    Roaster’s Notes
    La Tortuga, a community blend produced by an association of small coffee farmers on the Galápagos Islands, offers a fascinating example of the impact of unique microclimates on specialty coffee production. While produced at elevations far below what is typically considered appropriate for specialty coffee production, this coffee defies expectations thanks to the fortuitous environmental impact of the Humboldt Current.
