A unique, delicious, and well-sourced coffee accompanied with an artwork collab by our friend \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/alyssamariahaviles\" title=\"Artist Alyssa Aviles Instagram page\"\u003eAlyssa Aviles\u003c\/a\u003e.

This coffee is the work of a seasoned professional whose decades of experience gave him the ability and humility to produce this masterwork. Angel Ortega has grown coffee since his teen years in Kennedy, his local communuity in coffee-famous Huila. Kennedy has not always been perfectly suited for coffee growing, but Angel and his family had success since the 80's planting the seed for a lifetime of success in coffee.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom breaking out on his own at 24 to start his own farm, to adopting the emerging wave of specialty coffee in the early 2000's with a group of like-minded producers, Angel has seen the game of coffee cultivation and selling shift multiple times throughout his life. What was once \"easy,\" by comparison, has become increasingly challenging but also more rewarding. From his starts in specialty selling as one of many faces in \"blend\" lots, Angel sold his first micro-lot with his own name on it in 2018 and decided to share his wealth of knowledge by co-founding a grower's collective called Monkaaba in 2020. He now receives the highest prices for coffee he ever has.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFast-forward to this gesha. A highly difficult varietal to produce and market, yet so rewarding for those brave enough to invest in it to try to unlock its elusive secrets. Angel did his best to supercharge this offering: electing to do an anaerobic washed process while cofermenting this coffee with actual pineapple chunks, not pineapple flavoring. The master's hand leads to this coffee not having any of the artifical flavors usually associated with experimental processing. Instead, the coffee has a rich base of deep chocolate and stone fruit notes that are backed up by the slightly ferment-y depth of tepache, Mexican pineapple \"wine.\" It's hard to brew a bad cup of this, but this is also a coffee that's fantastic for experimentation. From your favorite pourover method, to flash brew or cold brew.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWe also want to highlight Alyssa Aviles, a Mission-based artist and longtime friend of Grand Coffee who gratefully agreed to collaborate with us on the artwork for this coffee. This label is inspired by her travels in Nicaragua, the parallels of the Mission to Central America, and her dog Chano.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn her own words: \u003cem\u003e\"\u003cspan id=\"m_-7417863966265161532gmail-docs-internal-guid-5f1f704b-7fff-0c71-d400-1728f0278d36\"\u003eAlyssa Aviles is a multidisciplinary artist and arts educator based in San Francisco, CA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan id=\"m_-7417863966265161532gmail-docs-internal-guid-b0b54db0-7fff-6dff-91e2-b83d064cc7a4\"\u003e Her work draws from personal and historical archives to build an iconography of place and memory, and is largely influenced by generations of lineage in San Francisco’s Mission District. Grand holds a special place in Alyssa's heart as a nexus of her many worlds. From bruja allegations to Chano's favorite sidewalk, Grand is a place where time disappears, baristas become family and the abject of the neighborhood turns whimsical.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grand Coffee SF","offers":[{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":46429119873121,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ French Press","offer_id":46429119905889,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Chemex","offer_id":46429119938657,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Pour Over","offer_id":46429119971425,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Auto Dripper","offer_id":46429120004193,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Aeropress","offer_id":46429120036961,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 Ounce Standard Bag \/ Espresso","offer_id":46429120069729,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":46429120102497,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ French Press","offer_id":46429120135265,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Chemex","offer_id":46429120168033,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Pour Over","offer_id":46429120200801,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Auto Dripper","offer_id":46429120233569,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Aeropress","offer_id":46429120266337,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5# Bulk Bag \/ Espresso","offer_id":46429120299105,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0102\/1660\/3745\/files\/GC_BAG5_CPG_2026.png?v=1787431738","url":"https:\/\/www.grandcoffeesf.com\/products\/colombia-pina-gesha-coferment","provider":"Grand Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
