Swerl Roastery is thrilled to present the second harvest of Luis Aguirre's exceptional lot. For those who had the opportunity to taste it last year, the team is excited to share that this year’s harvest has surpassed expectations—truly a stellar lot.

When Swerl first acquired last year’s harvest, Luis Aguirre was relatively new to the world of specialty coffee. At that time, the variety he was cultivating remained unidentified and was initially believed to be a hybrid. However, following genetic testing conducted by LaREB, it has been confirmed that the variety is indeed Pink Bourbon—also known as Rosado.

This lot was sourced through LaREB, a cooperative made up of approximately 60 producers. Founded and operated by producers themselves, LaREB is dedicated to rigorous quality control and offers robust support to its members, especially those working with smaller lots, helping bring their coffees to the international stage.

By operating without intermediaries, LaREB independently handles shipping, warehousing, financing, and sales. This structure ensures that 80% to 90% of profits remain in Colombia, directly supporting the producers and strengthening the local economy.

Swerl Roastery is proud to stand behind this sustainable, producer-led model and looks forward to sharing this remarkable harvest with coffee lovers everywhere.
