We feel that it’s our job to discover each coffee source’s unique characteristics and to honor those places by bringing the best they offer to the market. From the many departments of Colombia to the microregions of Guatemala to the different Kenyan counties, we celebrate that diversity of flavor with our customers and partners through our Select Coffees.<\/span><\/p>\n Select Coffees<\/strong> highlight the distinctive profiles of specific coffee-growing areas, from a departmental or provincial level to one particular community or farm. These coffees showcase a true taste of place and time while offering hardworking producers a quality-based premium on a more significant percentage of their annual harvest. These coffees, measured and scored against competitive sensory parameters, transport us back to our favorite places and remind us of old, good friends.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#ed4441″ divider_weight=”3px” disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ width=”15%” max_width=”100%” module_alignment=”center” height=”5px” hide_on_mobile=”on” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” animation_style=”slide” animation_intensity_slide=”10%” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ text_font=”Raleway||||” text_font_size=”22″ header_font=”Raleway|on|||” text_orientation=”center” module_alignment=”center” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ admin_label=”Row” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ custom_padding=”|||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_slide=”10%” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_aio_extended title=”REGIONAL SELECT” title_underline_on_off=”on” title_underline_style=”center-out” url=”https:\/\/www.cafeimports.com\/offerings?stratified=Regional%20Coffee” use_whole_link_on_off=”on” button_on_off=”on” button_text=”REGIONAL SELECT” button_url=”https:\/\/www.cafeimports.com\/offerings?stratified=Regional%20Coffee” icon_alignment=”left” animation=”dwd-animation-off” background_layout=”dark” text_alignment=”center” img_src=”\/\/cdn.cafeimports.com\/images\/img7705-3.jpg” img_define_height=”300px” img_zoomin_hover_style=”slow” whole_content_animation=”fadeIn” max_width=”300px” admin_label=”REGIONAL SELECT” content_animation=”fadeIn” button_one_animation=”fadeIn” button_one_twod_hover_style=”hvr-grow” button_one_sb_hover_style=”hvr-bubble-top” button_two_animation_on_off=”off” button_two_animation=”fadeIn” button_two_animation_reveal=”off” button_two_twod_hover_style=”hvr-grow” button_two_sb_hover_style=”hvr-bubble-top” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ header_font=”Raleway||||” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_font_size=”0″ header_line_height=”0em” bgtext_text_color=”#000000″ alt_title_text_font=”Raleway||||” alt_title_text_text_color=”#ffffff” alt_title_text_font_size=”37px” custom_button_one=”on” button_one_text_size=”25″ button_one_text_color=”#ffffff” button_one_bg_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.58)” button_one_border_width=”0″ button_one_border_radius=”0″ button_one_font=”Raleway|on|||” button_one_icon=”%%20%%” button_one_icon_color=”#ffffff” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_aio_extended][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ text_font_size=”16″ text_orientation=”justified” module_alignment=”justified” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Individual growing regions contain tremendous diversity of flavor and quality.
