What is so special about this coffee?

Blue Pine coffee is distinguished by its refined washed process, which includes a meticulous fermentation that brings out its rich cupping notes of red berries, toasted almond, cocoa, and a hint of tropical fruit.

Cultivated at 1,400 meters in the nutrient-dense soil of Haiti, this coffee benefits from a consistent tropical climate with optimal rainfall and the natural shade of indigenous vegetation. The result is a balanced, medium-bodied coffee with a lingering, smooth sweetness, ideal for pour-over, French press, and espresso methods.

Haitian coffee, a gem from the Caribbean

Similar to Jamaica, Haiti also has a unique micro-climate that benefits the production of coffee; it is also the most mountainous country in the Caribbean. The coffee has a distinctive and unforgettable taste due to its healthy, volcanic, and rich soils. The coffee's Ethiopian roots heavily influence the traditions of the Haitian farmers when cultivating, making the coffee refined and rich in flavor.
