COFFEES OF THE MONTH - MAY 2026
Emerson Felipe Narváez was born in Policarpa, Nariño, where he grew up learning from his father’s work in coffee. Though he initially didn't imagine following his father's footstep, choosing to pursue other paths -- working as a soldier, builder, and baker, life eventually led him back to coffee. Introduced to specialty coffee through a cooperative, he became deeply committed to the craft and earned his Q Grader certification.
Emerson’s passion for coffee began at his father's La Palma farm in Policarpa, but he sought a greater challenge. He searched for a new farm, though most were beyond his financial reach, until he found a property that met his criteria despite significant obstacles. Situated at high altitude, it lacked electricity, running water, and road access, reachable only by horseback.
However, recognizing its strategic location near the Pacific and its unique microclimate, Emerson saw its potential. Driven by determination, he began experimenting with various processes and cultivars, including SL28, SL34, Laurina, Pink Bourbon, Gesha, Wush Wush, and Sudan Rume, carefully observing how each adapted to the farm’s altitude and environment.
The Laurina variety is sought after for its low caffeine content (50–60% less than average) and unique profile. It thrives at high elevations, producing a refined cup with mild acidity, delicate floral and fruity notes, and a smooth, balanced sweetness.
This cup is competition-worthy! Emerson truly had a unique vision of the land and the climate, making rare varieties like this Laurina thrive, giving us an unforgettable cup!
