It feels rich and timeless, like french toast for breakfast, a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice and buttery pain au chocolat from your favourite French bakery.
Coffee Story
Quebrada Grande comes to us from the Calderon family, the same award-winning producer Ricardo, whom we have worked with for over seven years with lots from El Vendaval and Los Girasoles. The Calderon family has worked in the Dota Valley in Tarrazu, Costa Rica, for three generations. His family owns multiple farms and their micro mill Los Angeles, where they process coffee from their farms. This year, Detour has purchased almost 20% of Quebrada Grande farms’ total production, which sits at the extremely high elevation of approximately 1850 to 2000 MASL in some areas.
