For years, we’ve partnered with Juan Carlos Arango of Arango Specialty Coffee to bring exceptional microlot coffees from the hills of Colombia to our Montreal roastery and, finally, to your cup. Arango works hands-on with farmers to refine their processes and improve quality. He also shares profits after harvest—providing extra income when it’s needed most.
Brayan Meneses is one of Arango’s producing partners and, in his thirties, is part of a new generation of Colombian growers. Taught by his grandfather, he’s been involved in coffee since childhood and has a passion for farming.
Having completed school to be a computer technician, Brayan now plans to study agronomy. His unique perspective led him to shift away from traditional production and focus on specialty coffee, aiming to improve quality at every stage. As a result of his efforts, his lots have consistently placed in the top 10 at regional competitions.
