COLLECTIVE ART #2
Tasting notes: JASMINE TEA, HONEY, NECTARINE
On May 31st, for the second year in a row during our anniversary celebration, we invited our amazing community to participate in a collective art piece by providing a large blank canvas and colorful markers. The result was a vibrant and collaborative artwork created as a memento of that beautiful day.
This canvas has now become the label image for a new COUP DE VENT coffee, available now.
We want to thank everyone who contributed to this eclectic, vibrant, and radiant piece — a perfect reflection of the coffee inside the bag.
ABOUT THE COFFEE
Located in the Usulután department of El Salvador, Los Pirineos farm is run by fifth-generation producer Diego Baraona. He took over in 2020 following the passing of his father, Gilberto, continuing the family’s 130 year legacy in coffee cultivation.
The farm sits at 1,400 meters above sea level on the slopes of an autonomous volcano, benefitting from a unique microclimate ideal for coffee production and drying. Raised drying beds are positioned between two peaks, where constant breezes allow for slow and controlled drying, perfect for honey and natural process coffees.
Around 20 varieties are grown at Los Pirineos, including Rume Sudan, SL-28, Batian, and Gesha. However, Pacamara and Bourbon make up nearly 80% of the farm’s production. Gilberto had a passion for exploring rare varieties, a tradition Diego proudly continues.
Los Pirineos is also known for its commitment to sustainability. All water used is rain-collected, bees are raised for honey and pollination, and all coffee is shade-grown under trees planted by Gilberto. About 60 full-time employees work year-round, supporting long-term economic stability for local families.
Innovative, quality-driven, and environmentally responsible, Los Pirineos is a model for farming that respects both people and nature.
