To celebrate Balloon's 1st year anniversary we are bringing another Standout Selection coffee to you!

This exemplary coffee is a Gesha variety, named after the founder of Ensambles. Ensambles, a network of Mexican coffee specialists working together to provide great quality coffee to the world.

The coffee is from their own farm, El Equimite, which is holistically organised and is cultivating coffee according to biodynamic principles. The farm is located in Coatepec and is besides growing coffee a natural reserve with the purpose to restore and preserve an ecosystem full of tree species, medical plants and wild life like birds, butterflies and lizards.

Last year Patrizio visited El Equimite during his Mexico trip. Patrizio: "It was just amazing to see Gesha coffee trees growing embedded in an agroforest system and not as a solitaire“. Gibran Cervantes is a very engaged personality and next to his focus on high quality and sustainable coffee he takes care of his environment. Ensambles is one pillar in his society while another pillar is a kids school following the Montessori philosophy.

Our Standout Selection showcases coffees that are unique in their own way. Rare varieties, interesting flavour profiles or limited in availability. Always coffees we are thrilled about sharing with you.
