From the producer

Juana Escobar Gaspar is a CODECH member and single-farmer producer near Concepción Huista. CODECH's seasonal quality program separates top deliveries so individual farmers can receive a premium.

From the roaster

Counter Culture Coffee is a quality-focused, B Corp certified roaster that emphasizes transparent trade and sustainable sourcing practices.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This lot gives a named farmer's delivery its own identity rather than blending it into a regional coffee. Counter Culture says Juana's lots repeatedly rank among CODECH's best seasonal deliveries.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
PRODUCER IDENTITY

Updated the producer's documented full name to Juana Escobar Gaspar.

02
FARM CAUTION

Removed the farm relationship because the official source does not disclose the farm's name.

03
CURRENT CROP

Added the January to March 2026 harvest, 1,728-meter elevation, washed process and four-cultivar mix.

What was added?

Verified country, region, town, producer, harvest, altitude, process, cultivar mix and tasting notes.

What wasn't added?

No named farm or single variety relation was added. Fermentation and drying details are not disclosed.

Why it matters

A producer's name should not be presented as a farm name unless the source actually identifies it that way.

What you might taste

Counter Culture lists black cherry, plum and citrus.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

What we found

Non-exact, seller, directory, generic-roaster, different-release, duplicate, and older-release sources were excluded. No qualifying independent exact-release review remains.
