Upward — Rosa Rogelia Castillo

Description

Upward celebrates the women who shape our coffee industry, one bean at a time!

About Rosa Rogelia Castillo

For our second year of Upward, we’re featuring Rosa Rogelia Castillo’s farm in San Ignacio, Peru. Rosa has been a coffee producer her entire life just like her father before her. At 74 years old, she now is teaching the values of loving and protecting the land to her 10 year old grandson who lives with her on the farm.

With each release of Upward, we’ll be supporting a woman-led non-profit. For this release, we’re spotlighting Horizon Wings. $2 from every bag sold will go to directly benefit Horizon Wings and their work in bird rehabilitation.

Origins: San Ignacio, Peru

Taste Notes: Honey, Dark Chocolate, Tangerine
