Monteverde is a large area in the Tilaran mountains; the same area as Volcan Arenal. The general area is at altitude and is a Tropical Cloud Forest.

Who Said Guatemalan Coffee is Basic? | The Morning Cup by Café Rica
A lot of times Guatemalan Coffee is thought of as a "Basic" Coffee that is used to balance other bright coffee's that may be too out of the ordinary for the average drinker. It almost is presented as an afterthought. In the era of Ethiopian and other African Coffees being hot and in vogue coffee Guatemalan coffees get dismissed before they even have a chance to speak for themselves. Jackson and Tristan sit down and try a Guatemalan From Birdrock Coffee Roasters to see how this coffee not only can change people's minds about this specific origin but also how the Coffee Industry should be structured based on morals rather than profits.

When looking at a coffee bag there is a lot of verbiages that can be hard to understand. Some companies like to get ultra-specific while others like to be simple. This makes it hard for you to know what you are looking at. Jackson talks a little bit about the Bourbon varietal.

Drinks With Los Hermanos is a Podcast Jackson and Tristan Bredehoft started up to highlight the unsung heroes of the community in a casual way. They will be chatting with local influencers and entrepreneurs to get some information about the everyday life of a community member putting themselves out there to build the community they want. Join them every week to get the ups and downs of being a leader.
Jackson and Tristan talk about their journey of building Cafe Rica, how they started cold brew and their struggles and tools.
