carrier Roasting Co. was founded in 2011 by Ben Doxtator in Northfield, Vermont. The roastery operates a vintage Probat L12, producing lighter roast profiles designed to highlight origin characteristics in small batches. Sourcing is built on direct trade relationships with personal connections to farmers and importers, and the range includes single origin coffees and seasonal micro lots. Vermont Magazine named Carrier the best coffee roaster in the state. The café at Depot Square serves espresso, pour over, and retail beans, and the wholesale side supplies cafés and restaurants throughout Vermont.
