Brian just returned from a trip to Colombia, visiting Cofinet in the Quindio region. While there, he had lunch with Luz Helena Salazar, owner of Maracay - producer of several coffees in the DoubleShot lineup over the past couple years. Felipe Arcila, co-owner of Cofinet sat down for an interview on the farm. While there, some turmoil came to a head (Brian's head, specifically) about coffee prices and what other roasters are doing to keep costs down. Costs at DoubleShot are not going down.
We cut out a fairly aggressive rant that spontaneously erupted during recording, and Mark and Brian went back for a stab at more civil discussions about what set Brian off in the first session. Listen at your own risk.
