This month, we reached out to our good friend and longtime Guatemalan export partner Eduardo Ambrocio, the founder and director of Prisma Coffee Origins. Eduardo is one of the most experienced coffee professionals we know, having spent two decades as part of national coffee body Anacafé's QC team, where he developed strong relationships with people who have since become some of Guatemala's most celebrated producers and cooperatives.⁠

⁠

Because we did our Guatemalan sourcing at arm's length this year, we thought he'd be the best person to chat to for a general overview of the country's most recent harvest. Keep an eye on our offer list as we finalise our available Guatemalan coffees for 2026!

For this month's episode, Rafa talked all things Kenya with MCM's newest team member Joanne, who has been a green coffee buyer in East Africa for over a decade. While sharing stories from the road, Jo gives an update on what we should expect from the 2025/26 harvest. 

Kenya produces some of the most spectacular lots we source, and we’re thrilled with our incoming selection. ⁠Listen to the episode now if you're keen to learn more about them!

This year marks a decade since we began sourcing coffee from our good friend Fabiano Borré with the help of export partner and mentor Silvio Leite.

In this month's episode, Fleur and Toshi talk to Rafa about their trip, sharing their thoughts on what makes our partnerships in Brazil so unique, and reporting on this year's coffees and their quality.

For this month's episode, Beau sat down with Rafa to chat about her recent sourcing trip to Bolivia, sharing insights into the incredible work of the Rodríguez family of Agricafe Bolivia and the Sol de la Mañana producers they work with, as well as talking about the exceptional quality of this year's crop.

This month, Fleur and Rafa spoke to Santa Clara Estate’s Bel Zelaya, who spearheads the family’s scholarship program with sister Katia. Since 2011, the initiative has supported 77 children of the farm’s staff in accessing greater educational opportunities, prioritising girls and young women who would otherwise miss out on going to school.

During our chat, we learned more about how the program works and how to get involved — while Fleur also gave us insights into what we can expect from our forthcoming Guatemalan offerings.

The latest episode of The Green Delivery features one of our favourite coffee people: Dukunde Kawa Managing Director Ernest Nshimyimana!⁠⁠

This month, Rafa and Aislinn looked back at last year’s Supporting Strong Women campaign and caught up with Ernest to get the latest updates on its outcome. During our chat, Ernest spoke beautifully about the women of Rambagirakawa, and the long-term goals of the Musasa Early Childhood Development Centre — reminding us of how special our relationship with the cooperative truly is!

This month, Fleur and Aislinn sat down to talk about their most recent visit to Kenya, to give us some insights into our buying strategy for 2025, following last year's changes to the country's coffee trade.
