First impressions don’t get any more memorable than Prima Roastery, by first impressions we should say first collaborations. We had been working with Prima since early in the year to pull together our first ever follow up collaboration. A more in depth look at one of Colombia’s best producers. The team had held the last few kilos of green bean for us, meaning it was also the first time we had to limit our subscriber numbers. Just as collaboration #36 was due to ship in April 2020 we found ourselves in the midst of Lockdown, the original.

Navigating this gauntlet together, we pulling together a memorable collaboration, our only collaboration ever to be published online only. Coincidentally enough, our second collaboration, October 2021 would bloom during Lockdown 2.0 featuring a coffee so good, we’ve shared it with you today.
