Volcanica buys it through Long Miles Coffee, which works directly with the hill’s farmers. The hill’s location has also made it a target for armed groups during past conflicts, which forced some families off their land. This lot is washed Bourbon grown at about 5,500 feet, and Volcanica lists grapefruit, cocoa and pomegranate. It’s a light roast sold in 16 oz bags.
